A sliding mode fuzzy control (SMFC) algorithm is presented for vibration of large structures. Rule-base of the fuzzy inference engine is constructed based on the sliding mode control, which is one of the nonlinear control algorithms. Fuzziness of the controller makes the control system robust against the uncertainties in the system parameters and the input excitation. Non-linearity of the control rule makes the controller more effective than linear controllers. Design procedure based on the present fuzzy control is more convenient than those of the conventional algorithms based on complex mathematical analysis, such as linear quadratic regulator and sliding mode control(SMC). Robustness of presented controller is illustrated by examining the loop transfer function. For verification of the present algorithm, a numerical study is carried out on the benchmark problem initiated by the ASCE Committee on Structural Control. To achieve a high level of realism, various aspects are considered such as actuator-structure interaction, modeling error, sensor noise, actuator time delay, precision of the A/D and D/A converters, magnitude of control force, and order of control model. Performance of the SMFC is examined in comparison with those of other control algorithms such as $H_{mixed 2/{\infty}}$ optimal polynomial control, neural networks control, and SMC, which were reported by other researchers. The results indicate that the present SMFC is an efficient and attractive control method, since the vibration responses of the structure can be reduced very effectively and the design procedure is simple and convenient.

In this paper, we proposed an adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control for nonlinear systems without parameter projection method. By modifying the controller structure, the parameters of the estimated input gain function are guaranteed not being identically zero and it is shown that the control scheme will not cause any implementation problem even if the estimated value of input gain function is zero at any moment during on-line operations. Except for the input gain function which an approximate estimate for its lower bound is needed, the proposed control scheme does not assume a priori the exact values of the bounding parameters. Based on Lyapunov synthesis methods, the overall control system guarantees that the tracking error asymptotically converges to zero and that all signals involved in controller are uniformly bounded. This can be illustrated by the simulation results for an inverted pendulum system.

Although the general sliding mode control has the robust property, bounds on the disturbances and parameter variations are known to the designer of the system control. But sometimes these bounds may not be easily obtained. However, fuzzy control provides an effective way to design the controller of the system with the disturbances and parameter variations. Therefore, combination of the best feature of fuzzy control and sliding mode control is considered. When using the conventional VSC, generally the reaching phase problem occurs, which cause the system response to be sensitive to parameter variations and external disturbances. In order to overcome these problems, an adaptive fuzzy VSC with sliding surface eliminating reaching phase is proposed. The validity of the proposed scheme is shown by results of experiments for the BLDC motor.

This paper presents a robust and superior control performance of a quarter-vehicle electrorheological (ER) suspension system. In order to achieve this goal, a moving sliding mode control algorithm is adopted, and its moving strategy is tuned by fuzzy logic. As a first step, ER damper is designed and manufactured for a passenger vehicle suspension system, and its field-dependent damping force is experimentally evaluated. After formulating the governing equation of motion for the quarter-vehicle ER suspension system, a stable sliding surface and moving algorithm based on fuzzy logic are formulated. The fuzzy moving sliding mode controller is then constructed and experimentally implemented. Control performances of the ER suspension system are evaluated in both time and frequency domains.

Although the general sliding model control has the robust property, bounds on the disturbances and parameter variations should be known a prior to the designer of the control system. However, these bounds may not be easily obtained. Fuzzy logic provides an effective way to design a controller of the system with disturbances and parameter variations. Therefore, combination of the best feature of the fuzzy logic control and the sliding mode control is considered. In this paper, the adaptive fuzzy variable structure controller developed for variables of fuzzy logic. A variable length pendulum system is used to demonstrate the availability of the proposed algorithm.

일반적으로 슬라이딩모드 제어는 강인한 특성을 가지나, 시스템 제어의 설계자는 외란이나 변수변화에 대한 최대 값을 알아야 한다. 그러나, 이와 같은 최대 값은 종종 쉽게 구할 수가 없다. 이에 반해 퍼지제어는 불확실한 외란이나 변수변화를 가지는 시스템의 제어기를 설계하는 효과적인 방법을 제시하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이 두 가지 제어이론의 장점을 결합하여 자기부상시스템에 적용할 고성능의 제어기를 설계하고자 한다.

This paper shows that the proposed fuzzy-sliding mode for SCARA robot control could reduce chattering problemed in sliding mode control and is robust against parameter uncertainties. It was very small quantities of chattering in the fuzzy-sliding mode control conpared with that in sliding mode control with two dead-band. In here, the sliding mode control with two dead-band is the method to reduce some chattering by changing into a continuous variable lower control input gain when a state value in pahase palne converged sithin two dead-band. But, the fuzzy-sliding mode control for more reducing chattering is the method to change control input by slicing mode into that by fuzzy rule within two dead-band. Simulations show that the effect of reducing chattering by the fuzzy-sliding mode is superior to sliding mode control with two dead-band.

This paper presents an approach to nonlinear engine idle controller and intake manifold absolute pressure(MAP) observer based on mean torque production model. A stable engine idle speed is important in that the unstable engine Idle mode can make engine to drooping or stall state. A sliding fuzzy controller has been designed to control engine idle speed under load disturbance. A sliding observer is also developed to estimate the intake manifold absolute pressure and compared with the actual MAP sensor value. The sliding mode observer has shown good robustness and good tracking performance. The inputs of sliding fuzzy controller are the errors of rpm and MAP. The output is a duty cycle(DC) for driving a idle speed control valve(ISCV).

This paper presents a new dc-motor position control approached by Variable Structure System. In order to eliminate a steady-state position error, we propose a switching function composed of position error, velocity, and current ripple. The switching function has an advantage compared to other ones. To determine the control signal voltage, we use a fuzzy logic method. The simulation results show expected performances.
