Abstract: In this paper, we revise an adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control algorithm applied to a robotic manipulator. Lyapunov stability of the overall system for the revised algorithm is proven. Simulation of a two degree of freedom manipulator is used to demonstrate the method. A discussion of the proof of Lyapunov stability for different algorithms is presented.

Keywords: adaptive control; sliding mode control; fuzzy control; robotic manipulators; robot control; simulation.
