Trajectory tracking is an importance practice in ship motion control field. It attracts more attention recently due to its difficulties. Trajectory tracking requires the ship to arrive pinpoint location at exact time. It is a underactuated system because the degrees of freedom of control inputs are fewer than the degrees of freedom that needed to be controlled. In this paper, a hierarchical sliding mode controller and a common sliding mode controller are proposed to deal with the trajectory tracking problem of underactuated surface vessels. Simulation results validate the tracking performance of the proposed controllers. The closed-loop stability is testified by the Lyapunov stability theorem.

This article presents the development, implementation, and comparison of two trajectory tracking nonlinear controllers for underactuated surface vessels. A control approach capable of stabilizing all the states of any planar vehicle is specifically adapted to surface vessels. The method relies on transformation of the six position and velocity state dynamics into a four-state error dynamics. The backstepping and sliding mode control laws are then derived for stabilization of the error dynamics and proven to stabilize all system states. Simulations are presented in the absence and presence of modeling uncertainties and unknown disturbances. An experimental setup is then described, followed by successful experimental implementation and comparison of the two controllers.

The large modeling uncertainties and the nonlinearities associated with air manifold and fuel injection in spark ignition (SI) engines has given rise to difficulties in the task of designing an adequate controller for air-to-fuel ratio (AFR) control. Although sliding mode control approaches has been suggested, the inescapable time-delay between control action and measurement update results in chattering. This paper proposes the implementation of a nonlinear observer based control scheme incorporating the hybrid extended Kalman filter (HEKF) and the dynamic sliding mode control (DSMC). The results established upon the proposed methodology are given which demonstrate superior performance in terms of reducing the chattering magnitude.
