Surge is one of the two main dynamic instabilities that can occur in compressor systems (the other is the rotating stall) preventing their satisfactory operation and being potential cause of serious damages. In this paper we consider a Close Coupled Valve (CCV) as actuator, and we suggest the use of a second-order sliding-mode (2-SM) technique for the active control of the surge phenomenon. We ...

in this paper a control system has been designed to improve traffic conditions in car following maneuver. there are different methods to design a control system. in this paper design approach is based on the fuzzy sliding mode control (fsmc) system. the aim of designing fsmc system is to achieve safe and desire longitudinal distance and less lateral displacement. in order to control and obtain ...

This paper proposes a second-order terminal sliding mode control for a class of uncertain input-delay systems. The input-delay systems are firstly converted into the input-delay free systems and further converted into the regular forms. A linear sliding mode manifold is predesigned to represent the ideal dynamics of the system. Another terminal sliding mode manifold surface is presented to driv...

A double integrator is controlled by discontinuous-impulsive feedback with adaptation. The gain of the impulsive control is adapted to minimize the time convergence to zero of the double integrator dynamics when the impulsive control is applied. The real case is studied to take into account the limitation of the input amplitude, the sampling of the controller and the effect of the disturbances....

A solution to the problem of eliminating the chattering effect, which is always associated with practical implementations of variable structure control, is presented in this paper with reference to a class of uncertain multi-input nonlinear systems. The solution procedure relies on the application of an original control approach capable of enforcing a second-order sliding mode (i.e., a sliding ...

Open-sea stevedores of containers provide an alternative way to avoid port congestion. This process involves a mobile harbour equipped with a crane which loads/unloads containers from a large cargo ship. However, the presence of ocean waves and gusty winds can produce an excessive sway to the hoisting ropes of the crane system. This paper presents a second-order sliding mode controller for traj...

The paper proposes an approach to second order sliding mode control for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) nonlinear uncertain systems. With respect to standard sliding mode control, the second order sliding mode techniques for singleinput single-output (SISO) systems show the same properties of robustness and precision, feature a higher order accuracy and can be exploited to eliminate the chatter...

This paper presents a second order sliding mode control (SOSMC) for a single link flexible manipulator, which represents a class of under actuated systems. A second order super twisting algorithm (STA) is used to provide better positional accuracy and robustness against parametric variation and external disturbances with alleviation in chattering. A smooth control is synthesized using STA to ex...

In this paper, a new smooth second order sliding mode control is proposed. This algorithm is a modified form of Super Twisting algorithm. The Super Twisting guarantees the asymptotic stability, but the finite time stability of proposed method is proved with introducing a new particular Lyapunov function. The Proposed algorithm which is able to control nonlinear systems with matched structured u...
