Variable Structure Systems (VSSs) have been studied extensively for over 60 years and
widely used in practical applications. A particular interest in VSS is the so-called Sliding …

This paper deals with the trajectory tracking of a 2 Degrees of Freedom (DoF) helicopter
system. The control strategy is designed by the combination of the robust control strategy …

This paper presents the design and control of a novel gripper device with a passive type of
compliant constant-force mechanism. The function of constant-force output is achieved by …

AfterasurveypaperbyUtkininthelate1970s, slidingmodecontrolmeth-ologies emerged as an
e? ective tool to tackle uncertainty and disturbances which are inevitable in most of the …

In this brief a new switching type reaching law for sliding mode control of discrete time
systems is proposed. The proposed reaching law is a refined version of an earlier approach …

In this paper, a discrete-time sliding mode inventory management strategy based on a novel
non-switching type reaching law is introduced. The proposed reaching law eliminates …

In this paper, a novel reaching law for discrete‐time variable structure systems is proposed.
It ensures that the representative point (state) of the controlled plant approaches the …

In this paper, a robust optimal adaptive sliding mode control (OASMC) by using disturbance
observer (DOB) is successfully proposed and applied in the manipulator robot system. The …

A principal objective of control engineering is to design control systems which are robust
with respect to external disturbances and modelling uncertainty. This objective may be well …

This article presents a multivariable event-triggered generalized super-twisting sliding-mode
algorithm for a nonholonomic mobile-robot safe navigation in unknown indoor environment …
