Adaptive Nonlinear Sliding Mode Control of Mechanical Servo System With LuGre Friction Compensation

In this paper, the parameter identification and control problem are investigated for a mechanical servo system with LuGre friction. First of all, an intelligent glowworm swarm optimization (GSO) algorithm is developed to identify the friction parameters. Then, by using a finite-time parameter estimate law and nonlinear sliding mode technique, an adaptive nonlinear sliding mode control (NSMC) based on GSO is designed to speed up the parameter convergence and to decrease the overshoot and steady-state time in control process. Finally, comparative simulations are given to show that the proposed parameters identification technique and adaptive NSMC law are both effective with respect to fast convergence speed and high tracking accuracy.
