In this paper, adaptive variable structure control is proposed for Electromagnetic Suspension(EMS). Although variable structure control shows excellent robustness to unstructured modelling uncertainty, such as flux leakage and saturation, it has several drawbacks that severely limit practical applicability such as high control activity and control chattering. To minimize these effects, the mass of the electromagnet and efficiency of levitation force are estimated on-line to reduce the range of system uncertainty. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is verified by experimental results using a 1.5kg electromagnet and DSP (TMS320C31).

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

A variable structure controller is developed for an AC servo motor used in CNC milling machines. The designed controller is implemented as an outer loop controller to a factory designed motor-servopack system. The robustness parameter is tuned for a fast response when the speed tracking error is large, while it is tuned for small oscillations when the speed tracking error is small. The designed controller is installed on a CNC machine using a PC. Cutting experiments show improved performance over the factory-designed controller.

The chattering phenominon is the one of the problems on Variable Structure Controller(VSC). To alleviate this problem, Modified Variable Structure Controller(MVSC) with sliding sector is presented in this paper. This controller is adopted to the position drive system of brushless dc motor. For the simplification of hardware, the current controller also uses the sliding mode control method. Computer simulations are presented to show chattering alleviation of the proposed control scheme.

In this paper, a new robust variable structure controller based on a nonlinear integral type sliding surface is presented for the control of uncertain systems with mismatched uncertainties and disturbance. A nonlinear integral type sliding surface is suggested for removing the reaching phase. After its ideal sliding dynamics is obtained, the two design methods are presented. A corresponding control input is proposed to satisfy the closed loop stability in the sense of Lyapunov and the existence condition of the sliding mode on the nonlinear integral type sliding surface, which will be investigated in Theorem 1. Through a design example and simulation study, the usefulness of the proposed controller is verified.

In this paper, a new discrete static output feedback variable structure controller based on a new dynamic-type sliding surface and output feedback discrete version of the disturbance observer is suggested for the control of uncertain linear systems. The reaching phase is completely removed by introducing a new proposed dynamic-type sliding surface. The output feedback discrete version of disturbance observer is derived for effective compensation of uncertainties and disturbance. A corresponding control with disturbance compensation is selected to guarantee the quasi sliding mode on the predetermined dynamic-type sliding surface for guaranteeing the designed output in the dynamic-type sliding surface from any initial condition for all the parameter variations and disturbances. Using Lyapunov function, the closed loop stability and the existence condition of the quasi sliding mode is proved. Finally, an illustrative example is presented to show the effectiveness of the algorithm.

In this paper, a systematic design of a robust nonlinear multivariable variable structure controller based on state dependent nonlinear form is presented for the control of MIMO uncertain affine nonlinear systems with mismatched uncertainties and matched disturbance. After a MIMO uncertain affine nonlinear system is represented in the form of state dependent nonlinear system, a systematic design of a robust nonlinear variable structure controller is presented. To be linear in the closed loop resultant dynamics, the linear sliding surface is applied. A corresponding diagonalized control input is proposed to satisfy the closed loop global exponential stability and the existence condition of the sliding mode on the linear sliding surface, which will be investigated in Theorem 1. Through a design example and simulation study, the usefulness of the proposed controller is verified.

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, A new time-varying sliding surface design using eigenvalue locus is proposed to achieve fast and robust in a class of high-order uncertain dynamic system. A moving sliding surface(MSS) was proposed earlier for the second-order variable structure control systems(VSCS). This methodology led to fast and robust control responses of the second-order VSCS. However, the moving algorithm of the MSS was too complicated to be employed the high-order VSCS. To resolve this problem, we propose a new moving algorithm that switching surface moves such that the eigenvalues of equivalent system in the sliding mode have a predetermined locus. Using the proposed surface fast and robust behaviors are accomplished. The problem of chattering can be eliminated by using a boundary layer of switching surface. The efficiency of proposed algorithm is illustrated by an application to four-order workbench.
