Supercavitating vehicles can achieve very high speed but also pose technical challenges in system stability, maneuvering, and control. Compared to a fully-wetted vehicle for which substantial lift is generated due to vortex shedding off the hull, a supercavitating vehicle is enveloped by gas surface (cavity) and thus the lift is provided by control surface deflections of the cavitator and fins, as...
The following concepts are discussed: automatic control; nonlinear systems; nonlinear control applications; sliding mode control; nonlinear control design; robotics and synchronisation; optimal control; solar cells; biomedical engineering; communications systems; computer science and computer engineering; mechatronics; solid state materials, electron devices and integrated circuits
This paper deals with basic concepts, mathematics, and design aspects of variable structure controller based on sliding mode as a principle operation approach. After reviewing the operation of the plant, a variable-structure system (VSS) based scheme is formulated to control the outflow rate. The scheme is then designed and tested by Simulink Toolbox Ver. 3.0 of Matlab Ver. 6P5. Simulations are presented...
