this paper introduces an indirect adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller as a power system stabilizer for damping local and inter-area modes of oscillations of multi-machine power systems. this controller is designed based on the combination of sliding mode controller and the fuzzy logic systems. the fuzzy systems are used to approximate the unknown functions of power system model. generator sp...

We present a formula that computes the output of an R-controllable, regular, single-input linear timeinvariant implicit system in such a way that it has prescribed relative degree and zeros. The formula is inspired on different generalizations of Ackermann’s formula. A possible application is in the context of sliding-mode control of implicit systems where, as the first step, one can use the pr...

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...
