            Abstract : 
In this note, global finite time stabilization is investigated for a class of nonlinear systems in p normal form with parametric uncertainties. To achieve finite-time stabilization, a constructive control design approach is proposed by following backstepping methodology, and an adaptive finite-time control law is obtained in the form of continuous time-invariant feedback.
