Dynamic second-order sliding mode control of the hovercraft vessel

A suitable combination of the differential flatness property and the second-order sliding mode controller design technique is proposed for the specification of a robust dynamic feedback multivariable controller accomplishing prescribed trajectory tracking tasks for the earth coordinate position variables of a hovercraft vessel model.
