This paper presents the finite-time attitude control problem for reentry vehicle with redundant actuators in consideration of planet uncertainties and external disturbances. Firstly, feedback linearization technique is used to cancel the nonlinearities of equations of motion to construct a basic mode for attitude controller. Secondly, two kinds of time-varying sliding mode control methods with disturbance observer are integrated with the basic mode in order to enhance the control performance and system robustness. One method is designed based on boundary layer technique and the other is a novel second-order sliding model control method. The finite-time stability analyses of both resultant closed-loop systems are carried out. Furthermore, after attitude controller produces the torque commands, an optimization control allocation approach is introduced to allocate them into aerodynamic surface deflections and on-off reaction control system thrusts. Finally, the numerical simulation results demonstrate that both of the time-varying sliding mode control methods are robust to uncertainties and disturbances without chattering phenomenon. Moreover, the proposed second-order sliding mode control method possesses better control accuracy.

In this paper, a novel discontinuous second-order sliding mode control approach has been developed to handle sliding mode dynamics with a nonvanishing mismatched disturbance by using Lyapunov theory and a finite-time disturbance observer. Firstly, the finite-time disturbance observer is designed to estimate the nonvanishing mismatched disturbance. Secondly, a virtual controller has been constructed based on the estimated value such that the sliding variable can be stabilized to zero in a finite time. Then, the real discontinuous controller is designed to guarantee that the virtual controller can be well tracked in a finite time. Lyapunov analysis also verifies the finite-time stability of the closed-loop sliding mode control system. The developed discontinuous second-order sliding mode control method possesses two appealing features including strong robustness with respect to the matched and mismatched nonvanishing disturbances, and relaxation on the constant upper bound of uncertainties widely used in a conventional second-order sliding mode. Finally, an academic example is illustrated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this study, a fractional-order sliding mode controller is effectively proposed to stabilize a nonlinear power system in a fixed time. State trajectories of a nonlinear power system show nonlinear behaviors on the angle and frequency of the generator, phase angle, and magnitude of the load voltage, which would seriously affect the safe and stable operation of the power grid. Therefore, fractional calculus is applied to design a fractional-order sliding mode controller which can effectively suppress the inherent chattering phenomenon in sliding mode control to make the nonlinear power system converge to the equilibrium point in a fixed time based on the fixed-time stability theory. Compared with the finite-time control method, the convergence time of the proposed fixed-time fractional-order sliding mode controller is not dependent on the initial conditions and can be exactly evaluated, thus overcoming the shortcomings of the finite-time control method. Finally, superior performances of the fractional-order sliding mode controller are effectively verified by comparing with the existing finite-time control methods and integral order sliding mode control through numerical simulations.

This article is motivated by the control issues of the translational oscillator with rotational actuator system in the existence of uncertain disturbances. A nonlinear disturbance observer and a global sliding mode control method are proposed for the disturbance estimation and stabilization of the translational oscillator with rotational actuator system. Compared with the existing control methods, uncertain disturbances are estimated by the proposed nonlinear disturbance observer. In addition, the sliding mode control method is continuous and global robustness with respect to disturbances. Specifically, to facilitate the controller design, the dynamics of the translational oscillator with rotational actuator system are rearranged as the cascade form first. Then, a virtual signal is constructed and corresponding error dynamics are derived. Subsequently, a nonlinear disturbance observer and a continuous global sliding mode control method are proposed for the disturbance rejection and stabilization of the translational oscillator with rotational actuator system. Finally, simulation results are provided to verify the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed controller.

A novel full-order terminal sliding-mode controller (FOTSMC) based on the finite-time disturbance observer (FTDO) is proposed for the “JIAOLONG” manned submersible with lumped disturbances. First, a finite-time disturbance observer (FTDO) is developed to estimate the lumped disturbances including the external disturbances and model uncertainties. Second, a full-order terminal sliding-mode surface is designed for the manned submersible, whose sliding-mode motion behaves as full-order dynamics rather than reduced-order dynamics in conventional sliding-mode control systems. Then, a continuous sliding-mode control law is developed to avoid chattering phenomenon, as well as to drive the system outputs to the desired reference trajectory in finite time. Furthermore, the closed-loop system stability analysis is given by Lyapunov theory. Finally, the simulation results demonstrate the satisfactory tracking performance and excellent disturbance rejection capability of the proposed finite-time disturbance observer based full-order terminal sliding-mode control (FTDO-FOTSMC) method.

This paper proposes an adaptive smooth second-order sliding mode control law for a class of uncertain non-linear systems. The key point of this control law is ensuring a smooth control signal considering parametric uncertainty and disturbances with unknown bounds. The proposed control method is obtained by introducing a continuous function under the integral and using adaptive gains. The switching function and its derivative are forced to zero in finite time. This is achieved using a smooth control command and without the prior knowledge of upper bound parameters of uncertainties. The finite-time stability is proved based on a quadratic Lyapunov approach and the reaching time is estimated. This structure is used to create a homing guidance law and the efficiency is evaluated via simulations.
