Dynamic sliding mode control (DSMC) of nonlinear systems using neural networks is proposed. In DSMC the chattering is removed due to the integrator which is placed before the input control signal of the plant. However, in DSMC the augmented system is one dimension bigger than the actual system i.e. the states number of augmented system is more than the actual system and then to control of such ...

In this paper, we have exploited the first-order sliding mode control method to track the ECG data of the human heart by three different nonlinear control laws. In order to lessen the intrinsic chattering of the classic sliding mode control system, smooth function approximations of the control input, by means of the hyperbolic tangent and the saturation function, were used. The fast Fourier tra...

in this paper a mesh-free model of the functionally graded material (fgm) plate is presented.  the piezoelectric material as a sensor and actuator has been distributed on the top and bottom of the plate, respectively. the formulation of the problem is based on the classical laminated plate theory (clpt) and the principle of virtual displacements. moreover, the particle swarm optimization (pso) ...
