Abstract: An adaptive sliding mode control design method is proposed for discrete nonlinear systems where explicit knowledge of the system dynamics is not available. Three-layer feedforward neural networks ...

Abstract: This paper sets forth general conditions on the existence, boundedness, and proper gains of a control for stabilizing a nonlinear plant state trajectory to a sliding manifold denoted by S ...

Abstract: This paper sets forth two approaches for a combined controller-observer design procedure for a class of uncertain time delay systems. The first procedure uses a delay-independent LMI (linear ...
