in this paper, a nonlinear model of the underactuated six degrees of freedom (6 dof) quadrotor helicopter was derived based on the newton-euler formalism. a new nonlinear robust control strategy was proposed to solve the stabilizing and path following problems in presence of external disturbances and parametric uncertainties. the proposed control structure consist of a sliding mode control base...

in this paper, an optimal adaptive fuzzy integral sliding mode control is presented to control the robot manipulator position tracking in the presence of uncertainties and permanent magnet dc motor. in the proposed control, sliding surface of the sliding mode control is defined according to the information of position tracking error, derivatives, and error integral. in order to estimate bounds ...

the goal of this research is the derivation of method for evaluation of efficiency improvement potential for district heating systems with focus on variable speed centrifugal pump. the effectiveness of the usage of the proportional pressure control is compared with the constant pressure control. this is why, energy calculation analyses have been realized for variable speed centrifugal pumps, an...

in this article, the sliding mode control of frequency load control of power systems is studied. the study areaconsists of a system of water and heat. first, a mathematical model of the proposed system disturbances ismade and then sliding control mode for frequency load control is provided. by the system simulation andsliding mode control, it can be shown that the damping of oscillations is wel...

an asymptotically stable direct adaptive fuzzy pi sliding modecontroller is proposed for a class of nonlinear uncertain systems. in contrast toother existing approaches of handling disturbances, the proposed approachdoes not require this bound to be known, only requiring that it exists.moreover, a pi control structure is used to attenuate chattering. the approachis applied to stabilize an open-...

this paper proposes a hybrid control scheme for the synchronization of two chaotic duffing oscillator system, subject to uncertainties and external disturbances. the novelty of this scheme is that the linear quadratic regulation (lqr) control, sliding mode (sm) control and gaussian radial basis function neural network (grbfnn) control are combined to chaos synchronization with respect to extern...

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...

the problem of relative motion control for spacecraft formation flying in eccentric orbits is considered in this paper. due to the presence of nonlinear dynamics and external disturbances, a robust fuzzy sliding mode controller is developed. the slopes of sliding surfaces of the conventional sliding mode controller are tuned according to error states using a fuzzy logic and reach the pre-define...

trichoderma is a genus of asexually reproducing fungi that is present in all types of soils. trichoderma species have been recognized as antagonists of soil-borne and foliage pathogens and as efficient decomposers of cellulosic waste materials. moreover, they have the ability to increase plant growth and induce plant resistance. along with mycoparasitism, antibiotics and competition, induced re...
