Accuracy of tracking and robustness are very important specifications in control of parallel robots. Classical control methods could not satisfy these requirements in parallel robots, simultaneously. Sliding mode control solves problems of accurate tracking, but it is not robust enough because of influence of chattering phenomena. Implementation of fuzzy logic in sliding mode enhances robustnes...

In this paper, a novel approach for two-loop control of the DC-DC Ćuk converter in discontinuousconduction mode is presented using a sliding mode controller. The proposed controller can regulatethe output of the converter in a wide range of input voltage and load resistance. Controllerparameters are selected using PSO algorithms. In order to verify the accuracy and efficiency of thedeveloped sl...

A laser diode package is mounted on an optical pickup head actuator. The laser diode package is used to sense the displacement of a moving target by self-mixing interference signals. A sliding mode based fuzzy control method is developed to achieve fast response of the optical pickup head actuator, which is driven in a focusing direction. Simulation results show the proposed method performs bet...

In this paper, we will propose a cooperative control approach that is based on the Synthesize of self-tuning neural network with sliding mode control methodology. The main purpose is to eliminate the chattering phenomenon such that the seesaw system has a superior fixed position and tracking response. Moreover, the system performance obtained via the method of synthesize neural network with SMC...

This paper proposes a stand-alone photovoltaic (PV) system based on a DC-DC positive output super lift Luo (POSLL) converter. A conventional sliding mode control, a sliding mode controller using a simple sign function and a linear controller using proportional integrator (PI) are used for the control of the PV panel voltage and POSLL converter inductor current and these methods are compared tog...

This paper presents the adaptive control scheme with sliding mode compensator for vibration control problem in the presence of disturbance. The dynamic model of the flexible cantilever beam using finite element modeling is derived. The adaptive control with sliding mode compensator using output feedback for output tracking is developed to reject the external disturbance, and to improve the trac...

Presented is a method of smooth sliding mode control design to provide for an asymptotic second-order sliding mode on the selected sliding surface. The control law is a nonlinear dynamic feedback that in absence of unknown disturbances provides for an asymptotic second-order sliding mode. Application of the second-order disturbance observer in a combination with the proposed continuous control ...

This paper examines the practical design issues of sliding mode controllers as applied to the control of DC– DC converters. A comprehensive review of the relevant literature is first provided. Major problems that prevent the use of sliding mode control in DC–DC converter for industrial applications and their possible solutions are discussed. Performance of sliding mode control is compared with ...

In this paper, we will propose a cooperative control approach that is based on the hybrid grey-neural network with sliding mode control (HGNS) methodology.

Moreover, the system performance obtained via the method of the HGNS can be improved. In the present appr...

This paper shows the development of a Predictive Sliding Mode Controller (PSMC). The proposed controller blends the design of Sliding Mode Control (SMC) with Model Predictive Control (MPC). The combination of SMC and MPC improves the performance of these two control laws. The designed control strategy has stronger robustness and chattering reduction property to conquer within the system uncerta...
