Course Goals / Objectives:
Demonstrate the beneficial properties of sliding mode control which enables separation of the overall system motion into independent partial components of lower dimensions and low sensitivity to plant parameter variations and disturbances
Sliding mode control studies span heterogeneous problems (mathematical methods, design principles, applications). Major attention will be paid to sliding mode control design for finite-dimensional systems, governed by ordinary differential equations
The wide range of applications are demonstrated to show the advantages of the sliding mode control methodology (e.g. for electric motors, manipulators, mobile robots)
Overcome implementation difficulties, special attention will be paid to suppression of chattering caused by unmodeled dynamics
