In addition, sensor faults in the form of unknown power drifts are also considered in this work. To compensate the impact of multiple power drift faults, a novel controller is established by introducing new auxiliary signals. The radial basis function neural networks (RBFNNs) are employed to resolve some uncertain functions and reduce the computational complexity. By combining the backstepping approach and barrier Lyapunov functions, a new adaptive FTC algorithm is developed.

Based on these two essential topics, this manuscript proposes a new observer-based finite-time scheme that allows controlling second-order systems affected by matched disturbances. The proposed methodology enables the perturbed system to follow a given reference signal in a finite time. In the new proposal, the control signal is split into three parts. In the first part, an observer estimates and compensates for various endogenous or exogenous disturbances. Then, the system error dynamics are transformed into a decoupled system with bounded disturbances through the second control part. Finally, a finite-time controller is designed to accomplish finite-time convergence of the error signal. A formal mathematical development utilizing the Lyapunov theory demonstrates the effectiveness of the new control scheme. Also, the novel controller is compared against two existing observer-based finite-time controllers, and the remarkable performance of the latest proposal and its low power demands are demonstrated via numerical analysis.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":14660,"journal":{"name":"ISA transactions","volume":"161 ","pages":"Pages 97-108"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143904488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With this aim, this paper presents a framework for formulating local stabilization criteria built on fuzzy Lyapunov functions, establishing criteria for defining an attraction region within an invariant ellipsoidal set and incorporating the occurrence of energy-constrained disturbances into the local control problem. In addition, the mismatch problem encountered in designing an event-triggered fuzzy controller is resolved by integrating a congruent transformation matrix that relies on mismatched fuzzy basis functions while preserving the dependence of the Lyapunov function on the original premise functions. Furthermore, to simultaneously cope with complex and diverse system parameter constraints, a systematic and less conservative method is proposed, which involves centralizing nonhomogeneous transition probabilities (TPs), transforming mismatched fuzzy basis functions into fuzzy basis function errors, and employing relaxation techniques.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":14660,"journal":{"name":"ISA transactions","volume":"161 ","pages":"Pages 166-177"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143904420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed methodology combines a systematic analytical procedure with a software-based implementation, enabling proper performance under varying system types, orders, and parameter sets. Indeed, the introduced tuning approach enables the simultaneous adjustment of all control system parameters, accommodating the designer’s preferences regarding the number of parameters to be tuned and the control objectives. Its effectiveness and efficiency are demonstrated through extensive simulations and real-time experiments in aerospace, robotics, and electric systems. Results indicate that this approach covers significant system variations without compromising stability or performance, distinguishing it from the conventional tuning methods. These outcomes offer new insights into the importance of simultaneously retuning control system parameters due to technical and economic issues.
