Adaptive type-2 neural fuzzy sliding mode control of a class of nonlinear systems

The objective of this study is to design an optimal control scheme for the control of a class of nonlinear flexible multi-body systems with extremely coupled dynamics and infinite dimensions. The assumed mode method (AMM) acquires a finite-dimensional model, but there are uncertainties in the truncated model that make the system a difficult control problem. The proposed control scheme is a hybrid of the sliding mode control (SMC) and the type-2...
