Abstract
Unknown disturbances and material properties affect the trajectory tracking of underwater soft clawing robots. A nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode predictive controller is proposed to eliminate these effects. To characterize hysteresis and creep in dielectric elastomer materials, a dynamic model incorporating an improved dead-zone operator algorithm is constructed. Meanwhile, a nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode predictive controller that combines the Lie derivative function and sliding mode controller surface is developed to improve the accuracy and robustness of trajectory tracking. Additionally, the dynamic response and convergence speed of the proposed control system are improved by using an adaptive nonlinear disturbance observer to estimate the disturbance and uncertainty terms. Finally, the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed control method are verified by numerical simulations and experiments.
