Abstract:
In this research, a novel adaptive interval type-2 fuzzy fractional-order backstepping sliding mode control (AIT2FFOBSMC) method is presented for some classes of nonlinear fully-actuated and under-actuated mechanical systems with uncertainty. The AIT2FFOBSMC method exploits the advantages of backstepping and sliding mode methods to improve the performance of closed-loop control systems by lowering the tracking error and increasing robustness. To mitigate chattering and the tracking error, a fractional sliding surface is designed. In addition to the fractional sliding surface, an adaptive interval type-2 fuzzy compensator is used to estimate the uncertainty and perturbation of the nonlinear system in order to further reduce chattering caused by switching term as well as to enhance the perturbation rejection. In order to achieve an optimal performance, the multi-tracker optimization algorithm (MTOA) is used. Finally, a number of simulations and experimental tests are carried out to examine the performance of the AIT2FFOBSMC method.

Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
