Two different control algorithms, sliding mode and MPC (Model Predictive Control) are employed to analyse the performance of a linear vehicle model equipped with an ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) system. Both controllers are analysed under critical TM (Transitional Maneuvers) to investigate their suitability for the ACC system. The simulation results, for the same scenario, from both controllers...

This paper focuses on a second order sliding mode based direct power controller (SOSM-DPC) of a three-phase grid-connected voltage source converter (VSC). The proposed control scheme combined with fuzzy logic aims at regulating the DC-link voltage of the converter and precisely tracking arbitrary power references, in order to easily control the system’s power factor. Therefore measures are prop...

Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) has been successfully established in control systems engineering in the recent years, in other hand, Sliding Mode Control (SMC) is an active area in control research. The combination of this tow fields called Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control (FSMC) techniques to exploit the superior sides of these two controllers have drawn the attention of the scientific community. In this ...

Soft computing methodologies, when used in combination with sliding-mode control (SMC) systems, aim to alleviate implementation difficulties of SMCs or to intelligently tune the controller parameters. In this paper, it is proposed to combine adaptive fuzzy systems with SMCs to solve the chattering problem of sliding-mode control for robotic applications. In the design of the controller, special...

This paper proposes a new sliding surface for controlling Semi-Bridgeless Boost Converter (SBBC) which simultaneously performs Power Factor Correction (PFC) and DC bus regulation. The proposed is composed of three terms: First, normalized voltage error term controls the rejects disturbances. In this case, normalization was performed increasing system robustness during start-up large Second, an ...

The regulation by sliding mode control (SMC) is recognized for its qualities of robustness and dynamic response. This article will briefly talk about the regulation principles by sliding mode as well as the application of this approach to the adjustment of a speed control DC motor bench using the TY36A/EV unit. This unit, from Electronica Veneta products, uses a PID controller to control the sp...

This paper investigates decentralized sliding mode control (SMC) of multi-agent cooperative systems when the inter-agent communication delay cannot be neglected. A new algorithm is proposed to control and maintain the cooperation objectives when large communication delays occur due to faulty network conditions. The faulty agents perform prediction of all other agents in order to perform decentr...

Geared Dc motors can be controlled by many controllers which may include the conventional PID controllers and various other techniques. The sliding mode control is one of the good controllers which can be used for conditions like disturbances and parameter variations. The system responses are compared when PID controller is applied to the system. SMC methods yield nonlinear controllers which ar...

In this paper, we are concerned with a cascade of ODE-wave systems with the control actuator-matched disturbance at the boundary of the wave equation. We use the sliding mode control (SMC) technique and the active disturbance rejection control method to overcome the disturbance, respectively. By the SMC approach, the disturbance is supposed to be bounded only. The existence and uniqueness of so...

A new sliding mode control (SMC) approach, output variables only, single phase only and chattering phenomenon free, is presented for a class of mismatched uncertain large-scale systems. For a new multitask SMC, it is not required that the system states are available. Moreover, the sliding function in this study just depends on output variables. Using an exponential type� sliding surface, the sy...
