Robust Finite-time Terminal Sliding Mode Control for a Class of Nonlinear Uncertain Systems

This study investigates the robust terminal sliding mode (TSM) control for a class of nonlinear uncertain systems. A robust TSM control scheme is proposed using the nonsingular terminal sliding mode and super-twisting algorithm. The proposed method deals with the system uncertainties by smooth control input. Thus, the chattering of the traditional TSM controllers is avoided. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the new method.
