Abstract

Robotic manipulators have been extensively used in the area of industry, agriculture, and medicine. Parameter uncertainties and external complex disturbances both bring challenges in achieving finite-time high precision control of robotic manipulators. This study addresses the finite-time non-singular robust control problem of robotic manipulators with parameter variations and external complex disturbances. To enable the tracking error of robotic manipulator system with uncertainties to converge within finite time, a novel finite-time non-singular robust control (NFNRC) approach is proposed. To make the tracking error of robotic manipulator system have faster convergence rate, we design a new nonlinear term in the robust control function. With Lyapunov stability theorem, the finite-time stability of the robotic manipulator system is ensured. Performance comparisons with non-singular terminal sliding mode control (NTSM) and sliding mode control (SMC) are studied on a nonlinear robotic manipulator system. The results validate the efficacy of the designed robotic manipulator control scheme.
