Observer-based output feedback control of a PEM fuel cell system by high-order sliding mode technique
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper deals with an high-order sliding-mode approach to the observer-based output feedback control of a PEM fuel cell system comprising a compressor, a supply manifold, the fuel-cell stack and the return manifold. The suggested scheme assumes th... Read More about Observer-based output feedback control of a PEM fuel cell system by high-order sliding mode technique.

Prolong the stack life of PEM fuel cell system via higher order sliding mode control
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Fuel cells are electrochemical generators where produce electrical energy from chemical reactants. It is why these are good candidates to provide clean energy generation. This paper presents a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) dynamic model of polymer... Read More about Prolong the stack life of PEM fuel cell system via higher order sliding mode control.

Chattering analysis of second order sliding mode algorithms for linear plants with disturbance
Presentation / Conference Contribution

An analysis of second-order sliding-mode algorithms, specially of super-twisting and twisting as a filter algorithm is performed in frequency domain with the use of the describing function method, and is shown that periodic motion happens and the par...
