Zero-Crossing Time Lower Bounds for the Homogeneous Super-Twisting Algorithm

Diego Gutiérrez-Oribio, Ioannis Stefanou

High-frequency switching and chattering are well-known problems in sliding-mode control. Although the super-twisting algorithm produces a continuous control input, the sliding vari…

Modular Sign Compensation for MIMO Systems with Unknown Control Direction: An Exact Nominal Recovery Approach

Diego Gutiérrez-Oribio, Ioannis Stefanou

This paper addresses stabilization of MIMO systems with uncertain time-varying diagonal input direction. We propose a modular switching sign-compensation layer acting as an outer w…

Passivity-based control of underactuated mechanical systems with Coulomb friction: Application to earthquake prevention

Diego Gutierrez-Oribio, Ioannis Stefanou, Franck Plestan

Passivity property gives a sense of energy balance. The classical definitions and theorems of passivity in dynamical systems require time invariance and locally Lipschitz functions…

Earthquake Control: An Emerging Application for Robust Control. Theory and Experimental Tests

Diego Gutiérrez-Oribio, Georgios Tzortzopoulos, Ioannis Stefanou +1

This paper addresses the possibility of using robust control theory for preventing earthquakes through fluid injections in the earth's crust. The designed robust controllers drive…
