This paper presents the design of an integral sliding-mode controller for a piezoelectric-actuated system. The sliding-mode disturbance (uncertainty) estimation and compensation scheme is used. The nonlinear piezoelectric-actuated system is modeled as a first order linear model coupled with a hysteresis. When the model is identified, the hysteresis nonlinearity is linearized then the linear sys...

Sliding mode controller for a vehicle active suspension system is designed in this study. The widely used quarter car model is preferred and it is aimed to improve the ride comfort of the passengers. The effect of the actuator time delay, which may arise due to the information processing, sensors or actuator dynamics, is also taken into account during the design of the controller. A sliding mod...

This paper presents a particle swarm optimization (PSO)-based neuro-sliding mode controller for the transient stability enhancement of multimachine power systems with unified power flow controller (UPFC). The UPFC is modeled as controllable loads. These controllable parameters are obtained using the sliding mode control (SMC) strategy. A PSO-based single neuron controller is used to adapt the p...

In this paper, a sliding mode control system with a predictive proportional-integral-derivative (PPID-SMC) sliding surface is proposed. A robust sliding mode controller is suggested to track the desired trajectory despite uncertainty, set point variations, and external disturbances. The proposed sliding mode controller is chosen to ensure the stability of overall dynamics during the reaching ph...

The double integral sliding mode synchronization method is studied for a class of super chaotic systems. Both the unknown parameters and uncertain nonlinear functions are considered for the driven and response chaotic systems. It is worthy pointing out that a kind of input nonlinearity is taken into consideration when the synchronization controller is designed. The uncertainties are very comple...

In this paper, under the existence of system uncertainties, external disturbances, and input nonlinearity, global finite time synchronization between two identical attractors which belong to a class of second-order chaotic nonlinear gyros are achieved by considering a method of continuous smooth second-order sliding mode control (HOAMSC). It is proved that the proposed controller is robust to m...

This paper presents a fuzzy controller for high-speeds four-wheel-steering vehicles based on the state feedback and the sliding-mode control methods. In the proposed fuzzy controller, the consequent part of the fuzzy IF-THEN rules consists of either a sliding-mode controller or a state-feedback controller. Also, it will be proved that, if every fuzzy rule is stable in the sense of Lyapunov for ...

This paper proposes a higher order sliding mode controller for uncertain robot manipulators. The motivation for using high order sliding mode mainly relies on its appreciable features, such as high precision and elimination of chattering in addition that assure the same performance of conventional sliding mode like robustness. Instead of a regular control input, the derivative of the control in...

−This study mainly focuses on the development of a total sliding-mode control (TSMC) strategy for a Chua’s chaotic circuit. The TSMC scheme, which is insensitive to uncertainties including parameter variations and external disturbance in the whole control process, comprises the baseline model design and the curbing controller design. In the baseline model design a computed torque controller is ...

diabetes is considered as a global affecting disease with an increasing contribution to both mortality rate and cost damage in the society. therefore, tight control of blood glucose levels has gained significant attention over the decades. this paper proposes a method for blood glucose level regulation in type 1 diabetics. the control strategy is based on combining the fuzzy logic theory and si...
