High-precision trajectory control is considered as an important factor in the performance of industrial two-axis contour motion systems. This research presents an adaptive direct fuzzy cerebellar model articulation controller (CMAC) sliding mode control (DFCMACSMC) for the precise control of the industrial XY-axis motion system. The FCMAC was utilized to approximate an ideal controller, and the weights of FCMAC were on-line tuned by the derived adaptive law based on the Lyapunov criterion. With this derivation in mind, the asymptotic stability of the developed motion system could be guaranteed. The two-axis stage system was experimentally investigated using four contours, namely, circle, bowknot, heart, and star reference contours. The experimental results indicate that the proposed DFCMACSMC method achieved the improved tracking capability, and so reveal that the DFCMACSMC scheme outperformed other schemes of the model uncertainties and cross-coupling interference.

This paper presents a novel nonlinear sliding mode control scheme that combines on-line model modification, a nonlinear sliding mode controller, and a disturbance observer to solve the essential problems in spacecraft electromagnetic docking control, such as model uncertainties, unknown external disturbances, and inherent strong nonlinearity and coupling. An improved far-field model of electromagnetic force which is much more accurate than the widely used far-field model is proposed to enable the model parameters to be on-line self-adjusting. Then, the relationship between magnetic moment allocation and energy consumption is derived, and the optimal direction of the magnetic moment vector is obtained. Based on the proposed improved far-field model and the research results of magnetic moment allocation law, a fast-nonsingular terminal mode controller driven by a disturbance observer is designed in the presence of model uncertainties and external disturbances. The proposed control method is guaranteed to be chattering-free and to possess superior properties such as finite-time convergence, high-precision tracking, and strong robustness. Two simulation scenarios are conducted to illustrate the necessity of modifying the far-field model and the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme. The simulation results indicate the realization of electromagnetic soft docking and validate the merits of the proposed control scheme. In the end of this paper, some conclusions are drawn.

Underwater vehicles (UVs) are subjected to various environmental disturbances due to ocean currents, propulsion systems, and un-modeled disturbances. In practice, it is very challenging to design a control system to maintain UVs stayed at the desired static position permanently under these conditions. Therefore, in this study, a nonlinear dynamics and robust positioning control of the over-actuated autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) under the effects of ocean current and model uncertainties are presented. First, a motion equation of the over-actuated AUV under the effects of ocean current disturbances is established, and a trajectory generation of the over-actuated AUV heading angle is constructed based on the line of sight (LOS) algorithm. Second, a dynamic positioning (DP) control system based on motion control and an allocation control is proposed. For this, motion control of the over-actuated AUV based on the dynamic sliding mode control (DSMC) theory is adopted to improve the system robustness under the effects of the ocean current and model uncertainties. In addition, the stability of the system is proved based on Lyapunov criteria. Then, using the generalized forces generated from the motion control module, two different methods for optimal allocation control module: the least square (LS) method and quadratic programming (QP) method are developed to distribute a proper thrust to each thruster of the over-actuated AUV. Simulation studies are conducted to examine the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed DP controller. The results show that the proposed DP controller using the QP algorithm provides higher stability with smaller steady-state error and stronger robustness.

Model uncertainties and actuator delays are two factors that degrade the performance of active structural control systems. A new robust control system is proposed for control of an active tuned mass damper (AMD) in a high-rise building. The controller comprises a two-loop sliding model controller in conjunction with a dynamic state predictor. The sliding model controller is responsible for model uncertainties and the state predictor compensates for the time delays due to actuator dynamics and process delay. A reduced model that is validated against experimental data was constructed and equipped with an electro-mechanical AMD system mounted on the top storey. The proposed controller was implemented in the test structure and its performance under seismic disturbances was simulated using a seismic shake table. Moreover, robustness of the proposed controller was examined via variation of the test structure parameters. The shake table test results reveal the effectiveness of the proposed controller at tackling the simulated disturbances in the presence of model uncertainties and input delay.

This project proposes a new SCARA variant with 4 degree of freedom. The proposed variant is achieved by swapping joint 2 and joint 3 of the standard SCARA robots. An adaptive controller is defined based on the advantages and disadvantages of PD, and SMC controllers.The purpose of the project is to understand the dynamics of the variant and to track the performance for trajectories. Simulations for tracking performance are carried under linear and circular trajectories. The variant is studied over the three controllers; PD, PD-SMC and A-PD-SMC. The variant under the adaptive controller is most efficient in terms of tracking performance and the control inputs to the system. The system is simulated under high speed and with the influence of friction at the joints. The control gains are held constant for both the trajectories and hence the controller is able to perform good under changing trajectories. Due to the use of the adaptive law, the system is at the ease of implementation and since no priori knowledge if the system is needed, it is model free. Therefore, the proposed adaptive PD-SMC has proven to provide good, robust trajectory tracking.

Pneumatic systems are used in a wide range of industrial robotic and automation systems due to their interesting properties. However, air compressibility, friction, and the other nonlinear characteristics of a servo pneumatic system are difficulties, which contribute to use modern controllers. Conventional linear controllers face steady-state error and uncertainty. Nonlinear modeling with model-based control is a good choice to deal with this problem. In this paper, behavior equation of flow and pressure, friction, and other nonlinear factors are studied. Afterward to reach precise position tracking and low steady error, sliding mode control is proposed. In this way, measurement of pressures and other states of system is required. To reduce the cost of using pressure sensor, observation of pressure with nonlinear high gain observer is suggested. It was seen that the new proposed approach solved the observability problem of servo pneumatic systems. Pressure signal of each sides of cylinder are observed simultaneously by measurement of piston position. Finally, stability of designed controller is studied in the presence of observed states. Experimental results validate the advantage of using designed controller-observer instead of conventional proportional–integral–derivative controller with different input signals in the presence of high friction actuator.
