The design of variable-structure control (VSC) systems for a class of multivariable, nonlinear,
time-varying systems is presented. Using the Utkin-Drazenovic method of equivalent control …

The author attempts to portray the ideas and general principles of the theory of materials
within the framework of phenomenological continuum mechanics. It is a well-written rigorous …

Reinforcement learning with safety constraints is promising for autonomous vehicles, of
which various failures may result in disastrous losses. In general, a safe policy is trained by …

Adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) and reinforcement learning are quite relevant to each
other when performing intelligent optimization. They are both regarded as promising …

This article investigates the problem of fuzzy adaptive consensus tracking control for
nonlinear multiagent systems with unknown nonlinear control gain functions. In the control …

Distributed controller design is generally a challenging task, especially for multi-agent
systems with complex dynamics, due to the interconnected effect of the agent dynamics, the …

This paper extends a recent result on sliding mode control for general n th order systems
with mismatched uncertainties. In this paper, a control is proposed to handle a larger class of …

The design of stabilizing controller for uncertain nonlinear systems with control constraints is
a challenging problem. The constrained-input coupled with the inability to identify accurately …

This paper aims to develop a safe learning scheme of the USV interception mission. A safe
Lyapunov boundary deep deterministic policy gradient (SLDDPG) algorithm is presented for …

A method is proposed for designing controllers with arbitrarily small tracking error for
uncertain, mismatched nonlinear systems in the strict feedback form. This method is another" …
