Sliding mode (SM) and Proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller are implemented for Buck converter in a continuous conduction mode. A closed-loop controller system is implemented and goes through the transient time response of buck converter. Sliding mode controller is worked as robust controller and can be used to reduce the Delay time and settling time of the system. In power drives c...

An Integral Nested Sliding Mode Control (INSMC) is proposed for n-link robotic manipulators tracking problem by employing Integral Sliding Mode (ISM) and Nested Sliding Mode (NSM) concepts. This controller has the robustness of NSM against matched and no matched perturbations, and the capability of ISM to reduce the sliding functions gains. Application to a two-link planar robot manipulator is ...

This paper describes the robust optimal incremental motion control of a current  sensorless synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM), which can be specified by any desired speed profile. The control scheme is a combination of conventional linear quadratic (LQ) feedback control method and sliding mode control (SMC). A novel sliding switching surface is employed first, that makes the states of the Sy...

This paper designs an adaptive sliding mode dynamic controller for the trajectory tracking of wheeled mobile robot. First, a kinematic controller based on backstepping technique is introduced to make the WMR follow a reference trajectory. Secondly, an adaptive sliding-mode dynamic controller (ASMDC) is proposed to make the actual velocity of the WMR reach the velocity command even in presence o...

Under-actuated nonlinear dynamic systems trajectory tracking, such as space robots and manipulators with structural flexibility, has recently been investigated for hierarchical sliding mode control since these systems require complex computations. However, the instability phenomena possibly occur especially for long-term operations. In this paper, a new design approach of an adaptive fuzzy hier...

In this paper, the modified optimal sliding mode control with a proposed method to design a sliding surface is presented. Because of the inability of the previous approach of the sliding mode method to design a bounded and suitable input, the new variation is proposed in the sliding manifold to obviate problems in a structural system. Although the sliding mode control is a powerful method to re...
