Summary: This paper addresses the problem of fuzzy overhead crane system modelling and finite-time stability/boundedness using sliding mode control method. The fuzzy technique is employed to linearize the system and a fuzzy model with appropriate membership functions is established. The sliding mode control method is utilized to stabilize the system and handle external disturbances. Finite-time stability/boundedness is introduced to achieve system stability within a specified finite time.

Summary: This paper proposes a novel positioning and anti-swing controller based on fuzzy sliding mode for an overhead crane. The trolley displacement and load swing angle are integrated into the same sliding mode surface to deal with the underactuated characteristics of the overhead crane. The introduced fuzzy rules adjust the control quantity to ensure the system state remains on this surface, improving the control system's robustness to parameter changes and external disturbances.

Summary: The remarkable features of hybrid SMC assisted with fuzzy systems supplying parameters of the controller have led to significant success of these control approaches, especially in the control of multi-input and multi-output nonlinear systems. The development of type-1 fuzzy systems to type-2 fuzzy systems has improved the performance of fuzzy systems due to the ability to model uncertainties in the expression of expert knowledge. The paper proposes a basic approach of designing and implementing interval type-2 fuzzy sliding mode control for improved performance.

Summary: In order to improve the speed control performance of a three-phase induction motor controlled by the vector control strategy, a new design of a hybrid controller (HC) based on the supertwisting algorithm (STA) and fuzzy approach is proposed. The HC includes a fuzzy logic control approach to online self-tune the control gains and a supertwisting sliding mode load disturbance observer to estimate the load torque disturbances. The proposed scheme is validated to be superior to advanced and traditional controllers in simulation and experimental studies.

Summary: This paper addresses the design of a fixed-time controller for second-order sliding mode dynamics with asymmetric output constraints. By constructing a barrier Lyapunov function and adding a power integrator, a fixed-time SOSM controller is developed to handle the asymmetric output constraint issue, ensuring the sliding variable converges to the origin within a fixed time and the system output never violates the asymmetric constrained area boundary. Two examples are provided to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed scheme.

Summary: To improve the robustness of overhead crane controllers and enable a smooth startup, an adaptive time-varying sliding mode controller optimized via an improved honey badger algorithm (IHBA-ATSMC) is proposed. Unlike conventional methods, the ATSMC ensures a smooth increase in control force for a smooth start without requiring precise system information. The improved honey Badger algorithm is used to obtain controller parameters with good performance, achieving parameter optimization in limited time. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate the outstanding performance of IHBA-ATSMC in anti-swing positioning, smooth startup, robustness enhancement, and parameter tuning.
