This paper proposes a disturbance observer-based discrete sliding-mode control scheme with the variable sampling rate control for the marine diesel engine speed control in the presence of system uncertainties and disturbances. Initially, a sliding-mode controller based on the fast power reaching law is employed, which has a good dynamic quality of the arrival stage and can suppress chattering. To satisfy the practical requirements in the digital controller and the crank angle-based fuel injection in engine speed control, the proposed method is discretized under the variable sampling rate condition. A disturbance observer based on the second-order sliding-mode control is designed to compensate the system uncertainties and disturbances, by doing such the requirement of the parameters of the sliding-mode controller to be reduced significantly. In addition, a cylinder-by-cylinder mean value engine model (MVEM) is built by restructuring the combustion torque model, based on which numerical simulations are carried out by comparing the proposed method with PID and the extended state observer (ESO)-based sliding mode controllers. The common operation situations of the marine diesel engines are taken into account, including starting process, acceleration and deceleration, load variation, and varied propulsion system parameters. The results demonstrate that the proposed disturbance observer-based sliding-mode controller has prominent control performance and strong robustness.

A novel full-order terminal sliding-mode controller (FOTSMC) based on the finite-time disturbance observer (FTDO) is proposed for the “JIAOLONG” manned submersible with lumped disturbances. First, a finite-time disturbance observer (FTDO) is developed to estimate the lumped disturbances including the external disturbances and model uncertainties. Second, a full-order terminal sliding-mode surface is designed for the manned submersible, whose sliding-mode motion behaves as full-order dynamics rather than reduced-order dynamics in conventional sliding-mode control systems. Then, a continuous sliding-mode control law is developed to avoid chattering phenomenon, as well as to drive the system outputs to the desired reference trajectory in finite time. Furthermore, the closed-loop system stability analysis is given by Lyapunov theory. Finally, the simulation results demonstrate the satisfactory tracking performance and excellent disturbance rejection capability of the proposed finite-time disturbance observer based full-order terminal sliding-mode control (FTDO-FOTSMC) method.

Divergent instability control of 2D pretwisted blade section of wind turbine driven by aerodynamic forces under disturbance is investigated. Realization of divergent instability control is based on two types of discrete sliding mode control algorithms. The structure is modeled as 2D pretwisted blade section integrated with structural damping, which is driven by aerodynamic model with perturbed disturbance. Discrete sliding mode control algorithm suitable for disturbance control is investigated to control divergent flap/lead-lag vibrations of blade section. To increase convergence performance and reduce the chattering phenomenon, discrete sliding mode control based on disturbance observer is applied. Convergence of disturbance observer is analyzed, and stability of closed-loop system is discussed. The simulation results show that not only the convergence accuracy can be improved by sliding mode control based on disturbance observer controller, but also the displacement chattering and the control input chattering can be effectively eliminated. Compared with conventional discrete sliding mode control, it has more advantages in the control of divergent instability. To facilitate the real-time realization and automation and at the same time to ensure accuracy, a design of quadratic feedback to build the performance control matrix in sliding mode control based on disturbance observer is developed in present study.

The vertical launching barrel-cover device is a symmetry mechanism, so we can simplify this symmetry mechanism into an electro-hydraulic servo problem. The vertical launching barrel-cover of the underwater missile has parameter uncertainty, load time-varying and strong nonlinear of motion and coupling during the submarine movement. Therefore, it is important to study the nonlinear adaptive antidisturbances control method of the vertical launching barrel-cover. For the vertical launching cover system of the underwater missile, an adaptive backstepping sliding mode control system based on disturbance observer is proposed. The backstepping sliding mode controller is used to solve the problem of nonlinearity and chattering in the system; the adaptive method is used to dynamically follow the changes of the system characteristics, adjust the controller parameters. At the same time, the disturbance observer is added to the system to reduce the sensitivity of the system to disturbance By completing the process of switching cover, we have experimented with the designed adaptive backstepping sliding mode controller to verify the effectiveness of the controller. The controller improves the stability of the whole switch cover system. The experimental results show that compared with traditional proportional integral (PI) controller and sliding mode controller, the controller solves the problem of over-limit when the cover is in place, and has excellent tracking performance in the process of the switch cover.

Introduction: In this paper, a robust sliding mode controller is developed to control an orthosis used for rehabilitation of lower limb. Materials and Methods: The orthosis is defined as a mechanical device intended to physically assist a human subject for the realization of his movements. It should be adapted to the human morphology, interacting in harmony with its movements, and providing the necessary efforts along the limbs to which it is attached. Results: The application of the sliding mode control to the Shank-orthosis system shows satisfactory dynamic response and tracking performances. Conclusion: In fact, position tracking and speed tracking errors are very small. The sliding mode controller effectively absorbs disturbance and parametric variations, hence the efficiency and robustness of our applied control.
