This paper presents a novel robust adaptive dual layer sliding mode control (ADLSMC) for the problem of high accuracy tracking trajectory of robot manipulator in the presence of uncertainties and external disturbances. This new control scheme has a dual layer structure. The first layer drives the robot manipulator system reaches the global nonlinear sliding surface in finite time, and the second layer tackles the values of the two control gains overestimation problem. Moreover, compared with the traditional super-twisting with time delay estimation algorithm, the proposed controller can realize not only set-point tracking but also dynamic tracking, which is very widely used in practice. The stability of the closed–loop system and the finite time convergence are analyzed using Lyapunov techniques. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by simulations and experimental studies.

To improve the tracking precision of robot manipulators’ end-effector with uncertain kinematics and dynamics in the task space, a new control method is proposed. The controller is based on time delay estimation and combines with the nonsingular terminal sliding mode (NTSM) and adaptive fuzzy logic control scheme. Kinematic parameters are not exactly required with the consideration of kinematic uncertainties in the controller. No dynamic models or numerous parameters of the robot manipulator system are required with the use of TDE. Thus, the controller is simple structure and suitable for practical applications. Furthermore, errors caused by time delay estimation are compensated by the adaptive fuzzy nonsingular terminal sliding mode scheme. The simulation is performed on a 2-DOF robot manipulator with three cases in the task space. The results show that the proposed controller provides faster convergence rate and higher tracking precision than TDE based NTSM and improved TDE based NTSM controller.

This paper investigates a finite-time attitude manoeuvre control problem for a flexible spacecraft subject to bounded external disturbances. A robust discontinuous finite-time controller with terminal sliding mode control is designed to solve this problem provided that the disturbances and the coupling effect of flexible modes are bounded with a known boundary. The controller is further enhanced by an adaptive scheme to deal with the more practical case that the boundary is unknown. The enhanced version is continuous and chattering-free. The results are rigorously proved using the Lyapunov stability theory. The effectiveness and robustness of the proposed controllers are demonstrated by numerical simulation.

Abstract A novel trajectory tracking strategy is developed for a double actuated swing in a hydraulic construction robot. Specifically, a nonlinear hydraulic dynamics model of a double actuated swing is established, and a robust adaptive control strategy is designed to enhance the trajectory tracking performance. When an object is grabbed and unloaded, the inertia of a swing considerably changes, and the performance of the estimation algorithm is generally inadequate. Thus, it is necessary to establish an algorithm to identify the initial value of the moment of inertia of the object. To this end, this paper proposes a novel initial value identification algorithm based on a two-DOF robot gravity force identification method combined with computer vision information. The performance of the identification algorithm is enhanced. Simulations and experiments are performed to verify the effect of the novel control scheme.

A robust and practical force control system is crucial to the sensitive piezo-driven micromanipulation applications. This paper presents a new model-free robust finite-time force tracking controller for piezoelectric actuators (PEAs). The proposed controller composes of three intuitive terms: (1) a time-delay estimation (TDE) term that eliminates the requirement of detailed information about the PEA system, realizing model-free control; (2) a fast integral terminal sliding mode-based desired error dynamics injection term that ensures fast convergence and high tracking precision; (3) a correcting term based on adaptive fuzzy logic system that compensates for TDE errors caused by discontinuous nonlinearities and improves the robustness of the system. Force differential signal used in the controller is estimated online by a force state estimator. Stability of the closed-loop system and finite-time convergence are analyzed in theory. Comparative experiments are carried out on a PEA system with two superposed PEAs. Results show that the proposed control strategy has faster convergence, higher tracking accuracy and stronger robustness compared with the traditional TDE-based force controllers.

In this paper, two finite-time active fault-tolerant controllers for a robot manipulator, which combine a synchronous terminal sliding mode control with an extended state observer, are proposed. First, an extended state observer is adopted to estimate the lumped uncertainties, disturbances, and faults. The estimation information is used to compensate the controller designed in the following step. We present an active fault-tolerant control with finite-time synchronous terminal sliding mode control, largely based on a novel finite-time synchronization error and coupling position error. We also present an active fault-tolerant control that does not use a coupling position error. By using synchronization control, the position error at each joint can simultaneously approach toward zero and toward equality, which may reduce the picking phenomenon associated with the active fault-tolerant controller strategy. Finally, simulation and experimental results for a three degree-of-freedom robot manipulator verify the effectiveness of the two proposed active fault-tolerant controllers.
