In this study, a fractional-order adaptive-sliding mode control (SMC) scheme is proposed to stabilise commensurate fractional-order polytopic non-linear differential inclusion systems containing sector and dead-zone nonlinearities in the control inputs and unknown bounded disturbances. The suggested control method is composed of fractional-order sliding surfaces, adaptive-SMC inputs and adaptation laws for unknown bounds of disturbances. The Lyapunov stability theorem is used to prove the stability of the closed-loop system. A practical system and two numerical examples are simulated to show the effectiveness and performance of the proposed control technique  

Fast finite time adaptive sliding mode control of a quadrotor in the presence of uncertainties and unbounded external disturbances is dealt in this paper. To this end, a fractional order sliding surface is first defined and then, an adaptive sliding mode controller is designed to guarantee finite time stability with fast convergence of quadrotor states to the desired trajectory. In this controller, it is assumed that the upper bound of the model uncertainties and external disturbances is a nonlinear function with unknown coefficients. These coefficients are estimated via stable adaptive laws. Finite time stability of the closed-loop system is analyzed using Lyapunov theorem. Simulation...
