Abstract The performance of attitude stabilization control algorithms for rigid spacecraft can be limited by disturbances. In this paper, the global finite-time attitude stabilization problem with disturbances is investigated and handled by constructing a second-order sliding mode controller. Firstly, a virtual controller based on set stabilization idea is constructed to globally finite-time stabilize the system. Then, a relay polynomial second-order sliding mode controller is constructed to guarantee that the tracking error towards the virtual controller will converge to zero in finite-time. Finite-time Lyapunov theory is applied to support the proof and stability analysis. The global finite-time stability holds even with bounded disturbances. The effectiveness and feasibility of the controller are illustrated by the numerical simulations.

In this paper, a novel discontinuous second-order sliding mode control approach has been developed to handle sliding mode dynamics with a nonvanishing mismatched disturbance by using Lyapunov theory and a finite-time disturbance observer. Firstly, the finite-time disturbance observer is designed to estimate the nonvanishing mismatched disturbance. Secondly, a virtual controller has been constructed based on the estimated value such that the sliding variable can be stabilized to zero in a finite time. Then, the real discontinuous controller is designed to guarantee that the virtual controller can be well tracked in a finite time. Lyapunov analysis also verifies the finite-time stability of the closed-loop sliding mode control system. The developed discontinuous second-order sliding mode control method possesses two appealing features including strong robustness with respect to the matched and mismatched nonvanishing disturbances, and relaxation on the constant upper bound of uncertainties widely used in a conventional second-order sliding mode. Finally, an academic example is illustrated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper presents a fuzzy second-order sliding mode controller for a two-cell DC-DC converter. For this aim, a second-order sliding mode controller and a type-2 fuzzy system are combined to achieve an adequate control. For this reason, backgrounds on the type-2 fuzzy sets and on the second-order sliding mode control applied to discrete systems have been presented briefly. A proposed control algorithm is then presented combining these two robust approaches. The asymptotic stability of the overall controlled system has been ensured using the Lyapunov theory. The efficiency and the robustness of the proposed controller have been tested by simulations.

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.
