Abstract

Abstract This paper investigates fast finite‐time control of nonlinear dynamics using terminal sliding‐mode (TSM) scheme. Some new norms of fast TSM strategies are proposed, and a faster convergence rate is established in comparison with the conventional fast TSM. A novel concept of nonsingular fast TSM, which is able to avoid the possible singularity during the control phase, is adopted in the robust high‐precision control of uncertain nonlinear systems. Numerical simulation on a two‐link rigid robot manipulator demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
