A special issue of International Journal of Power Electronics
We are aware that almost all power industrial products are controlled by either analog or digital controllers wherein some control algorithm will be employed. There are different control schemes whereby the sliding mode control scheme has proved very popular in the field of power converters, inverters, motor drives, generator drives, UPS, HVDC and robotics. Therefore, the purpose of this Special Issue is to present state-of-the-art solutions in the field of sliding mode controller modelling, simulation and analysis, verification and implementation techniques for power industrial applications.
Possible topics include but are not limited to, the following:
- Sliding mode controllers for power converters (hard switching, soft switching, resonant switching, neutral switching)
- Sliding mode controllers for voltage and current source inverters
- Sliding mode controllers for motor and generator drives
- Sliding mode controllers for electromagnetic linear and rotary actuators
- Sliding mode controllers for UPS and SMPS
- Sliding mode controllers for wind turbine, photo-voltaic and fuel-cell power conversion systems
- Sliding mode controllers for robotics and complex motion steering systems
- Sliding mode controllers for surface transport, electric traction and ships
- Sliding mode observers for fault detection and isolation and management of motors, generators, converters, inverters etc
- Sliding mode controllers for HVDC and FACTS
- Sliding mode controllers for lighting and induction heating
- Sliding mode controllers for welding and plasma cutting power supplies
