In this paper, we extend the sliding mode idea to a class of unmatched uncertain variable structure systems. This method is achieved with introducing a new terminal sliding variable and the finite time stability of proposed method is proved using a new particular finite time condition in both reaching and sliding phases. In reaching phase new sliding mode controller is derived to guarantee the ...

Flagellar movement is caused by the coordinated activity of outer and inner dynein arms, which induces sliding between doublet microtubules. In trypsin-treated flagellar axonemes, microtubule sliding induced by ATP is faster in the presence than in the absence of the outer arms. To elucidate the mechanism by which the outer arms regulate microtubule sliding, we studied the effect of trypsin-dig...

In this paper, an optimal adaptive sliding mode controller is proposed for anti-synchronization of two identical hyperchaotic systems. We use hyperchaotic complex T-system for master and slave systems with unknown parameters in the slave system. To construct the optimal adaptive sliding mode controller, first a simple sliding surface is designed. Then, the optimal adaptive sliding mode controll...

This paper presents result of a research and development of nonlinear system synthesis using sliding mode method to perfect the current sliding mode technique. Actually, the problem is the adjustment certain input control of nonlinear plant so the variable state system reaches the equilibrium point. It was done by choosing a manifol or certain area that once state system enter this area or mani...

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...

this paper addresses the problem of the fractional sliding mode control (fsmc) for a mems optical switch. the proposed scheme utilizes a fractional sliding surface to describe dynamic behavior of the system in the sliding mode stage. after a comparison with the classical integer-order counterpart, it is seen that the control system with the proposed sliding surface displays better transient per...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors influencing functional outcomes in elderly patients with united intertrochanteric fractures treated with hip nails and to ascertain whether decreased femoral offset due to lag screw sliding has a negative effect on functional outcomes in these patients. This retrospective study included 65 patients older than 65 years with united intertro...

Quasi-one-dimensional microtubules (MTs) in cells enjoy high axial rigidity but large transverse flexibility due to the inter-protofilament (PF) sliding. This study aims to explore the structure-property relation for MTs and examine the relevance of the beam theories to their unique features. A molecular structural mechanics (MSM) model was used to identify the origin of the inter-PF sliding an...

In this paper, application of Sliding Mode Control (SMC) technique for an Active Magnetic Bearing (AMB) system with varying rotor speed is considered. The gyroscopic effect and mass imbalance inherited in the system is proportional to rotor speed in which this nonlinearity effect causes high system instability as the rotor speed increases. Transformation of the AMB dynamic model into regular sy...

An important consideration in control issues is control of nonlinear systems. Sliding control is among those nonlinear controllers that can control the system desirably in the presence of unstructured uncertainties of carelessness in specifying parameters of the system. In sliding control, also called Variable Structure Control, the main objectives of the controller &#10are achieved by introduc...
