Sliding-mode cascade controller of induction motor

The aims of this work are the design and application of the indirect rotor flux-oriented control (IRFOC) with a sliding-mode controller to pilot the working of the induction motor coupled the centrifugal pump. The stability analysis based on Lyapunov theory is also presented, to guarantee the closed loop stability. Some reliable simulation results are provided in this paper in order to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach.
