Non-Singular Finite Time Tracking Control Approach Based on Disturbance Observers for Perturbed Quadrotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.

In this paper, a disturbance observer based on the non-singular terminal sliding mode control method was presented for the quadrotor in the presence of wind perturbation. First, the position and attitude dynamical equation of the quadrotor was introduced in the existence of windy perturbation. It was difficult to exactly determine the upper bound of the perturbations in the practical systems such as robot manipulators and quadrotor UAVs.

Non-Singleton Type-3 Fuzzy Approach for Flowmeter Fault Detection: Experimental Study in a Gas Industry.

The main contribution of this paper is to develop a new flowmeter fault detection approach based on optimized non-singleton type-3 (NT3) fuzzy logic systems (FLSs). The introduced method is implemented on an experimental gas industry plant. The system is modeled by NT3FLSs, and the faults are detected by comparison of measured end estimated signals.
