The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

© The Author(s) 2025.This paper presents a comprehensive study on predefined-time sliding mode control applied to quadrotor systems with variable exponent coefficients. The main goal is to achieve efficient control with predefined-time convergence to the desired target. Novel predefined-time sliding mode control and predefined-time neural networks sliding model control algorithms are developed to adapt to the dynamics of variable coefficients and ensure system stability. The stability analysis confirms their capability to achieve predefined-time convergence. Extensive numerical simulations on diverse nonlinear systems validate the superiority of the proposed approach over conventional sliding mode control and neural networks control.
