Apply Sliding Mode Theory to Solve Control Problems Interest in SMC has grown rapidly
since the first edition of this book was published. This second edition includes new results …

Sliding mode control, also known as variable structure control, is an important robust control
approach and has attractive features to keep systems insensitive to uncertainties on the …

This book reviews the basic ideas of sliding mode control (SMC) theory and demonstrates
the deep interconnection of its different elements. The scope of the book is broad …

Presents a guide to sliding mode control for practicing control engineers. It offers an
accurate assessment of the so-called chattering phenomenon, catalogs implementable …

This book is a collection of invited chapters covering several areas of modern sliding mode
control theory. Preparing this book we tried to identify key contributions defining the …

It has been well established that the variable structure and sliding mode control design
methodologies are appropriate for robust control. This control design framework has many …

This book comprises a selection of papers that were first presented at VSS98 (5th
International Workshop on Variable Structure Systems) held in Sarasota, Florida. This …

Classical sliding mode control (SMC) uses a discontinuous control action to drive the state
from an arbitrary initial state to the origin along a user-specified path and exhibits excellent …

The sliding mode control approach is recognized as one of the efficient tools to design
robust controllers for complex high-order nonlinear dynamic plant operating under …

The effective application of sliding mode control to mechanical systems is not straightforward
because of the sensitivity of these systems to chattering. Higher-order sliding modes can …
