Delay-independent sliding mode control for a class of quasi-linear parabolic distributed parameter systems with time-varying delay

摘要

The sliding mode control (SMC) problem for a class of quasi-linear parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) systems with time-varying delay is considered. Firstly, the stability problem for the reduced order sliding dynamical equations is investigated and a sufficient condition for the stability of sliding motion is given. Then the SMC law, which forces the system state from any initial state to reach the sliding manifold within finite time, is designed. At last a simulation example is presented to illustrate effectiveness of the proposed method.
