An impedance-based control scheme is introduced for cooperative manipulators grasping a rigid load. The position and orientation of the load are to be maintained close to a desired trajectory, trading off tracking accuracy by low energy…
The objective of this note is to share some reflections of the authors regarding the use of sliding mode designs in control systems. We believe the abundant, and ever increasing, appearance of this kind of works on our scientific…
This paper studies the super-twisting algorithm (STA) for adaptive sliding mode design. The proposed method tunes the two gains of STA on line simultaneously such that a second order sliding mode can take place with small rectifying gains.…
This work is concerned with the time optimal control problem for evolution equations in Hilbert spaces. The attention is focused on the maximum principle for the time optimal controllers having the dimension smaller that of the state…
This paper concerns the numerical procedure for solving hybrid optimal control problems with sliding modes. A sliding mode is coped with differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) and that guarantees accurate tracking of the sliding motion…
This paper considers demand side management in smart power grid systems containing significant numbers of thermostatically controlled loads such as air conditioning systems, heat pumps, etc. Recent studies have shown that the overall power…
This paper concerns the numerical procedure for solving hybrid optimal control problems with sliding modes. The proposed procedure has several features which distinguishes it from the other procedures for the problem. First of all a sliding…
Model order reduction is a technique that is used to construct low-order approximations of large-scale dynamical systems. In this paper, we investigate a balancing based model order reduction method for dynamical systems with a linear…
Ultrasonic motors (USMs) are commonly used in aerospace, robotics, and medical devices, where fast and precise motion is needed. Remarkably, sliding mode controller (SMC) is an effective controller to achieve precision motion control of the…

This paper investigates the exact controllability problem for multi-dimensional stochastic first-order symmetric hyperbolic systems with control inputs acting in two distinct ways: an internal control applied to the diffusion term and a…
Compliance is a strong requirement for human-robot interactions. Soft-robots provide an opportunity to cover the lack of compliance in conventional actuation mechanisms, however, the control of them is very challenging given their intrinsic…
We propose a dual mode extremum seeking control design technique that achieves real-time optimization of an unknown measured cost function in a prescribed time. The controller is shown to achieve semi-global practical stability of the…
The rapid development and expansion of the EV market marked by the advent of third decade of the 21st century has improved the possibility of a sustainable automotive future. The present EV drivetrain run by BLDC motor has become…
High speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) has been successfully applied in commercial systems and improves user experience significantly. However, it incurs substantial energy consumption. In this paper, we address this issue by proposing a…
Control of underactuated dynamical systems has been studied for decades in robotics, and is now emerging in other fields such as neuroscience. Most of the advances have been in model based control theory, which has limitations when the…
For a class of uncertain systems, a non-overshooting sliding mode control is presented to make them globally exponentially stable and without overshoot. Even when the unknown stochastic disturbance exists, and the time-variant reference…
Feedback control algorithms traditionally rely on periodic execution on digital platforms. While this simplifies design and analysis, it often leads to inefficient resource usage (e.g., CPU, network bandwidth) in embedded control and shared…
This paper focuses on finding approximate solutions to stochastic optimal control problems with control domains being not necessarily convex, where the state trajectory is subject to controlled stochastic differential equations. The…
