SUMMARYIn medical interventional procedures such as brachytherapy, biopsy and radio-frequency ablation, precise tracking through the preplanned desired trajectory is very essential. This important requirement is critical due to two major reasons: anatomical obstacle avoidance and accurate targeting for avoiding undesired radioactive dose exposure or damage to neighboring tissue and critical organs. Therefore, a precise control of the needling device in the unstructured environment in the presence of external disturbance is required to achieve accurate target reaching in clinical applications. In this paper, a shape memory alloy actuated active flexible needle controlled by an adaptive sliding mode controller is presented. The trajectory tracking performance of the needle is tested while having its actual movement in an artificial tissue phantom by giving various input reference trajectories such as multi-step and sinusoidal. Performance of the adaptive sliding mode controller is compared with that of the proportional, integral and derivative controller and is proved to be the effective method in the presence of the external disturbances.

In this paper, a radial basis neural network adaptive sliding mode controller (RBF−NN ASMC) for nonlinear electromechanical actuator systems is proposed. The radial basis function neural network (RBF−NN) control algorithm is used to compensate for the friction disturbance torque in the electromechanical actuator system. An adaptive law was used to adjust the weights of the neural network to achieve real−time compensation of friction. The sliding mode controller is designed to suppress the model uncertainty and external disturbance effects of the electromechanical actuator system. The stability of the RBF−NN ASMC is analyzed by Lyapunov’s stability theory, and the effectiveness of this method is verified by simulation. The results show that the control strategy not only has a better compensation effect on friction but also has better anti−interference ability, which makes the electromechanical actuator system have better steady−state and dynamic performance.

The Sliding Mode Control (SMC) has been among powerful control techniques increasingly. Much attention is paid to both theoretical and practical aspects of disciplines due to their distinctive characteristics such as insensitivity to bounded matched uncertainties, reduction of the order of sliding equations of motion, decoupling mechanical systems design. In the current study, two-link robot performance in the Classical SMC is enhanced via Adaptive Sliding Mode Controller (ASMC) despite uncertainty, external disturbance, and coulomb friction. The key idea is abstracted as follows: switching gains are depressed to the low allowable values, resulting in decreased chattering motion and control's efforts of the two-link robot system. Un-known uncertainty bounded and reducing switching gains can be considered major advantages of ASMC leading to outperform ASMC upon CSMC. Simulink MATLAB 2019a was used to obtain the simulation outcomes. The outcomes have shown that both methodologies had good tracking performance to the desired position and made the system asymptotically stable through the steady-state errors investigate approaching zero. ASMC is better than CSMC illustrated by minimizing gains values, control efforts, and chattering for each link.

The dynamic of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is nonlinear, strongly coupled, multi-input multi-output (MIMO), and subject to uncertainties and external disturbances.  In this paper, an adaptive sliding mode controller (ASMC) is integrated to design the attitude control system for an inner loop fixed wing UAV. In the proposed scheme, sliding mode control law parameters due to uncertainty are assumed to be unknown and are estimated via adaptation laws. The synthesis of the adaptation laws is based on the positivity and Lyapunov design principle. Navigation outer loop parameters are regulated via PID controllers. Simulation results indicate that the proposed controller design can stabilize the nonlinear system, and it is robust to parametric model uncertainties and external disturbance.

Purpose This paper aims to present the impact analysis of payload rendezvous with tethered satellite system and the design of an adaptive sliding mode controller which can deal with mass parameter uncertainty of targeted payload, so that the proposed cislunar transportation scheme with spinning tether system could be extended to a wider and more practical range. Design/methodology/approach In this work, dynamical model is first derived based on Langrangian equations to describe the motion of a spinning tether system in an arbitrary Keplerian orbit, which takes the mass of spacecraft, tether and payload into account. Orbital design and optimal open-loop control for the payload tossed by the spinning tether system are then presented. The real payload rendezvous impact around docking point is also analyzed. Based on reference acceleration trajectory given by optimal theories, a sliding mode controller with saturation functions is designed in the close-loop control of payload tossing stage under initial disturbance caused by actual rendezvous error. To alleviate the influence of inaccurate/unknown payload mass parameters, the adaptive law is designed and integrated into sliding mode controller. Finally, the performance of the proposed controller is evaluated using simulations. Simulation results validate that proposed controller is found effective in driving the spinning tether system to carry payload into desired cislunar transfer orbit and in dealing with payload mass parameter uncertainty in a relatively large range. Findings The results show that unideal rendezvous manoeuvres have significant impact on in-plane motion of spinning tether system, and the proposed adaptive sliding mode controller with saturation functions not only guarantees the stability but also provides good performance and robustness against the parameter and unstructured uncertainties. Originality/value This work addresses the analysis of actual impact on spinning tether system motion when payload is docking with system within tolerated docking window, rather than at the particular ideal docking point, and the robust tracking control of deep-space payload tossing missions with the spinning tether system using the adaptive sliding mode controller dealing with parameter uncertainties. This combination has not been proposed before for tracking control of multivariable spinning tether systems.

The Stability

Today, use of articulated long vehicles is surging. The advantages of using large articulated vehicles are that fewer drivers are used and fuel consumption decreases significantly. The major problem of these vehicles is inappropriate lateral performance at high speed. The articulated long vehicle discussed in this article consists of tractor and two semi-trailer units that widely used to carry goods. The main purpose of this article is to design an adaptive sliding mode controller that is resistant to changing the load of trailers and measuring the noise of the sensors. Control variables are considered as yaw rate and lateral velocity of tractor and also first and second articulation angles. These four variables are regulated by steering the axles of the articulated vehicle. In this article after developing and verifying the dynamic model, a new adaptive sliding mode controller is designed on the basis of a nonlinear model. This new adaptive sliding mode controller steers the axles of the tractor and trailers through estimation of mass and moment of inertia of the trailers to maintain the stability of the vehicle. An articulated vehicle has been exposed to a lane change maneuver based on the trailer load in three different modes (low, medium and high load) and on a dry and wet road. Simulation results demonstrate the efficiency of this controller to maintain the stability of this articulated vehicle in a low-speed steep steer and high-speed lane change maneuvers. Finally, the robustness of this controller has been shown in the presence of measurement noise of the sensors. In fact, the main innovation of this article is in the designing of an adaptive sliding mode controller, which by changing the load of the trailers, in high-speed and low-speed maneuvers and in dry and wet roads, has the best performance compared to conventional sliding mode and linear controllers.
