Abstract:

 The time-delay flexible joint space manipulator control problem is studied. A robust adaptive sliding-mode controller is designed to deal with the strong nonlinear characteristics, unmodeled dynamics, disturbance and time-delay of the space manipulators. Via the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and some convexification strategies, for example, the linear matrix inequalities and Schur complement, the asymptotic stability conditions for the sliding motion can be acquired. It is shown that the sliding surface can be reached in finite time. Finally, three simulation cases show that the designed controllers are feasible.
