"A Fixed Time Observer for Flux and Load in Induction Motors" XVI Congreso Latinoamericano de Control Automático, 14-17 de octubre de 2014.http://hdl.handle.net/11117/3323This paper presents a second order sliding mode observer for flux and load in induction motors. It is based on a block-wise representation of the motor model in alpha beta frame and second order sliding mode algorithms. The block structure provides a straightforward form to the application of uniform second order sliding mode algorithms, yielding to finite-time convergence with a predetermined settling time independent on initial conditions. The cases of single-phase, three-phase and linear induction motors are studied. Finally, numerical simulations show the efficiency and feasibility of the proposal.engState ObserversFixed Time StabilitySingle Phase Induction Motorinfo:eu-repo/semantics/conferencePaper
