Abstract

In this study, a new terminal sliding mode control approach is developed for robotic manipulators based on finite-time stability theory and differential inequality principle. The corresponding stability analysis is presented to lay a foundation for theoretical understanding to the underlying design issue as well as safe operation for real system. An illustrative example of a two-link rigid robotic manipulator is presented to validate effectiveness of the proposed approach.
