This paper investigates a novel nonlinear positioning control methodology for piezoelectric stack actuators. Piezoelectric devices become very common recently for precise positioning, primarily due to the fact that they are solid state and can be accurately controlled by a voltage or current input. However, hysteresis decreases positioning accuracy and could lead to instability. The ultimate goal is to reduce it so that the piezoelectric device has a nearly linear relationship between the input field and output strain. The main purpose of this research is the reduction of the hysteresis utilizing a hysteresis model and a nonlinear model-based controller. A novel control method called model predictive sliding mode control (MPSMC) will be utilized on an actuator using a nonlinear energy-based hysteresis model. The idea of MPSMC is to implement model predictive control techniques to improve sliding mode control by forcing the system to reach the sliding surface in an optimal manner. Simulations and experiments were conducted to verify the technique.

A piston piezoelectric (PZT) pump has many advantages for the use of light actuators. How to deal with the contradiction between the intermittent oil supplying and position control precision is essential when designing the controller. In order to accurately control the output of the actuator, a backstepping sliding-mode control method based on the Lyapunov function is introduced, and the controller is designed on the basis of establishing the mathematical model of the system. The simulation results show that, compared with fuzzy PID and ordinary sliding-mode control, backstepping sliding-mode control has a stronger anti-jamming ability and tracking performance, and improves the control accuracy and stability of the piezoelectric pump-controlled actuator system.

Aiming at high speed and accuracy position control, this paper introduces design of an optimal internal mode control and sliding mode control for rocket launcher servo systems which have large varied moment of inertia, strong impact moment and load moment. Internal mode control designed by LQR theory can satisfy system requirement of the position loop in PMSM system. Sliding mode control can restrain effects that caused by model parameter perturbation and external disturbance and realize high performance position control. Simulation results show that the control method is simple and has better performances compared with PID controller.

In this paper, we propose a robust nonlinear position and attitude control method for quadrotor using higher order sliding mode control concept. The control of quadrotor is realized in an inner- and outer-loop structure. Both inner- (attitude control) and outer (position control)-loop controllers are synthesized using third-order sliding mode control. The attitude control is designed in a quaternion framework to avoid gimbal lock and for better computational efficiency. A low-pass filter is used to reduce the effect of chattering in higher order sliding mode. A disturbance observer is designed for disturbance estimation. The robustness of proposed control method is ensured by providing the disturbance compensation term in the control law. Lyapunov stability analysis is provided for both inner- and outer-loop controls. Numerical results show that the proposed method provides effective control solution under continuous disturbance/uncertainties due to unmodeled dynamics, parameter variations, and external disturbance with high position accuracy.

Background: A novel type of control strategy is presented for control of chaotic systems particularly a chaotic robot in joint and workspace which is the result of applying fractional calculus to dynamic sliding mode control. Objectives: To guarantee the sliding mode condition, control law is introduced based on the Lyapunov stability theory. Methods: A control scheme is proposed for reducing the chattering problem in finite time tracking and robust in presence of system matched disturbances. Conclusion: Also, all of chaotic robot's qualitative and quantitative characteristics have been investigated. Numerical simulations indicate viability of our control method. Results: Qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the chaotic robot are all proven to be viable thru simulations.

Based on the sliding mode control methodology, this paper presents a robust control strategy for underactuated systems with mismatched uncertainties. The system consists of a nominal system and the mismatched uncertainties. Since the nominal system can be considered to be made up of several subsystems, a hierarchical structure for the sliding surfaces is designed. This is achieved by taking the sliding surface of one of the subsystems as the first-layer sliding surface and using this sliding surface and the sliding surface of another subsystem to construct the second-layer sliding surface. This process continues till the sliding surfaces of all the subsystems are included. A lumped sliding mode compensator is designed at the last-layer sliding surface. The asymptotic stability of all of the layer sliding surfaces and the sliding surface of each subsystem is proven. Simulation results show the validity of this robust control method through stabilization control of a system consisting of two inverted pendulums and mismatched uncertainties.
