Adaptive Sliding Mode Control for an Interior Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Motor

Abstract: An adaptive sliding controller will be proposed for the control of an interior permanent-magnet (IPM) synchronous motor-drive. A backstepping-like design is used to deal with the mismatched-uncertainties problem and the function approximation method is employed to transform the uncertainties into finite combinations of orthonormal basis functions. Adaptive laws are derived based on the Lyapunov-like design.

Brief Biography of the Speaker:
Arash Kiyoumarsi was born in Shahr-e-Kord, Iran, on September 11th, in the year 1972. He received B.Sc. (with honors) from Petruliom University of Technology (PUT), Iran, in electronic engineering in 1995 and M.Sc. from Isfahan University of Technology (IUT), Iran, in electrical power engineering in 1998. He received Ph.D. degree from the same university in electrical power engineering in 2004. In March 2005 he jointed the faculty of University of Isfahan, Department of Electrical Engineering as an assistant professor. He was a Post-Doc. research fellow of the Alexander von Humboldt foundation at the Institute of Electrical Machines, Technical University of Berlin from February to October 2006 and July to August 2007. His research interests have included application of finite element analysis in electromagnetics, interior permanent-magnet synchronous motor drives, shape design optimization, chaos and applied non-linear control and power system harmonics and unbalances.
