This paper presents simulation and experimental results of sliding mode control of nonlinear mechanical systems with time delay in the control loop. A flexible link oscillator made by Quanser is used as the target system. Geometric nonlinearity of the spring is included in the model, and the system is assumed to have parameter uncertainties. A sliding mode control with time delay is designed with the method of continuous time approximation. Both computer simulations and experiments show that the sliding mode control gives quite robust performance in the presence of model uncertainty.

The presented is a study on the problem of disturbance rejection, specifically the periodic disturbance, by applying discrete-time sliding mode control method. For perturbations such as modeling errors and external disturbances, their compensation is formulated using the designed sliding mode control. To eliminate the effect of these perturbations, the convergence rate between the disturbance and their compensation has been shaped by an additional parameter. Decoupling of the resultant perturbation estimation dynamics from the closed loop dynamics is achieved. Computation time delay is also presented to address the perturbation effects. The approach developed ensures the robustness of the sliding mode dynamics to parameter uncertainties and exogenous disturbances, in addition to the complete rejection of the periodic disturbance component. Satisfactory simulation results as well as experimental ones have been achieved based on a fast servo system of a modern hard disk drive to illustrate the validity of the controller for repeatable run-out (RRO) compensation.

In order to effectively suppress horizontal vibration of the ultra-high-speed elevator car system. Firstly, considering the nonlinearity of guide shoe, parameter uncertainties, and uncertain external disturbances of the elevator car system, a more practical active control model for horizontal vibration of the 4-DOF ultra-high-speed elevator car system is constructed and the rationality of the established model is verified by real elevator experiment. Secondly, a predictive sliding mode controller based on adaptive fuzzy (PSMC-AF) is proposed to reduce the horizontal vibration of the car system, the predictive sliding mode control law is achieved by optimizing the predictive sliding mode performance index. Simultaneously, in order to decrease the influence of uncertainty of the car system, a fuzzy logic system (FLS) is designed to approximate the compound uncertain disturbance term (CUDT) on-line. Furthermore, the continuous smooth hyperbolic tangent function (HTF) is introduced into the sliding mode switching term to compensate the fuzzy approximation error. The adaptive laws are designed to estimate the error gain and slope parameter, so as to increase the robustness of the system. Finally, numerical simulations are conducted on some representative guide rail excitations and the results are compared to the existing solution and passive system. The analysis has confirmed the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed control method.

This article proposes a novel adaptive super-twisting sliding mode control scheme with a time-delay estimation technique (ASTSMC-TDE) to control the yaw angle of a single ducted-fan unmanned aerial vehicle system. Such systems are highly nonlinear; hence, the proposed control scheme is a combination of several control schemes; super-twisting sliding mode, TDE technique to estimate the nonlinear factors of the system, and an adaptive sliding mode. The tracking error of the ASTSMC-TDE is guaranteed to be uniformly ultimately bounded using Lyapunov stability theory. Moreover, to enhance the versatility and the practical feasibility of the proposed control scheme, a comparison study between the proposed controller and a proportional-integral-derivative controller (PID) is conducted. The comparison is achieved through two different scenarios: a normal mode and an abnormal mode. Simulation and experimental tests are carried out to provide an in-depth investigation of the performance of the proposed ASTSMC-TDE control system.
