Adaptive backstepping sliding mode control for chaos synchronization of two coupled neurons in the external electrical stimulation

In this paper, a robust control system combining backstepping and sliding mode control techniques is used to realize the synchronization of two gap junction coupled chaotic FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) neurons in the external electrical stimulation. A backstepping sliding mode approach is applied firstly to compensate the uncertainty which occur in the control system. However, the bound of uncertainty is necessary in the design of the backstepping sliding mode controller. To relax the requirement for the bound of uncertainty, an adaptive backstepping sliding mode controller with a simple adaptive law to adapt the uncertainty in real time is designed. The adaptive backstepping sliding mode control system is robust for time-varying external disturbances. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the control scheme.

Adaptive sliding mode control in a novel class of chaotic systems

This paper proposes a robust adaptive sliding mode control strategy for an introduced class of uncertain chaotic systems. Using the sliding mode control technique and based on Lyapunov stability theory, a time varying sliding surface is determined and an adaptive gain of the robust control law will be tuned to stabilize the new chaotic class. Unlike many well-known methods of the sliding mode control, no knowledge on the bound of uncertainty and disturbance is required. Simulation results are demonstrated for several chaotic examples to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive sliding mode control scheme.

Finally, numerical simulation results are presented and compared to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Suppression of chaotic behavior in horizontal platform systems based on an adaptive sliding mode control scheme

This work presents an adaptive sliding mode control scheme to elucidate the robust chaos suppression control of non-autonomous chaotic systems. The proposed control scheme utilizes extended systems to ensure that continuous control input is obtained in order to avoid chattering phenomenon as frequently in conventional sliding mode control systems. A switching surface is adopted to ensure the relative ease in stabilizing the extended error dynamics in the sliding mode. An adaptive sliding mode controller (ASMC) is then derived to guarantee the occurrence of the sliding motion, even when the chaotic horizontal platform system (HPS) is undergoing parametric uncertainties. Based on Lyapunov stability theorem, control laws are derived. In addition to guaranteeing that uncertain horizontal platform chaotic systems can be stabilized to a steady state, the proposed control scheme ensures asymptotically tracking of any desired trajectory. Furthermore, the numerical simulations verify the accuracy of the proposed control scheme, which is applicable to another chaotic system based on the same design scheme.

This paper proposes a novel fractional-order sliding mode approach for stabilization and synchronization of a class of fractional-order chaotic systems. Based on the fractional calculus a stable integral type fractional-order sliding surface is introduced. Using the fractional Lyapunov stability theorem, a single sliding mode control law is proposed to ensure the existence of the sliding motion in finite time. The proposed control scheme is applied to stabilize/synchronize a class of fractional-order chaotic systems in the presence of model uncertainties and external disturbances. Some numerical simulations are performed to confirm the theoretical results of the paper. It is worth noticing that the proposed fractional-order sliding mode controller can be applied to control a broad range of fractional-order dynamical systems.     

Fuzzy fractional order sliding mode controller for nonlinear systems

In this paper, an intelligent robust fractional surface sliding mode control for a nonlinear system is studied. At first a sliding PD surface is designed and then, a fractional form of these networks PD^α, is proposed. Fast reaching velocity into the switching hyperplane in the hitting phase and little chattering phenomena in the sliding phase is desired. To reduce the chattering phenomenon in sliding mode control (SMC), a fuzzy logic controller is used to replace the discontinuity in the signum function at the reaching phase in the sliding mode control. For the problem of determining and optimizing the parameters of fuzzy sliding mode controller (FSMC), genetic algorithm (GA) is used. Finally, the performance and the significance of the controlled system two case studies (robot manipulator and coupled tanks) are investigated under variation in system parameters and also in presence of an external disturbance. The simulation results signify performance of genetic-based fuzzy fractional sliding mode controller.     

Robust control of a spatial robot using fuzzy sliding modes

In order to improve the performance of the sliding mode controller, fuzzy logic sliding mode controller is proposed in this study. The control gain of the conventional sliding mode controller is tuned by a fuzzy logic rule base and, also dynamic sliding surfaces are obtained by changing their slopes using the error states of the system in another fuzzy logic algorithm. These controllers are then combined in order to enhance the performance. Afterwards, proposed controllers were used in trajectory control of a three degrees of freedom spatial robot, which is subjected to noise and parameter variations. Finally, the controllers introduced are compared with a PID controller which is commonly used for control of robotic manipulators in industry. The results indicate the superior performance of the proposed controller.     

Simplex sliding mode control for nonlinear uncertain systems via chaos optimization

As an emerging effective approach to nonlinear robust control, simplex sliding mode control demonstrates some attractive features not possessed by the conventional sliding mode control method, from both theoretical and practical points of view. However, no systematic approach is currently available for computing the simplex control vectors in nonlinear sliding mode control. In this paper, chaos-based optimization is exploited so as to develop a systematic approach to seeking the simplex control vectors; particularly, the flexibility of simplex control is enhanced by making the simplex control vectors dependent on the Euclidean norm of the sliding vector rather than being constant, which result in both reduction of the chattering and speedup of the convergence. Computer simulation on a nonlinear uncertain system is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control method.     

Robust synchronization of drive–response chaotic systems via adaptive sliding mode control

A robust adaptive sliding control scheme is developed in this study to achieve synchronization for two identical chaotic systems in the presence of uncertain system parameters, external disturbances and nonlinear control inputs. An adaptation algorithm is given based on the Lyapunov stability theory. Using this adaptation technique to estimate the upper-bounds of parameter variation and external disturbance uncertainties, an adaptive sliding mode controller is then constructed without requiring the bounds of parameter and disturbance uncertainties to be known in advance. It is proven that the proposed adaptive sliding mode controller can maintain the existence of sliding mode in finite time in uncertain chaotic systems. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

Dynamics and chaos control in nonlinear electrostatic transducers

In this paper, we analyze the dynamics of a system consisting of two coupled nonlinearly Duffing oscillators, obtained from a nonlinear electrostatic device which is a prototype of emitters and receivers in communication engineering. Inverse or backward period doubling cascades and sudden transition to chaos are observed. A sliding mode controller is applied to control the electrostatic transducers system. The sliding surface used is one dimension higher than the traditional surface and guarantees its passage through the initial states of the controlled system. By means of the design of sliding mode dynamics characteristics, the controlled system performance is arbitrarily determined by assigning the switching gain of the sliding mode dynamics. Therefore, using the characteristic of this sliding mode we aim to design a controller that can meet the desired specification and use less control energy by comparing with the result in the current literature. The results show that the proposed controller can steer electrostatic transducers to the desired reference trajectory without chattering phenomenon and abrupt state change.     

Optimal sliding mode control for nonlinear systems with time-delay

This paper is concerned with the sliding mode control (SMC) for a class of nonlinear systems with time-delay. A novel optimal sliding mode is proposed by using the successive approximation approach (SAA). The stability of the nonlinear sliding mode is analyzed. The switching manifold ensures that the state trajectories of the closed-loop system converge to zero in an optimal fashion on the ideal sliding surface. Furthermore, the convergence velocity of every state trajectory on the ideal sliding surface can be adjusted through choosing the parameters of the quadratic performance index. A numerical simulation is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed design approach.
