background: the ob­jective of this study was to find an appropriate approach to asymptomatic malaria in elimination setting through a systematic review. methods: a broad search was conducted to find articles with the words ‘malaria’ in their titles and ‘asymptomatic’ or ‘submicroscopic’ in their texts, irrespective of the type of study conducted. the cochrane, medline/pubmed, and scopus databas...

Original scientific paper In this paper, a modified guidance and control sliding mode controller (MGCSMC) method is proposed in a guided missile system. The modified sliding mode controller (MSMC) algorithm is adopted to enable the missile to reach the desired target within a short period of time. The target always makes high manoeuvres when the missile is close to it. This issue has been treat...

This paper proposes a novel chattering free neuro‐sliding mode controller for the trajectory tracking control of two degrees of freedom (DOF) parallel manipulators which have a complicated dynamic model, including modelling uncertainties, frictional uncertainties and external disturbances. A feedforward neural network (NN) is combined with an error estimator to...

Abstract: In order to solve chattering problem of conventional sliding mode observer (SMO), this paper proposes a exponential reaching law sliding mode observer (ERL-SMO) for a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) which substitutes exponential reaching law for constant reaching law. The ERL-SMO estimates the rotor position and the angular velocity from the back electromotive force (EMF) ba...

A second-order discrete-time sliding mode observer (DSMO)-based method is proposed to estimate the state of charge (SOC) of a Li-ion battery. Unlike the first-order sliding mode approach, the proposed method eliminates the chattering phenomenon in SOC estimation. Further, a battery model with a dynamic resistance is also proposed to improve the accuracy of the battery model. Similar to actual b...

Sliding mode controller (SMC) is a significant nonlinear controller under condition of partly uncertain dynamic parameters of system. This controller is used to control of highly nonlinear systems especially for robot manipulators, because this controller is a robust and stable. Conversely, pure sliding mode controller is used in many applications; it has two important drawbacks namely; chatter...

─ This paper provides new analytic tools for a rigorous control formulation and stability analysis of sliding modemultimodel controller (SM-MMC). In this way to minimise the chattering effect we will adopt as a starting point the multimodel approach to change the commutation of the sliding mode control (SMC) into fusion using a first order then a high order sliding mode control with single slid...

This paper deals with the design of a moving sliding surface in a variable structure plant for a second order system. The chattering phenomena is also dealt with during the switching process for an unstable sliding surface condition. The simulation examples considered in this paper shows the effectiveness of the sliding mode control method used for the design of the moving sliding surfaces. A s...

Sliding mode control, due to its robustness against modelling imprecisions and external disturbances, has been successfully employed to the dynamic positioning of remotely operated underwater vehicles. In order to improve the performance of the complete system, the discontinuity in the control law must be smoothed out to avoid the undesirable chattering effects. The adoption of a properly desig...

In this paper, a High Order Sliding Modes Control (HOSMC) is used to control TAIPAN, a torpedo shaped AUV from LIRMM, France. The implementation of a Second Order Sliding Mode controller in this system is the main contribution of this work. Sliding Mode Control (SMC) is adequate for controlling AUVs, since it offers robustness in the presence of uncertainties parameters and environmental distur...
