Nonlinear Backstepping Control Design for Coupled Nonlinear Systems under External Disturbances

Complexity, 2019
A nonlinear backstepping control is proposed for the coupled normal form of nonlinear systems. The proposed method is designed by combining the sliding-mode control and backstepping control with a disturbance observer (DOB).

Characterization of Defect Distribution in an Additively Manufactured AlSi10Mg as a Function of Processing Parameters and Correlations with Extreme Value Statistics

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Predicting extreme defects in additive manufacturing remains a key challenge limiting its structural reliability. This study proposes a statistical framework that integrates Extreme Value Theory with advanced process indicators to explore defect–process relationships and improve the estimation of critical defect sizes. The approach provides a basis for

An adaptive approximation‐free control for leader‐follower tracking of multi‐agent systems with unknown nonlinearity and disturbance

IET Control Theory & Applications
Due to variable and complex work environments, nonlinearities, uncertainty and disturbances are inevitable in multi‐agent systems. Approximation‐free control can address these issues without involving approximators, such as fuzzy logic systems and neural

Risk‐averse perimeter control for alleviating the congestion of an urban traffic network system with uncertainties

IET Intelligent Transport Systems
The perimeter control method is an effective way to alleviate traffic congestion that is based on Macroscopic Fundamental Diagrams (MFDs). However, the strategy may lead to congestion when it ignores the uncertainty of MFDs. To address this problem, this
