An adaptive fuzzy second-order terminal sliding mode control scheme is developed to solve the problem of rigid spacecraft attitude maneuver in which the external disturbances and uncertain inertia parameters as well as actuator faults are explicitly taken into account. The proposed controller incorporates a second-order terminal sliding mode to obtain finite time convergent performance as well as chattering elimination, meanwhile the fuzzy logical system is implemented to estimate the system uncertainties of the rigid spacecraft. Lyapunov stability analysis shows that the designed control algorithm guarantees the practical finite time stability of the attitude maneuver errors with great robustness to system uncertainties and actuator faults. Numerical simulations are also presented that not only highlights closed-loop performance benefits from the proposed control algorithm, but also illustrates its effectiveness in the presence of disturbances and uncertainties when compared with classic finite time sliding mode control schemes for spacecraft attitude maneuver control.

This paper aims to solve the control problem of coupled spacecraft tracking maneuver in the case of actuator faults, inertia parametric uncertainties, and external disturbances. Firstly, the spacecraft attitude and position coupling kinematics and dynamics model are established on the Lie group SE(3), and the coupled relative motion tracking error model is derived by exponential coordinates. Then, considering the actuator faults, an adaptive fuzzy scheme is proposed to estimate the lumped disturbances in real time, and a novel modified fixed-time terminal sliding mode fault-tolerant control law is developed to deal with the actuator faults and compensate the lumped disturbances. Next, the Lyapunov method is used to prove the stability and convergence of the system. Finally, the proposed controller can achieve fast and high-precision fault-tolerant control goals, and its effectiveness and feasibility are verified by numerical simulation.

This paper investigates formation tracking control for multi-agent networks with fixed time convergence. The control task is that the follower agents are required to form a prescribed formation within a fixed time and the geometric center of the formation moves in sync with the leader. First, an error system is designed by using the information of adjacent agents and a new control protocol is designed based on the error system and terminal sliding mode control (TSMC). Then, via employing the Lyapunov stability theorem and the fixed time stability theorem, the control task is proved to be possible within a fixed time and the convergence time can be calculated by parameters. Finally, numerical results illustrate the feasibility of the proposed control protocol.

There exist complex disturbances in the attitude control system of flexible spacecrafts, such as space environmental disturbances, flexible vibrations, inertia uncertainties, payload motions, etc. To suppress the effects of these disturbances on the performance of attitude stabilization, a super-twisting disturbance observer (STDO)-based nonsingular terminal sliding mode controller (NTSMC) is proposed in this paper. First, STDO is designed for a second-order dynamical system constructed by applying the lumped disturbance and its integral as state variables, and applying the integral as virtual measurement. Since the virtual measurement is obtained by integrating the inverse attitude dynamics, STDO not only avoids the differential operation of angular velocity, but also fully utilizes the information of a nonlinear model. By combining STDO with NTSMC, a composite controller is designed to achieve high-accuracy spacecraft attitude stabilization. Since most of the disturbances are compensated for by a STDO-based feedforward compensator, only a small switching gain is required to deal with the residual disturbances and uncertainties. Thus, the chattering phenomenon of the controller can be alleviated to a great extent. Finally, numerical simulations for the comparison between STDO-based NTSMC and nonlinear disturbance observer-based NTSMC are carried out in the presence of complex disturbances to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

As the possibility of faults in active suspension actuators are higher and more severe compared to other components, this study presents a fault-tolerant control approach based on the second-order sliding mode control method. The aim of the controller is to improve riding comfort, guarantee handling stability, and provide adequate suspension stroke in the presence of disturbances and actuator faults. A nonlinear full-vehicle suspension system and hydraulic actuator with nonlinear characteristics are adopted for accurate control. Firstly, a nonlinear sliding manifold based on a nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode controller is introduced to suppress the sprung mass heave, pitch, and roll motions arising from road disturbances. Secondly, a second-order sliding mode-based super twisting controller is utilized to track the desired forces generated by the nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode controller with actuator faults and uncertainties. The controllers are robust against disturbances, uncertainties, and faults. Moreover, the stability of the super twisting controller is proved by the strong Lyapunov functions. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the controller. Four different conditions, random road profile, bump road excitation, single-wheel bump excitation, and partial faults are considered. The main contributions of this study are: (1) combination of the above algorithms to deal with actuator faults and improve active suspension performance; (2) the controller proposed in this study has a simple structure. Simulation results indicate that the nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode super twisting controller can guarantee the performance of the closed-loop system under both faulty and healthy conditions.
