Conference Proceeding
La Spada, L., Bilotti, F., & Vegni, L. (2011)
Metamaterial-based design of biological sensors operating at THz frequencies
In this contribution, we present an omega-shaped electromagnetic resonator, which is of potential interest for THz biosensors. A new analytical model for such an inclusion-typ...

Robust chattering-free (higher order) sliding mode control for a vector-controlled induction machine

Conference Proceeding
Goh, K., Dunnigan, M., & Williams, B. (2005)
Robust chattering-free (higher order) sliding mode control for a vector-controlled induction machine. In 2004 5th Asian Control Conference (IEEE Cat. No.04EX904)
The chattering behaviour that is inherent in standard sliding mode control is often an obstacle for practical application if neglected. In this paper, special attention is giv...

Sliding mode position control of a vector-controlled induction machine with nonlinear load dynamics

Conference Proceeding
Goh, K., Dunnigan, M., & Williams, B. (2004)
Sliding mode position control of a vector-controlled induction machine with nonlinear load dynamics. In Second International Conference on Power Electronics, Machines and Drives (PEMD 2004)https://doi.org/10.1049/cp%3A20040264
In this paper, a solution to the position control problem for a vector controlled induction machine in the presence of nonlinear load friction, is proposed. A sliding mode (SM...
