Sliding mode controller is applied to an ABS system in this paper. A mathematical model is used for controller design and evaluation. Finally, the proposed control action is compared with that of a bang-bang controller. Simulation results reveal the effectiveness of the proposed sliding mode controller. Key-Words: sliding mode control, ABS, slip, bang –bang control.

The problem of optimal feed-rate planning along a curved tool path for 3-axis CNC machines with a jerk limit for each axis is addressed. We prove that the optimal feed-rate planning must use “Bang-Bang” control, that is, at least one of the axes reaches its jerk bound throughout the motion. As a consequence, the optimal parametric velocity can be expressed as a piecewise analytic function of th...

A bang-bang controller is proposed which is able to ensure reference signal tracking with prespecified time-varying error bounds (the funnel) for nonlinear systems with relative degree one or two. For the design of the controller only the knowledge of the relative degree is needed. The controller is guaranteed to work when certain feasibility assumptions are fulfilled, which are explicitly give...

The new approach applies standard regulator theory using appropriate transformations and thereby enables the problem to be solved more completely than has hitherto been possible. For example we consider the cases which arise when Q is singular, Particular attention is given to the limiting case as t, becomes infinite. For this case, conditions are presented for the asymptotic stability of the s...

In this paper, we propose a new fuzzy bang–bang relay controller (FBBRC). The bang–bang control systems use switching relays or hard limiter saturation functions with fixed parameters, and their input does not have the flexibility to control the non-linear system over its entire range of operation. The conventional fuzzy bang–bang controllers have an analog output and an external hard limiting ...

A principal technical result of this paper is that the onedimensional heat equation with boundary control is exactly null-controllable with control restricted to an arbitrary set E ⊂ [0, T ] of positive measure. A general abstract argument is presented to show that this implies the ‘bangbang’ property for time-optimal controls — i.e., such a control can take only extreme values of (the hull of)...

In this paper, an intelligent-gradient based algorithm is proposed to solve time optimal bang-bang control problem. The proposed algorithm is a combination of an intelligent algorithm called improved particle swarm optimization algorithm (IPSO) in the first stage of optimization process together with a gradient-based algorithm called successive quadratic programming method (SQP) in the second s...

background and objective: obstructive sleep apnea (osa) is considered a common sleep disorder that increases the risk of traffic accidents among drivers. this study aimed to assess the association between mallampati score and stop-bang (snoring, tiredness, observed apnea, blood pressure, body mass index, age, neck circumference, gender) score in commercial drivers. materials and methods: 1743 m...
