Nonsingular Terminal Sliding Mode

Abstract Building structures are prone to damage due to natural disasters, and this challenges structural engineers to design safer and more robust building structures. This study is conducted to prevent these consequences by implementing a control strategy that can enhance a building's stability and reduce the risk of damage. Therefore, to realize the structural integrity of a building, a hybrid control device is equipped with control strategies to enhance robustness. The control strategy proposed in this study is adaptive nonsingular terminal sliding mode control (ANTSMC). ANTSMC is an integrated controller of radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) and nonsingular terminal sliding mode control (NTSMC), which has a fast dynamic response, finite-time convergence, and the ability to enhance the control performance against a considerable uncertainty. The proposed controller is designed based on the sliding surface and the control law. The building with a two-degree-of-freedom (DOF) system is designed in Matlab/Simulink and validated with the experimental work connected to the LMSTest.Lab software. The performance of this controller is compared with those of the terminal sliding mode control (TSMC) and NTSMC in terms of the displacement response, sliding surface, and the probability of damage. The result showed that the proposed controller, ANTSMC can suppress vibrations up to 46%, and its percentage probability of complete damage is 15% from the uncontrolled structure. Thus, these findings are imperative towards increasing the safety level in building structures and occupants, and reducing damage costs in the event of a disaster.

Global Sliding Surface

This paper proposes a novel nonsingular terminal sliding mode control combined with global sliding surface for a class of uncertain nonlinear second-order systems. The suggested control approach is developed based on the Lyapunov theory. The sliding mode reaching the sliding surface in finite time can be guaranteed. Furthermore, chattering phenomenon caused by the switching control action can be eliminated theoretically, and desirable control performance is realized. The simulation and tank test results for heave control of a remotely operated vehicle are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Permanent Magnet Linear Motor

For the position tracking control problem of permanent magnet linear motor, an improved fast continuous-time nonsingular terminal sliding mode control algorithm based on terminal sliding mode control method is proposed. Specifically, first, for the second-order model of position error dynamic system, a new continuous-time fast terminal sliding surface is introduced and an improved continuous-time fast terminal sliding mode control law is proposed. Then rigorous theoretical analysis is provided to demonstrate the finite-time stability of the closed-loop system by using the Lyapunov function. Finally, numerical simulations are given to verify the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed fast nonsingular terminal sliding mode control method.

The nonlinearities of piezoelectric actuators and external disturbances of the piezoelectric nanopositioning stage impose great, undesirable influences on the positioning accuracy of nanopositioning stage systems. This paper considers nonlinearities and external disturbances as a lumped disturbance and designs a composite control strategy for the piezoelectric nanopositioning stage to realize ultra-high precision motion control. The proposed strategy contains a composite disturbance observer and a continuous terminal sliding mode controller. The composite disturbance observer can estimate both periodic and aperiodic disturbances so that the composite control strategy can deal with the disturbances with high accuracy. Meanwhile, the continuous terminal sliding mode control is employed to eliminate the chattering phenomenon and speed up the convergence rate. The simulation and experiment results show that the composite control strategy achieves accurate estimation of different forms of disturbances and excellent tracking performance.
