The double integral sliding mode synchronization method is studied for a class of super chaotic systems. Both the unknown parameters and uncertain nonlinear functions are considered for the driven and response chaotic systems. It is worthy pointing out that a kind of input nonlinearity is taken into consideration when the synchronization controller is designed. The uncertainties are very comple...

in this paper, the effect of bedrock inclination on seismic performance of slopes is investigated. the study was conducted based on dynamic analysis of different slopes, evaluation of the earthquake acceleration in sliding mass, and calculating the permanent displacement of the slope, using newmark sliding block. the investigation indicates that variation of the bedrock inclination may cause th...

In recent years, underactuated nonlinear dynamic systems trajectory tracking, such as space robots and manipulators with structural flexibility, has become a major field of interest due to the complexity and high computational load of these systems. Hierarchical sliding mode control has been investigated recently for these systems; however, the instability phenomena will possibly occur, especia...

This paper addresses the problems caused by an inappropriate selection of sliding surface parameters in fuzzy sliding mode controllers via an optimization approach. In particular, the proposed method employs the parallel distributed compensator scheme to design the state feedback based control law. The controller gains are determined in offline mode via a linear quadratic regular. The particle ...

This work proposes a neural-fuzzy sliding mode control scheme for a hydro-turbine speed governor system. Considering the assumption of elastic water hammer, a nonlinear mode of the hydro-turbine governor system is established. By linearizing this mode, a sliding mode controller is designed. The linearized mode is subject to uncertainties. The uncertainties are generated in the process of linear...

This article presents a fuzzy sliding-mode control scheme for a class of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy which are subject to norm-bounded uncertainties in each subsystem. The proposed stabilization method can be adopted to explore T-S uncertain fuzzy systems (TSUFS) with various local control inputs. Firstly, a new design is proposed to transform TSUFS into sliding-mode dynamic systems.In addi...

Conventional simulation and control methods for sliding mode control systems are limited by the available sampling bandwidth and allowable tracking error. Consequently, these methods suuer from harmful chattering. This paper presents an adaptive method for the discrete-time simulation and control of sliding mode control systems, based on an analysis on the relationship between tracking error an...

natural hazards such as earthquakes have threatened the life of human beings during the history.as a consequence, the vibration mitigation of structures has caught great importance. activecontrol of structures is one of the rapidly emerging areas in the concept of structural control. thispaper presents a control method to deal with this subject when the dynamics of the structure ishysteretic an...

this paper presents a new control scheme for a class of nonlinear systems. in the proposed method, an adaptive neural network observer with rise feedback controller are applied to realize sensorless control scheme. this observer is tuned online and no exact information of nonlinear term of plant is required. so, this characteristic can compensate mismodeling phenomena. also, a new controller ca...
