In this paper we present the differential geometric approach for the analysis and design of sliding modes in nonlinear variable structure feedback systems. We also design the robust controller for the nonlinear system using variable structure control theory on the basis of differential geometric methods and feedback linearization applying Min-Max control based on the Lyapunov second method. The robustness against parameter uncertainties for robot manipulators with flexible joint is considered. Simulation results are presented and show the advantage of the proposed nonlinear control method.

In this paper, a variable structure current control scheme for field-oriented induction motor drive is presented. The current controller based on space voltage vector PWM scheme consists of feedforward, decouple and variable structure control. The proposed current controller tracks reference value quickly, has robust property against parameter variation and disturbance, reduces switching frequency and improves performance of induction motor drive. Finally, the proposed current controller is verified by digital simulation

The performances of a vehicle active suspension system with an optimal variable structure controller are compared to those of passive suspension system and active suspension systems with sky-hook and optimal controllers. The quater car model has a 2 DOF which accounts for vertical motions of a sprung and a unsprung masses. The transient responses are analyzed when a vehicle passing through a bump with a constant speed and the frequency responses are analyzed for white noise input at wheel. Particulary, RMS responses are also analyzed. It is shown that the optimal variable structure controller gives better performance of the vehicle active suspensio system than an optimal and a sky-hook controller.

In this paper, the author proposed FLVSC(Fuzzy Logic Variable Structure Controller), of which control rules are extracted from the concepts of VSC(Variable Structure Control). FLC(Fuzzy Logic Controller) based on linguistic rules has the advantages of not needing of some exact mathematical model for plant to be controlled. The proposed method has the characteristics which are viewed in conventional VSC, e.g. insensitivity to a class of disturbances, parameter variations and uncertainties in sliding mode. In addition, the method has the properties of FLC - noise rejection capability etc. The computer simulations have been carried out for a DC servo motor to show the usefulness of the proposed method and the effects of disturbances and parameter variations are considered.

A Nonlinear model-based Hybrid Controller (NHC) is developed which consists of the adaptive proportional-integral-feedforward (PIF) gains and variable structure controller. The controller has the robustness against modeling uncertainty and is applied to the trajectory tracking control of single-input, single-output nonlinear systems. The essence of the scheme is to divide the control into four different terms. Namely, the adaptive P-I-F gains and variable structure controller are used to accomplish the specific control actions by each terms. The robustness of the controller is guaranteed by the feedback of estimated uncertainty and the performance specification given by the adaptation of PIF gains using the second method of Lyapunov. The variable structure controller is incorporated to regulate the initial peak of the tracking error during the parameter adaptation is not settled yet. The newly developed NHC method is applied to the power tracking control of a nuclear reactor and the simulation results show great improvement in tracking performance compared with the conventional model-based control methods.

This paper considers a sliding mode controller for a depth and course control of a class of submersible Vehicles. Since the vehicle used here shows complex dynamic characteristics sensitive to speed variation and buoyancy, robustness in control of vertical and horizontal plane motions of the vehicle is achieved by using the sliding mode controller of which a structure varies according to a pre-designed principle, so called the variable structure control. To compare this controller with another in robustness, PID controller for the same model of vehicle is designed. From various simulations for two controllers, it is shown that the sliding mode controller is the more robust anainst to modeling errors and disturbances.

A controller of interconnected power systems is investigated using an optimal multidimensional variable structure control. The switching hyperplane of the variable structure stabilizer is obtained by minimizing a quadratic performance index in continuous-time. A special feature of the optimal multidimensional variable structure stabilizer is that, when it is operated in the so-called sliding mode, the system response becomes insensitive to changes in the plant parameters. A digital simulation is performed by a digital computer using the Advanced Continuous Simulation Language (ACSL) package, which shows that the dynamic performance of the power system in response to mechanical torque changes is improved when optimal multidimensional variable sturcture stabilizers are employed.

In this paper, we consider variable structure controller design of a active magnetic bearing(AMB). In particular, we design a switching hyperplane, considering coupling characteristic among each magnet. This method is designed by applying decentralized control method. Controller design consist of two factors that is, one is linear control part to drive state variables to zero asymptotically and the other is a nonlinear controller part to maintain within neighborhood of switching hyperplane. Finally, A control method designed here is checked by simulation, which shows good results.

A Class of fuzzy controller based on the variable structure system(VSS) technique in which different structures of controllers are fuzzily switched according to the switching rules in proppsed. The structure of proposed controllers was motivated by the characteristics of position type fuzzy controller and velocity type fuzzy controller ; the former generally gives good performance in transient perod and the latter are capable of reducing steady state error of response. To show the usefulness of the proposed controller, it is applied to several systems that is difficult to stabilize or difficult to get satisfactory responsed by conventional fuzzy controllers.

It is well known that Variable Structure Controller(VSC) is robust to parameters variation and disturbance but its performance depends on the design parameters such as switching gain and slope of sliding surface. This paper proposes a more robust VSC that is composed of local VSC's. Each local VSC considers the local system dynamics with narrow parameter variation and disturbance. First we optimize the local VSC's by use of Evolution Strategy, and next we use Artificial Neural Network to generalize the local VSC's and construct the overall VSC in order to cover the whole range of parameter variation and disturbance. Simulation on BLDC motor current control shows that the proposed VSC is superior to the conventional VSC.
