This paper proposes a robust control using a sliding mode controller and a fuzzy controller. Having the excellent transient response, the sliding mode controller has the poor steady state response, but the fuzzy controller has a good steady state reponse. A proposed controller combined these controllers has the quick response at the initial condition without the errors. The proposed robust nonlinear controller takes the advantage of the fuzzy controller and is the rapid and the stable response in conditions that the sliding mode controller keeps the errors at the steady state. The performance of proposed method is proved by simulation of the inverted pendulum.

This paper presents a torque ripple reduction algorithm for the switched reluctance motor drives using the fuzzy logic and the sliding mode control. A turn-on angle controller based on the fuzzy logic determines the optimal turn-on angle. In addition, a sliding mode torque control (SMTC) methods reduces torque ripples instantaneously in the commutation region. The proposed algorithm does not require complex system models considering nonlinear magnetizing or demagnetizing periods of the phase current. According to the rotor speed and torque, the proposed controller changes the turn-on angle and reference torque instantaneously until the torque ripples are minimized. The simulation and experimental results verify the validity of minimizing the torque ripple performance.

Up to now, there has been a lot of researches on the sliding mode control which has the insensitive characteristics to the variations of plant parameters, nonlinearities and external disturbances. One difficulty in applying the sliding mode control is the need for the knowledge of the full-state vector. The use of state observer is a natural step towards the relaxation of this condition. However, the exact plant-modeling is assumed to be known. Recently, there has been a remarkable advance in the microprocessor and one can construct the controller which could not realize due to hardware restriction in the past. Therefore in this paper, the PID sliding mode controller which has only one output feedback signal is suggested by means of microprocessor and the performance of electro-hydraulic servosystem compensated with this controller is proved.

In this paper, we propose the SIIM fuzzy Quasi-sliding mode controller for the system of a double inverted pendulum on a cart. Since it is difficult to handle this 6th-order system, we decoupled the entire system into three $2^{nd}$ order subsystem, and we designed the SIIM fuzzy Quasi-sliding mode controller for each subsystem, which was easy and did not require the derivation of the equivalent control. The stability of the entire system is guaranteed using Lyapunov function. The validity and robustness of the proposed controller are demonstrated through the computer simulation, and the results are compared with the results of former studies.

This paper proposes a chattering-free sliding mode control (CFSMC) method for seismically excited structures. The method is based on a fuzzy logic (FL) model applied to smooth the control force and eliminate chattering, where the switching part of the control law is replaced by an FL output. The CFSMC is robust and keeps the advantages of the conventional sliding mode control (SMC), whilst removing the chattering and avoiding the time-consuming process of generating fuzzy rule basis. The proposed method is tested on an 8-story shear frame equipped with an active tendon system. Results indicate that the new method not only can effectively enhance the seismic performance of the structural system compared to the SMC, but also ensure system stability and high accuracy with less computational cost. The CFSMC also requires less amount of energy from the active tendon system to produce the desired structural dynamic response.

A new scheme for sliding-mode control (SMC) of DC-DC converters with a constant switching frequency is proposed. The scheme is based on the averaging model and the output signal of the controller is $d^+$ or $d^-$ instead of the on or off signal of a direct sliding-mode (SM) controller or the continuous signal d = $u_{eq}$ of an indirect SM controller. Two approaches using the new scheme are also proposed and the design procedures for a buck converter are given in detail. The first approach called constant $d^+$ and $d^-$ SMC is simple, cost effective and dynamically fast. In order to improve the dynamic characteristics of the reaching phase and to alleviate chattering, the second approach called reaching law SMC is also presented. Analyses and simulation results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed scheme.

A new robust sliding mode control with disturbance and state observers has been proposed to control the nozzle angle of a water-jet system for a Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV). As the water-jet system of a ship is subjected to direct disturbances owing to the exposure to the marine environment in water, it requires a robust control. A state observer and a disturbance observer are added to the water jet nozzle control system to achieve a robust control against disturbances. To verify the performance of the proposed algorithm, a test bed is constructed by a propulsion system used in the popular USV. This proposed algorithm has been evaluated by comparing to the existing algorithm through experiments. The results show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is better than that of the conventional PID or sliding mode controller when controlling the steering of the USV with disturbances.

Satellite formation flying is currently an active area of research in the aerospace engineering. There are many categories for this research such as the determination of initial conditions, formation keeping, configuration and reconfiguration. In this study, a tracking controller using sliding mode techniques is designed to control a satellite for the satellite formation flying. In general, Hill's equations are used to describe the relative motion of the follower satellite with respect to the leader satellite. But, the modified Hill's equations considering J2 perturbation were used for the design of sliding mode controller. Sliding mode control law causes the chattering phenomenon because it is a discontinuous control. Dead-zone was used to avoid the chattering. The Extended Kalman filter was applied to estimate the state vector based on the measurements of relative distance and velocity between two satellites.

A design of the global optimal sliding mode control is presented to control the second order uncertain time varying system with torque limit. With specified ranges of parametric uncertainties and torque limit, the minimum arrival time to reference inputs can be calculated. The proposed control scheme is applied to the motor system carrying loads. The merit of the proposed control scheme is that the arriving time at the reference input, which is the revolution angle, and the maximum allowable acceleration are expressed in a closed form solution. The superior performance of the proposed control scheme is validated by the computer simulation and experiments comparing with other sliding mode controllers.

This paper presents motion control of the precision stage composed of the piezoelectric actuator and flexible hinges. The stage shows approximately 27% overshoot when the stage was applied to 30V square wave input voltage. Also, the stage shows nonlinear response characteristics including hysteresis. This paper proposes feedback control technique to suppress the phenomenon of hysteresis and overshoot using the sliding mode control scheme with the integrator. Also, this paper suggests the method that searches important parameters of sliding mode control and observer using Genetic Algorithm. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm, experimental validations are performed.
