Design Fuzzy Input-Based Adaptive Sliding Mode Control for Vessel Lift-Feedback Fin Stabilizers with Shock and Vibration of Waves

Abstract EN

An adaptive sliding mode controller based on fuzzy input design is presented, in order to reduce the roll motion of surface vessel fin stabilizers with shock and vibration of waves.

The nonlinearities and uncertainties of the system including feedback errors and disturbance induced by waves are analyzed.

And the lift-feedback system is proposed, which improves the shortage of conventional fin angle-feedback.

Then the fuzzy input-based adaptive sliding mode control is designed for the system.

In the controller design, the Lyapunov function is adopted to guarantee the system stability.

Finally, experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of the controller designed using fuzzy input, when compared to the PID controller used in practical engineering.
