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...

This paper studies theuncertain nonlinear dynamics of a MEMS optical switch addressing electrical, mechanical and optical subsystems. Recently, MEMS optical switch has had significant merits in reliability, control voltage requirements and power consumption. However, an inherent weakness in designing control for such systems is unavailability of switch position information at all times due to t...

In this paper, the general problem of impedance control for a robotic manipulator with a moving flexible base is addressed. Impedance control imposes a relation between force and displacement at the contact point with the environment. The concept of impedance control of flexible base mobile manipulator is rather new and is being considered for first time using singular perturbation and new slid...

This paper mainly addresses the balance control of a ball and beam system, where a pair of decoupled fuzzy sliding-mode controllers (DFSMCs) are proposed. The DFSMC has the advantage of reducing the design complexity, in which the coupling dynamics of the state-error dynamics are considered as disturbance terms. Stability analysis of the ball and beam system with DFSMCs is also discussed in det...

This paper investigates the dynamics and control aspects of the linear motion of a pendulum-driven spherical rolling robot. The dynamic model is deduced for the linear motion of a spherical robot by using the Euler-Lagrange formulation. By appropriate definitions the equations of motion for the robotic system are transformed into the state space form. A novel decoupled sliding mode control appr...

In this paper, a quaternion-based finite-time sliding mode attitude controller is designed for a spacecraft performing high-thrust orbital maneuvers, with cold gas thrusters as its actuators. The proposed controller results are compared with those of a quaternion feedback controller developed for the linearized spacecraft dynamics, in terms of settling time, steady-state error, number of thrust...

this paper deals with a globally convergent adaptive and sliding mode control of a cart-pole inverted pendulum for trajectory tracking in the presence of a bounded measurement noise and parameter uncertainty. two kinds of controllers have been used for evaluation of tracking error in presence of a bounded noise; as a result, we want to compare that at what time we can see the convergence of tra...

in this paper, a new robust controller based on geometric homogeneity and adaptive integral sliding mode is proposed for a class of second order systems. the upper bound of the system disturbances is not required. fully unknown parameters have been considered in the described model and its finite–time convergence to zero equilibrium point is proved. moreover, the controller is developed in the ...
