In this paper is proposed a control structure for a class of mechanical systems; this structure consists of a continuous controller based on nonsingular terminal sliding mode control plus uncertainty and disturbance estimator. Closed-loop stability is proved by designing an adequate sliding surface and showing the existence of sliding modes by the fulfillment of the reaching law. A controllers comparison using the nonsingular terminal sliding mode, first-order sliding mode, PID, and the proposed control structure is carried out through numerical simulations of a pendulum system, where the l2 index is used to measure the performance of the controllers. Moreover, real-time experiments are performed in a mechanical system with a pneumatic actuator. The theoretical, numerical, and experimental results validate the feasibility, performance, and robustness of the proposed control structure. |
