Optimal sliding mode controllers for attitude tracking of spacecraft
This paper studies two optimal sliding mode control laws using integral sliding mode control (ISM) for some spacecraft attitude tracking problems. Integral sliding mode control combining the first order sliding mode and optimal control is applied to quaternion-based spacecraft attitude tracking manoeuvres with external disturbances and an uncertainty inertia matrix. For the optimal control part the state dependent Riccati equation (SDRE) and Control Lyapunov function (CLF) approaches are used to solve the infinite-time nonlinear optimal problem. The second method of Lyapunov is used to show that tracking is achieved globally. An example of multiaxial attitude tracking manoeuvres is presented and simulation results are included to verify the usefulness of these controllers
Terminal sliding mode control strategy design for second-order nonlinear system
This study mainly focuses on the terminal sliding mode control (TSMC) strategy design, including an adaptive terminal sliding mode control (ATSMC) and an exact-estimator-based terminal sliding mode control (ETSMC) for second-order nonlinear dynamical systems. In the ATSMC system, an adaptive bound estimation for the lump uncertainty is proposed to ensure the system stability. On the other hand, an exact estimator is designed for exact estimating system uncertainties to solve the trouble of chattering phenomena caused by a sign function in ATSMC law in despite of the utilization of a fixed value or an adaptive tuning algorithm for the lumped uncertainty bound. The effectiveness of the proposed control schemes can be verified in numerical simulations.<br /
MIMO First and Second Order Discrete Sliding Mode Controls of Uncertain Linear Systems under Implementation Imprecisions
The performance of a conventional model-based controller significantly
depends on the accuracy of the modeled dynamics. The model of a plant's
dynamics is subjected to errors in estimating the numerical values of the
physical parameters, and variations over operating environment conditions and
time. These errors and variations in the parameters of a model are the major
sources of uncertainty within the controller structure. Digital implementation
of controller software on an actual electronic control unit (ECU) introduces
another layer of uncertainty at the controller inputs/outputs. The
implementation uncertainties are mostly due to data sampling and quantization
via the analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) unit. The failure to address the
model and ADC uncertainties during the early stages of a controller design
cycle results in a costly and time consuming verification and validation (V&V)
process. In this paper, new formulations of the first and second order discrete
sliding mode controllers (DSMC) are presented for a general class of uncertain
linear systems. The knowledge of the ADC imprecisions is incorporated into the
proposed DSMCs via an online ADC uncertainty prediction mechanism to improve
the controller robustness characteristics. Moreover, the DSMCs are equipped
with adaptation laws to remove two different types of modeling uncertainties
(multiplicative and additive) from the parameters of the linear system model.
The proposed adaptive DSMCs are evaluated on a DC motor speed control problem
in real-time using a processor-in-the-loop (PIL) setup with an actual ECU. The
results show that the proposed SISO and MIMO second order DSMCs improve the
conventional SISO first order DSMC tracking performance by 69% and 84%,
respectively. Moreover, the proposed adaptation mechanism is able to remove the
uncertainties in the model by up to 90%.Comment: 10 pages, 11 figures, ASME 2017 Dynamic Systems and Control

Design an intelligent controller for full vehicle nonlinear active suspension systems
The main objective of designed the controller for a vehicle suspension system is to reduce the discomfort sensed by passengers which arises from road roughness and to increase the ride handling associated with the pitching and rolling movements. This necessitates a very fast and accurate controller to meet as much control objectives, as possible. Therefore, this paper deals with an artificial intelligence Neuro-Fuzzy (NF) technique to design a robust controller to meet the control objectives. The advantage of this controller is that it can handle the nonlinearities faster than other conventional controllers. The approach of the proposed controller is to minimize the vibrations on each corner of vehicle by supplying control forces to suspension system when travelling on rough road. The other purpose for using the NF controller for vehicle model is to reduce the body inclinations that are made during intensive manoeuvres including braking and cornering. A full vehicle nonlinear active suspension system is introduced and tested. The robustness of the proposed controller is being assessed by comparing with an optimal Fractional Order (FOPID) controller. The results show that the intelligent NF controller has improved the dynamic response measured by decreasing the cost function

A new control strategy is proposed, which integrates both the command input shaping and the sliding mode output feedback control (SMOFC) techniques. Specifically, the input shaper is designed for the reference model and implemented outside of the feedback loop in order to achieve the exact elimination of the residual vibration by modifying the existing command. The feedback controller, on the other hand, is designed based on the SMOFC such that the closed-loop system behaves like the reference model with input shaper, where the residual vibrations are eliminated in the presence of parametric uncertainties and external disturbances. An attractive feature of this SMOFC algorithm is that the parametric uncertainties or external disturbances of the system do not need to satisfy the so-called matching conditions or invariance conditions provided that certain bounds are known. In addition, a smoothed hyperbolic tangent function is introduced to eliminate the chattering phenomenon. Compared with the conventional methods, the proposed scheme guarantees not only the stability of the closed-loop system, but also the good performance as well as the robustness. Simulation results for the spacecraft model show that the precise attitudes control and vibration suppression are successfully achieved
