Abstract:
In this article, we discuss fast finite-time consensus (FFTC) problems for uncertain nonlinear multiple mechanical systems with actuator faults and time-varying asymmetric output constraints. In order to guarantee the constraints are satisfied, an appropriate nonlinear mapping (NM) is employed to transform the original system with output constrains into an corresponding unconstrained one. Combining neural networks technology, graph theory, fast finite-time control theory, and backstepping technology, the actuator faults are considered to propose a distributed adaptive finite-time consensus (FTC) protocol, which can guarantee the position errors as well as the velocity errors reaching a region in finite time. Finally, an illustrative example is presented to support the obtained theoretical results.
