In piezoelectric actuators (PEAs), which suffer from inherent nonlinearities, sliding mode control (SMC) has proven to be a successful control strategy. Nonetheless, in micropositioning systems with time delay, integral proportional control (PI), and SMC, feedback control schemes have a tendency to overcompensate and, consequently, high controller gains must be rejected. This may produce a slow and inaccurate response. This paper presents a novel control strategy that deals with time-delay micropositioning systems aimed at achieving precise positioning by combining an open-loop control with a modified SMC scheme. The proposed SMC with dynamical correction (SMC-WDC) uses the dynamical system model to adapt the SMC inputs and avoid undesirable control response caused by delays. In order to develop the SMC-WDC scheme, an exhaustive analysis on the micropositioning system was first performed. Then, a mixed control strategy, combining inverse open-loop control and SMC-WDC, was developed. The performance of the presented control scheme was analyzed and compared experimentally with other control strategies (i.e., PI and SMC with saturation and hyperbolic functions) using different reference signals. It was found that the SMC-WDC strategy presents the best performance, that is, the fastest response and highest accuracy, especially against sudden changes of reference setpoints (frequencies >10 Hz). Additionally, if the setpoint reference frequencies are higher than 10 Hz, high integral gains are counterproductive (since the control response increases the delay), although if frequencies are below 1 Hz the integral control delay does not affect the system’s accuracy. The SMC-WDC proved to be an effective strategy for micropositioning systems, dealing with time delay and other uncertainties to achieve the setpoint command fast and precisely without chattering.

Aiming at the nonlinear characteristics of VIENNA rectifier and using differential geometry theory, a dual closed-loop control strategy is proposed, that is, outer voltage loop using sliding mode control strategy and inner current loop using feedback linearization control strategy. On the basis of establishing the nonlinear mathematical model of VIENNA rectifier ind-qsynchronous rotating coordinate system, an affine nonlinear model of VIENNA rectifier is established. The theory of feedback linearization is utilized to linearize the inner current loop so as to realize thed-qaxis variable decoupling. The control law of outer voltage loop is deduced by utilizing sliding mode control and index reaching law. In order to verify the feasibility of the proposed control strategy, simulation model is built in simulation platform of Matlab/Simulink. Simulation results verify the validity of the proposed control strategy, and the controller has a strong robustness in the case of parameter variations or load disturbances.

The quasi-static operations of MEMS mirror are very sensitive to undesired oscillations due to its very low damping. It has been shown that closed-loop control can be superior to reduce those oscillations than open-loop control in the literature. For the closed-loop control, the conventional way of implementing sliding mode control (SMC) algorithm is forward Euler method, which results in numerical chattering in the control input and output. This paper proposes an implicit Euler implementation scheme of super twisting observer and twisting control for a commercial MEMS mirror actuated by an electrostatic staggered vertical comb (SVC) drive structure. The famous super-twisting algorithm is used as an observer and twisting SMC is used as a controller. Both are discretized by an implicit Euler integration method, and their implementation algorithms are provided. Simulations verify that, as compared to traditional sliding mode control implementation, the proposed scheme reduces the chattering both in trajectory tracking output and control input in presence of model uncertainties and external disturbances. The comparison demonstrates the potential applications of the proposed scheme in industrial applications in terms of feasibility and performance.

This article proposes a novel adaptive super-twisting sliding mode control scheme with a time-delay estimation technique (ASTSMC-TDE) to control the yaw angle of a single ducted-fan unmanned aerial vehicle system. Such systems are highly nonlinear; hence, the proposed control scheme is a combination of several control schemes; super-twisting sliding mode, TDE technique to estimate the nonlinear factors of the system, and an adaptive sliding mode. The tracking error of the ASTSMC-TDE is guaranteed to be uniformly ultimately bounded using Lyapunov stability theory. Moreover, to enhance the versatility and the practical feasibility of the proposed control scheme, a comparison study between the proposed controller and a proportional-integral-derivative controller (PID) is conducted. The comparison is achieved through two different scenarios: a normal mode and an abnormal mode. Simulation and experimental tests are carried out to provide an in-depth investigation of the performance of the proposed ASTSMC-TDE control system.
