About
Zohair Fazilati is a control systems researcher whose work focuses on advanced nonlinear control strategies for robotic manipulators and mobile systems. His primary research areas include sliding mode control, finite-time control, and state-dependent Riccati equation (SDRE) techniques. Fazilati’s major contributions center on developing non-singular terminal sliding mode (NTSM) controllers that address critical challenges in robotic systems, such as singularity issues and robustness against uncertainties and external disturbances. His 2017 paper on NTSM control for wheeled mobile manipulators (9 citations) proposed an innovative indirect sliding surface design that simultaneously controls both the mobile base and its mounted arm. In his 2018 work (7 citations), he demonstrated the superiority of finite-time SDRE and NTSM controllers for n-DOF manipulators, providing rigorous analysis for time-varying systems with parameter uncertainties. While his citation counts reflect an emerging career, Fazilati’s work represents meaningful advances in making sliding mode control more practical for real-world robotic applications, particularly in scenarios requiring precise, robust, and singularity-free trajectory tracking.
