This paper presents a robust control scheme for distributed generations (DGs) in islanded mode operation of a microgrid (MG). In this strategy, assuming a dynamic slack bus with constant voltage magnitude and phase angle, nonlinear equations of the MG are solved in the slack-voltage-oriented synchronous reference frame, and the instantaneous active and reactive power reference for the slack bus...

A generalized model-based sliding mode controller for robot trajectory tracking is proposed, which incorporates the full-order, nonlinear, uncertain actuator dynamics in control law design. The problem of chattering is alleviated by replacing the discontinuous sliding mode control in the vicinity of the sliding mode by a high gain, continuous controller, resulting in dual mode control. Independ...

A new design approach for an adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller (AFSMC) for linear systems with mismatched time-varying uncertainties is presented. The coefficient matrix of the sliding function can be designed to satisfy a sliding coefficient matching condition provided time-varying uncertainties are bounded. With the sliding coefficient matching condition satisfied, an AFSMC is proposed t...

In this chapter we will study the robust performance control based-on integral sliding-mode for system with nonlinearities and perturbations that consist of external disturbances and model uncertainties of great possibility time-varying manner. Sliding-mode control is one of robust control methodologies that deal with both linear and nonlinear systems, known for over four decades (El-Ghezawi et...

The aim of this paper is to design a Fractional Order Sliding Mode Controllers (FOSMC)for a class of DC-DC converters such as boost and buck converters. Firstly, the control lawis designed with respect to the properties of fractional calculus, the design yields an equiv-alent control term with an addition of discontinuous (attractive) control law. Secondly, themathematical proof of the stabilit...

For a class of linear MIMO uncertain systems, a dynamic output feedback sliding mode control algorithm that avoids the chattering problem and high gain control is proposed in this paper. Without using any differentiator, we develop a modified asymptotically stable second order sliding mode control law in which the developed controller can guarantee the finite time convergence to the sliding mod...

A systematic way to combine adaptive control and sliding mode control (SMC) for trajectory tracking of robot manipulators in the presence of parametric uncertainties and uncertain nonlinearities is developed. Continuous sliding mode controllers without reaching transients and chattering problems are rst developed by using a dynamic sliding mode. Transient performance is guaranteed and globally ...

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...
