The paper by Yan, Spurgeon, and Edwards uses the standard linear sliding mode procedure—outlined in the books of [Edwards and Spurgeon 1998, Utkin 1992] for example— along with an observer, to stabilise a class of systems whose linearisation is stabilisable using the standard sliding mode approach, and whose nonlinearities and uncertainties have certain structure. This structure, as well as mod...

This paper develops a cascaded sliding mode observer method to reconstruct actuator faults for a class of descriptor linear systems. Based on a new canonical form, a novel design method is presented to discuss the existence conditions of the sliding mode observer. Furthermore, the proposed method is extended to general descriptor linear systems with actuator faults. Finally, the effectiveness o...

Control of a class of uncertain nonlinear systems, which estimates unavailable state variables, is considered. A new approach for robust tracking control problem of satellite for large rotational maneuvers is presented in this paper. The features of this approach include a strong algorithm to estimate attitude, based on discrete extended Kalman filter combined with a continuous extended Kalman ...

The problem of the realization of integral sliding mode controllers based only on output information is discussed. The implementation of an output integral sliding mode controller ensures insensitivity of the state trajectory with respect to the matched uncertainties from the initial time moment. In the case when the number of inputs is more than or equal to the number of outputs, the closed lo...

A new close loop current model flux observer is designed to estimate the rotor flux, position and velocity of an induction machine. The current observer includes carefully designed sliding mode functions which are derivative of the fluxes along the and axes. Therefore, when the estimated current converges to the measured one, the flux estimation is a mere integration of the sliding mode functio...

One of the robust fault detection filter (RFDF) designing method is based on sliding-mode theory. The main purpose of our study is to introduce an innovative simplified reference residual model generator to formulate the RFDF as a sliding-mode observer without any manipulation package or transformation matrix, through which the generated residual signals can be evaluated. So the proposed design...

Abstract A sliding mode control (SMC) with improved exponent reaching law based on disturbance observer (DOB) is proposed for the robot control, to solve the problem of robot system which is vulnerability to external interferences and has some uncertainties. The disturbance observer (DOB) would detect and compensate external disturbances and uncertainties in the robot system, so that the moveme...

Based on general proportional integral (GPI) observers and sliding mode control technique, a robust control method is proposed for the master-slave synchronization of chaotic systems in the presence of parameter uncertainty and with partially measurable output signal. By using GPI observer, the master dynamics are reconstructed by the observations from a measurable output under the differential...
