Electric direct-current (DC) drives based on DC motor are extremely important in the manufacturing process, so it must be crucial to increase their performance when they are working on load disturbances or the DC motor’s parameters change. Usually, several load torque suddenly appears when electric drives are operating in a speed closed-loop, so robust controllers are required to keep the speed high-performance. One of the most well-known robust strategies is the sliding mode controller (SMC), which works under discontinue operation. This controller can handle disturbances and variations in the plant’s parameters, so the controller has robust performance. Nevertheless, it has some disadvantages (chattering). Therefore, this paper proposed a fuzzy logic controller (FLC) that includes an artificial organic network for adjusting the command signal of the SMC. The proposed controller gives a smooth signal that decrements the chattering in the SMC. The stability condition that is based on Lyapunov of the DC motor is driven is evaluated; besides, the stability margins are calculated. The proposed controller is designed using co-simulation and a real testbed since co-simulation is an extremely useful tool in academia and industry allows to move from co-simulation to real implementation in short period of time. Moreover, there are several universities and industries that adopt co-simulation as the main step to design prototypes. Thus, engineering students and designers are able to achieve excellent results when they design rapid and functional prototypes. For instance, co-simulation based on Multisim leads to design directly printed circuit boards so engineering students or designers could swiftly get an experimental DC drive. The experimental results using this platform show excellent DC-drive performance when the load torque disturbances are suddenly applied to the system. As a result, the proposed controller based on fuzzy artificial organic and SMC allows for adjusting the command signal that improves the dynamic response in DC drives. The experimental response using the sliding-mode controller with fuzzy artificial organic networks is compared against an auto-tuning, Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID), which is a conventional controller. The PID controller is the most implemented controller in several industries, so this proposal can contribute to improving manufacturing applications, such as micro-computer numerical control (CNC) machines. Moreover, the proposed robust controller achieves a superior-speed response under the whole tested scenarios. Finally, the presented design methodology based on co-simulation could be used by universities and industry for validating and implementing advanced control systems in DC drives.

SUMMARYThis paper presents a novel robust hybrid fractional order proportional derivative sliding mode controller (HFOPDSMC) for 2-degree of freedom (2-DOF) robot manipulator based on extended grey wolf optimizer (EGWO). Sliding mode controller (SMC) is remarkably robust against the uncertainties and external disturbances and shows the valuable properties of accuracy. In this paper, a new fractional order sliding surface (FOSS) is defined. Integrating the fractional order proportional derivative controller (FOPDC) and a new sliding mode controller (FOSMC), a novel robust controller based on HFOPDSMC is proposed. The bounded model uncertainties are considered in the dynamics of the robot, and then the robustness of the controller is verified. The Lyapunov theory is utilized in order to show the stability of the proposed controller. In this paper, the EGWO is developed by adding the emphasis coefficients to the typical grey wolf optimizer (GWO). The GWO and EGWO, then, are applied to optimize the proposed control parameters which result in the optimized GWO-HFOPDSMC and EGWO-HFOPDSMC, respectively. The effectivenesses of the optimized controllers (GWO-HFOPDSMC and EGWO-HFOPDSMC) are completely verified by comparing the simulation results of the optimized controllers with the typical FOSMC and HFOPDSMC.

Today, use of articulated long vehicles is surging. The advantages of using large articulated vehicles are that fewer drivers are used and fuel consumption decreases significantly. The major problem of these vehicles is inappropriate lateral performance at high speed. The articulated long vehicle discussed in this article consists of tractor and two semi-trailer units that widely used to carry goods. The main purpose of this article is to design an adaptive sliding mode controller that is resistant to changing the load of trailers and measuring the noise of the sensors. Control variables are considered as yaw rate and lateral velocity of tractor and also first and second articulation angles. These four variables are regulated by steering the axles of the articulated vehicle. In this article after developing and verifying the dynamic model, a new adaptive sliding mode controller is designed on the basis of a nonlinear model. This new adaptive sliding mode controller steers the axles of the tractor and trailers through estimation of mass and moment of inertia of the trailers to maintain the stability of the vehicle. An articulated vehicle has been exposed to a lane change maneuver based on the trailer load in three different modes (low, medium and high load) and on a dry and wet road. Simulation results demonstrate the efficiency of this controller to maintain the stability of this articulated vehicle in a low-speed steep steer and high-speed lane change maneuvers. Finally, the robustness of this controller has been shown in the presence of measurement noise of the sensors. In fact, the main innovation of this article is in the designing of an adaptive sliding mode controller, which by changing the load of the trailers, in high-speed and low-speed maneuvers and in dry and wet roads, has the best performance compared to conventional sliding mode and linear controllers.

Abstract In this paper we present a new design method for the fight control of an autonomous quadrotor helicopter based on fuzzy sliding mode control using backstepping approach. Due to the underactuated property of the quadrotor helicopter, the controller can move three positions (x;y; z) of the helicopter and the yaw angle to their desired values and stabilize the pitch and roll angles. A first-order nonlinear sliding surface is obtained using the backstepping technique, on which the developed sliding mode controller is based. Mathematical development for the stability and convergence of the system is presented. The main purpose is to eliminate the chattering phenomenon. Thus we have used a fuzzy logic control to generate the hitting control signal. The performances of the nonlinear control method are evaluated by simulation and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy for the quadrotor helicopter in vertical flights.

This paper deals with the design of a novel modified supertwisting fast nonlinear sliding mode controller (MSTFNSMC) to stabilize a quadrotor system under time-varying disturbances. The suggested control strategy is based on a modified supertwisting controller with a fast nonlinear sliding surface to improve the tracking performance. The paper suggests a simple optimization tool built-in MATLAB/Simulink to tune the proposed controller parameters. Fast convergence of state variables is established by using a nonlinear sliding surface for rotational and translational subsystems. The modified supertwisting controller is developed to suppress the effect of chattering, reject disturbances, and ensure robustness against external disturbance effect. The stability of the proposed controller (MSTFNSMC) is proved using the Lyapunov theory. The performance of the proposed MSTFNSMC approach is compared with the supertwisting sliding mode controller (STSMC) by numerical simulations to verify its effectiveness.

In this paper, the nonlinear dynamics of permanent magnet (PM) DC motor drive with proportional (P) controller have been investigated. The drive system shows different dynamical behaviors; periodic, quasi-periodic, and chaotic behaviors, and those are characterized by using bifurcation diagram, phase portrait, and time series. The stability analysis of period-1 behavior is studied by using Filippov’s method, the analytic results show good agreement with simulation ones. Then, the stabilization of chaos to fixed point is carried out by using the sliding mode control (SMC). In addition, experimentally the nonlinear dynamics and the proposed stabilization method to PM DC motor drive system have been achieved by using a microcontroller. For the first time, it is noted that when the system is in chaotic dynamics, the vibration of the motor is increased approximately 400% compared with the system in periodic dynamical behavior.

Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) is used in automobiles to prevent slipping and locking of wheels after the brakes are applied. Its control is a rather complicated problem due to its strongly nonlinear and uncertain characteristics. The aim of this paper is to investigate the wheel slip control of the ground vehicle, comprising two new strategies. The first strategy is the Sliding Mode Controller (SMC) and the second one is the Fuzzy Sliding Mode Controller (FSMC), which is a combination of fuzzy logic and sliding mode, to ensure the stability of the closed-loop system and remove the chattering phenomenon introduced by classical sliding mode control. The obtained simulation results reveal the efficiency of the proposed technique for various initial road conditions.

This article presents the sliding control method combined with the selfadjusting neural network to compensate for noise to improve the control system's quality for the two-wheel self-balancing robot. Firstly, the dynamic equations of the two-wheel self-balancing robot built by Euler–Lagrange is the basis for offering control laws with a neural network of noise compensation. After disturbance-compensating, the sliding mode controller is applied to control quickly the two-wheel self-balancing robot reached the desired position. The stability of the proposed system is proved based on the Lyapunov theory. Finally, the simulation results will confirm the effectiveness and correctness of the control method suggested by the authors.
