This scheme consists of three consecutive steps. First, although the network-induced delay in those systems can be effectively handled by using Pade approximation(PA), the unmatched disturbance cames out as another difficulty in the control design. Second, to actively estimate this unmatched disturbance, a generalized proportional integral observer(GPIO) technique is utilized based on only one measured state. Third, by constructing a new sliding manifold with the aid of the estimated unmatched disturbance and states, a GPIO-based CSMC is synthesized, which is employed to cope with not only matched and unmatched disturbances, but also networkinduced delays. The stability of the entire closed-loop system under the proposed GPIO-based CSMC is detailedly analyzed.The promising tracking efficiency and feasibility of the proposed control methodology are verified through simulations and experiments on Quanser's servo module for motion control under various test conditions.展开更多

By applying the Lyapunov stability theorem, an adaptive sliding mode controller （ADSMC） is developed.Based on the sliding mode control technique, the controller can drive the system into a pre-specified sliding hyperplane to obtain the desired dynamic performance. Once the system dynamics reaches the sliding plane, the control system is insensitive to uncertainty. The adaptive technique can overcome the unknown upper bound of uncertainty so that the reaching condition can be satisfied. Furthermore, the controller does not include any delayed state,so such an ADSMC is memoryless. Finally, a numerical example is given to verify the validity of the developed memoryless ADSMC and the globally asymptotic stability is guaranteed for the control scheme.展开更多

This paper presents a combined non-singular fast terminal sliding mode control method, aimed at resolving the frame control problem of roll-pitch seeker tracking high maneu-vering target. The sliding mode surface is structured around the principle of segmentation, which enables the control system’s rapid attainment of the zero point and ensure global fast conver-gence. The system’s state is more swiftly converged to the slid-ing mode surface through an improved adaptive fast dual power reaching law. Utilizing an extended state observer, the overall disturbance is both identified and compensated. The validation of the system’s stability and its convergence within a finite-time is grounded in Lyapunov’s stability criteria. The performance of the introduced control method is confirmed through roll-pitch seeker tracking control simulation. Data analysis reveals that newly proposed control technique significantly outperforms existing sliding mode control methods by rapidly converging the frame to the target angle, reduce the tracking error of the detec-tor for the target, and bolster tracking precision of the roll-pitch seeker huring disturbed conditions.展开更多

Firstly, a novel finite-time attitude controller is pointed out with the introduction of a nonsingular finite-time sliding mode manifold. The attitude tracking errors are mathematically proved to converge to zero within finite time which can be estimated.

Second, to actively estimate this unmatched disturbance, a generalized proportional integral observer(GPIO) technique is utilized based on only one measured state. Third, by constructing a new sliding manifold with the aid of the estimated unmatched disturbance and states, a GPIO-based CSMC is synthesized, which is employed to cope with not only matched and unmatched disturbances, but also networkinduced delays. The stability of the entire closed-loop system under the proposed GPIO-based CSMC is detailedly analyzed.The promising tracking efficiency and feasibility of the proposed control methodology are verified through simulations and experiments on Quanser's servo module for motion control under various test conditions.

文摘This paper presents a robust finite-time visual servo control strategy for the tracking problem of omni-directional mobile manipulators(OMMs)subject to mismatched disturbances.First,the nonlinear kinematic model of visual servoing for OMMs with mismatched disturbances is explicitly presented to solve the whole-body inverse kinematic problem.Second,a sliding mode observer augmented with an integral terminal sliding mode controller is proposed to handle these uncertainties and ensure that the system converges to a small region around the equilibrium point.The boundary layer technique is employed to mitigate the chattering phenomenon.Furthermore,a strict finite-time Lyapunov stability analysis is conducted.An experimental comparison between the proposed algorithm and a traditional position-based visual servo controller is carried out,and the results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed control algorithm.

文摘To achieve the manufacturing of Thin-Wall and High-Rib Components(TWHRC)with high precision,a novel heavy load Multi-DOF Envelope Forming Press(MEFP)with Parallel Kinematic Mechanism(PKM),driven by six Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors(PMSMs),is developed.However,on account of the heavy forming load,the PMSM parameters are in great variation.Meanwhile,the PMSM is always in a transient state caused by fast time-varying forming load,resulting in low identification precision of varied PMSM parameters and control precision of PMSM under traditional parameter identification methods.To solve this problem,a novel Sliding Mode Control Method with Enhanced PMSM Parameter Identification(SMCMEPPI)for heavy load MEFP is proposed.Firstly,the kinematic model of MEFP is established.Secondly,the variation law of PMSM parameters under heavy load is revealed.Thirdly,an enhanced PMSM parameter identification method is proposed,in which the q axis current of PMSM is used to represent the changing rate of forming load and the adjustment factor is first proposed to remove improper input of PMSM parameter identification online.Fourthly,the Electromechanical Coupling Dynamic Model(ECDM)of MEFP,which includes identified PMSM parameters,is developed.Finally,based on the developed ECDM,a novel SMCMEPPI is proposed to realize the high-precision control of heavy load MEFP.The experimental results indicate that the proposed SMCMEPPI can significantly improve the control precision of heavy load MEFP.

文摘This study introduces an enhanced adaptive fractional-order nonsingular terminal sliding mode controller(AFONTSMC)tailored for stabilizing a fully submerged hydrofoil craft(FSHC)under external disturbances,model uncertainties,and actuator saturation.A novel nonlinear disturbance observer modified by fractional-order calculus is proposed for flexible and less conservative estimation of lumped disturbances.An enhanced adaptive fractional-order nonsingular sliding mode scheme augmented by disturbance estimation is also introduced to improve disturbance rejection.This controller design only necessitates surpassing the estimation error rather than adhering strictly to the disturbance upper bound.Additionally,an adaptive fast-reaching law with a hyperbolic tangent function is incorporated to enhance the responsiveness and convergence rates of the controller,thereby reducing chattering.Furthermore,an auxiliary actuator compensator is developed to address saturation effects.The resultant closed system of the FSHC with the designed controller is globally asymptotically stable.

文摘The increasing accumulation of space debris threatens the integrity and functionality of satellites and complicates orbital operations.This paper constructs an advanced rigid-flexible coupling dynamic model for tethered satellite systems,tailored to enhance space debris management.Utilizing the nodal position finite element method,the model significantly improves the precision of simulating tether dynamics and captures the complex interactions involving satellite and debris attitude dynamics.This advancement allows for detailed examination of potential tether entanglements and provides crucial data for optimizing deorbiting processes.To overcome the limitations of conventional control techniques,a robust adaptive sliding mode control strategy is developed.This approach is specifically designed to manage the unpredictable conditions of the low-Earth orbit and ensure precise satellite attitude control,critical for successful debris removal.Validated through extensive numerical simulations,our model and control strategy demonstrate substantial improvements in operational reliability and safety,significantly enhancing the success rate of deorbiting missions.

文摘This paper proposes a finite-time robust flight controller, targeting for a reentry vehicle with blended aerodynamic surfaces and a reaction control system（RCS）. Firstly, a novel finite-time attitude controller is pointed out with the introduction of a nonsingular finite-time sliding mode manifold. The attitude tracking errors are mathematically proved to converge to zero within finite time which can be estimated. In order to improve the performance, a second-order finite-time sliding mode controller is further developed to effectively alleviate chattering without any deterioration of robustness and accuracy. Moreover, an optimization control allocation algorithm, using linear programming and a pulse-width pulse-frequency（PWPF） modulator, is designed to allocate torque commands for all the aerodynamic surface deflections and on–off switching-states of RCS thrusters.Simulations are provided for the reentry vehicle considering uncertain parameters and external disturbances for practical purposes, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the attitude control system.
