  • Published : 2002.07.01

Abstract

In this paper, a design methodology of fuzzy sliding mode control scheme for a hydraulic elevator controlled by inverter is presented. The proposed scheme uses a fuzzy sliding mode controller(FSMC), which is designed based on the similarity between the fuzzy logic control(FLC) and the sliding mode control(SMC). The proposed method has advantages that the stability and the robustness of the FLC are proved and ensured by the sliding mode control law, and the computation burden could be reduced greatly. The validity and the effectiveness of the proposed control method have been shown through the real world industrial application results.
