The conventional sliding mode controller needs the exact knowledge of system state measurements. In this study, nonlinear second order systems with unmeasured system states and bounded external disturbances are considered. The sliding mode observer based on nonlinear observation error dynamics is considered and the observer gain is adjusted by using a support vector machine based plant model. F...

Sliding mode control has been used extensively in robotics to cope with parametric uncertainty and hard nonlinearities, in particular for timedelay teleoperators, which have gained gradual acceptance due to technological advancements. However, since the slave teleoperator is in contact with a rigid environment, the slave controller requires a free of chattering control strategy, thus making fir...

We show that the well-known formula by Ackermann and Utkin can be generalized to the case of higher-order sliding modes. By interpreting the eigenvalue assignment of the sliding dynamics as a zero-placement problem, the generalization becomes straightforward and the proof is greatly simplified. The generalized formula retains the simplicity of the original one while allowing to construct the sl...

In this paper, a sliding mode fuzzy controller for a nonholonomic wheeled mobile robot is proposed for tracking desired trajectories. We know that sliding mode control can deal with non linearities of control system and is robust. However, it has drawbacks such as a chattering. So, we introduce a fuzzy logic in order to reduce this phenomenon. Two sliding mode fuzzy controllers (SMFC) are descr...

This paper proposes a second-order nonsingular terminal sliding mode decomposed control method for multivariable linear systems with internal parameter uncertainties and external disturbances. First, the systems are converted into the block controllable form, consisting of an input-output subsystem and a stable internal dynamic subsystem. A special second-order nonsingular terminal sliding mode...

The synchronization between fractional-order hyperchaotic systems and integer-order hyperchaotic systems via sliding mode controller is investigated. By designing an active sliding mode controller and choosing proper control parameters, the drive and response systems are synchronized. Synchronization between the fractional-order Chen chaotic system and the integer-order Chen chaotic system and ...

Parameter identification scheme and discrete-time adaptive sliding-mode controller applied to Pioneer 3-DX wheeled mobile robot (WMR) are presented in this paper. The dynamical model for mobile robot with one pair of active wheels, time–varying mass and moment of inertia have been used in slidingmode control. Two sliding-mode controllers corresponding to angular and position motion have been de...

Nonlinear control of the squirrel induction motor is designed using sliding mode theory. The developed approach leads to the design of a sliding mode controller in order to linearize the behaviour of an induction motor. The second problem described in the paper is decoupling between two physical outputs: the rotor speed and the rotor flux modulus. The sliding mode tools allow us to separate the...

In this paper, we extend the sliding mode idea to a class of unmatched uncertain variable structure systems. This method is achieved with introducing a new terminal sliding variable and the finite time stability of proposed method is proved using a new particular finite time condition in both reaching and sliding phases. In reaching phase new sliding mode controller is derived to guarantee the ...
