Sliding mode control design using a generalized reduced-order fractional model for chemical processes

Abstract

This article presents a comprehensive study that evaluates the potential advantages of adopting a unified, systematic, and organized general fractional model within the Sliding Mode Control (SMC) design framework. The exploration extends to the model's applicability in a variety of disciplines. Although prior research has utilized SMC and fractional-order systems independently, no previous work has established a mathematical framework that integrates a generic fractional-order SMC model. The study addresses this gap and highlights potential implications for control design and applications in a variety of fields, particularly for chemical processes.
