Abstract
Sliding-mode control systems offer an effective and mathematically exciting approach to the robust control of uncertain, often nonlinear, dynamical systems which are subject to external disturbances. This article outlines the fundamental properties of the design philosophy. The development of a tracking control scheme for a multivariable thermal problem including the results of plant trials is then described and discussed.<>
