Fuzzy Adaptive Prescribed Performance Fault-Tolerant Control for HFVs with Fixed-Time Convergence Guarantee by Zehong Dong, Yinghui Li, Maolong Lv, Zilong Zhao, Binbin Pei

“…Different from the most existing PPC approaches where the initial conditions of tracking errors are required to be known, the newly proposed prescribed performance function (PPF) can relax such restrictions through choosing properly small initial values of PPF. Fuzzy logic systems (FLSs) are employed to handle unknown dynamics, and minimal learning parameter (MLP) technique is incorporated into the design for the purpose of alleviating computation burden. …”
