Given the increased significance of electric vehicles in recent years, this study aimed to develop a novel form of direct yaw-moment control (DYC) to enhance the driving stability of four-wheel independent drive (4WID) electric vehicles. Specifically, this study developed an innovative non-singular fast terminal sliding mode control (NFTSMC) method that integrates NFTSM and a fast-reaching control law. Moreover, this study employed a radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) to approximate both the entire system model and uncertain components, thereby reducing the computational load associated with a complex system model and augmenting the overall control performance. Using the aforementioned factors, the optimal additional yaw moment to ensure the lateral stability of a vehicle is determined. To generate the additional yaw moment, we introduce a real-time optimal torque distribution method based on the vertical load ratio. The stability of the proposed approach is comprehensively verified using the Lyapunov theory. Lastly, the validity of the proposed DYC system is confirmed by simulation tests involving step and sinusoidal inputs conducted using Matlab/Simulink and CarSim software. Compared to conventional sliding mode control (SMC) and NFTSMC methods, the proposed approach showed improvements in yaw rate tracking accuracy for all scenarios, along with a significant reduction in the chattering phenomenon in control torques.

Latency in flux observation has an adverse effect on the performance of observer-based field-oriented speed control for three-phase induction motor (IM). The reduction of the convergent rate of estimation errors could improve the performance of speed-controlled IM based on flux observers. The main contribution is to design a fast convergent flux observer, which provides bounded estimation error immediately after one instant of motor startup.

During the interaction process of a manipulator executing a grasping task, to ensure no damage to the object, accurate force and position control of the manipulator's end-effector must be concurrently implemented. To address the computationally intensive nature of current hybrid force/position control methods, a variable-parameter impedance control method for manipulators, utilizing a gradient descent method and Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN), is proposed. This method employs a position-based impedance control structure that integrates iterative learning control principles with a gradient descent method to dynamically adjust impedance parameters.

Stroke is a condition characterized by damage to the cerebral vasculature from various causes, resulting in focal or widespread brain tissue damage. Prior neuroimaging research has demonstrated that individuals with stroke present structural and functional brain abnormalities, evident through disruptions in motor, cognitive, and other vital functions. Nevertheless, there is a lack of studies on alterations in static and dynamic functional network connectivity in the brains of stroke patients.

This paper investigates an integrated model-control scheme for large-scale spacecraft, focusing on orbit-attitude-vibration dynamics subject to strong time-varying coupling characteristics. The proposed scheme aims to achieve cooperative modeling and control for orbit maintenance, attitude stabilization and vibration suppression simultaneously. An integrated dynamic model is established using the Absolute Nodal Coordinate Formulation and Lagrangian mechanics, where time-varying coupling terms are preserved to enhance model integrity, contrasting with the reduction and decoupling methods commonly adopted in existing literature.
