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 /
Control strategies for robotic manipulators
This survey is aimed at presenting the major robust control strategies for rigid robot manipulators. The techniques discussed are feedback linearization/Computed torque control, Variable structure compensator, Passivity based approach and Disturbance observer based control. The first one is based on complete dynamic model of a robot. It results in simple linear control which offers guaranteed stability. Variable structure compensator uses a switching/relay action to overcome dynamic uncertainties and disturbances. Passivity based controller make use of passive structure of a robot. If passivity of a feedback system is proved, nonlinearities and uncertainties will not affect the stability. Disturbance observer based controllers estimate disturbances, which can be cancelled out to achieve a nominal model, for which a simple controller can then be designed. This paper, after explaining each control strategy in detail, finally compares these strategies for their pros and cons. Possible solutions to cope with the drawbacks have also been presented in tabular form. © 2012 IEEE
Review and Analysis on Main Technology of Exoskeletal Robot System for Upper Limbs Rehabilitation

Sliding mode robot control with friction and payload estimation
The paper deals with robust motion control of robotic
systems with unknown friction parameters and payload mass. The parameters of the robot arm were considered known with a given precision. To solve the control of the robot with unknown payload mass and friction parameters, sliding mode control algorithm was proposed combined with robust parameter adaptation techniques. Using Lyapunov method it was shown that the resulting controller achieves a guaranteed final tracking accuracy. Simulation results are
presented to illustrate the effectiveness and achievable
control performance of the proposed scheme
RBF Neural Network of Sliding Mode Control for Time-Varying 2-DOF Parallel Manipulator System
This paper presents a radial basis function (RBF) neural network control scheme for manipulators with actuator nonlinearities. The control scheme consists of a time-varying sliding mode control (TVSMC) and an RBF neural network compensator. Since the actuator nonlinearities are usually included in the manipulator driving motor, a compensator using RBF network is proposed to estimate the actuator nonlinearities and their upper boundaries. Subsequently, an RBF neural network controller that requires neither the evaluation of off-line dynamical model nor the time-consuming training process is given. In addition, Barbalat Lemma is introduced to help prove the stability of the closed control system. Considering the SMC controller and the RBF network compensator as the whole control scheme, the closed-loop system is proved to be uniformly ultimately bounded. The whole scheme provides a general procedure to control the manipulators with actuator nonlinearities. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the designed scheme and the theoretical discussion
Design of Adaptive Switching Controller for Robotic Manipulators with Disturbance
Two adaptive switching control strategies are proposed for the trajectory tracking problem of robotic manipulator in this paper. The first scheme is designed for the supremum of the bounded disturbance for robot manipulator being known; while the supremum is not known, the second scheme is proposed. Each proposed scheme consists of an adaptive switching law and a PD controller. Based on the Lyapunov stability theorem, it is shown that two new schemes can guarantee tracking performance of the robotic manipulator and be adapted to the alternating unknown loads. Simulations for two-link robotic manipulator are carried out and show that the two schemes can avoid the overlarge input torque, and the feasibility and validity of the proposed control schemes are proved
A Sliding Mode Multimodel Control for a Sensorless Photovoltaic System
In this work we will talk about a new control test using the sliding mode
control with a nonlinear sliding mode observer, which are very solicited in
tracking problems, for a sensorless photovoltaic panel. In this case, the panel
system will has as a set point the sun position at every second during the day
for a period of five years; then the tracker, using sliding mode multimodel
controller and a sliding mode observer, will track these positions to make the
sunrays orthogonal to the photovoltaic cell that produces more energy. After
sunset, the tracker goes back to the initial position (which of sunrise).
Experimental measurements show that this autonomic dual axis Sun Tracker
increases the power production by over 40%
