This paper investigates the robust sliding mode control problem for a class of uncertain switched delay systems. A single sliding surface is constructed such that the reduced-order equivalent sliding motion restricted to the sliding surface is completely invariant to all admissible uncertainties. For the cases of known delay and unknown delay, the existence conditions of the sliding surface are...

This paper presents a time-varying sliding mode adaptive controller in order to handle the stick-slip oscillation of nonlinear rotary drilling system. The time-varying sliding mode controller with strong robust has two time-varying sliding surfaces, one of them induced time-varying integral sliding mode control can control the transient stage of the rotary drilling system and ensure the system ...

The standard method for spectrum analysis in digital signal processing (DSP) is the discrete Fourier transform (DFT), typically implemented using a fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm. However, there are applications that require spectrum analysis only over a subset of the N center frequencies of an N-point DFT. A popular, as well as efficient, technique for computing sparse DFT results is t...

The subloading-friction model is capable of describing static friction, the smooth transition from static to kinetic friction and the recovery to static friction after sliding stops or sliding velocity decreases. This causes a negative rate sensitivity (i.e. a decrease in friction resistance with increasing sliding velocity). A generalized subloading-friction model is formulated in this article...

OBJECTIVES Injury prevention is an important reason for the development of performance standards in football. Currently, there is no objective method available to classify sliding induced skin injuries, which includes the perceived sliding friendliness of football pitches. The purpose of this study was to develop a non-invasive method for quantification of the observed sliding induced skin dama...

This paper presents the dynamic modeling and fuzzy sliding mode control for rigid-flexible multibody systems. To investigate the dynamic stiffening of rigid-flexible systems, a firstorder approximate model of a flexible spacecraft system is formulated by using Hamilton’s principles and assumed mode method, taking into account the second-order term of the coupling deformation field. For highly f...

The friction and wear properties of polyamide 66 (PA66), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) sliding against hemselves under dry sliding and oil-lubricated conditions were studied by using a pin-on-disc tribometer. The effect of applied load and sliding peed on tribological behaviors of the polymer–polymer sliding combinations under dry sliding and oil-lubricated cond...
