In this paper, a class of interconnected systems is considered, where the nominal isolated systems are fully nonlinear. A robust decentralised sliding mode control based on static state feedback is developed. By local coordinate transformation and feedback linearization, the interconnected system is transformed to a new regular form. A composite sliding surface which is a function of the system state variables is proposed and the stability of the corresponding sliding mode dynamics is analysed. A new reachability condition is proposed and a robust decentralised sliding mode control is then designed to drive the system states to the sliding surface in finite time and maintain a sliding motion thereafter. Both uncertainties and interconnections are allowed to be unmatched and are assumed to be bounded by nonlinear functions. The bounds on the uncertainties and interconnections have more general forms when compared with existing work. A MATLAB simulation example is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper considers a class of time delay systems with delayed states and nonlinear uncertainties using sliding mode techniques. In order to improve robustness, matched and mismatched disturbances are considered and assumed to be nonlinear functions of system states and delayed states. A sliding function is designed and a set of sufficient conditions is derived to guarantee the stability of the corresponding sliding motion by using Lyapunov-Razumikhin approach which allows large time varying delay with fast changing rate. A delay dependent sliding mode control is synthesized to drive the system to the sliding surface in finite time and maintain a sliding motion thereafter. Effectiveness of the proposed method is tested via a case study on a continuous stirred tank reactor system.
