“…The Inverted-Pendulum is a nonlinear mechanical system which has been studied by many researchers since the system can be used to investigate the performances of different control approaches considered for the various systems that depict similar dynamical properties but have higher orders such as flexible joint robots, mobile robots and underwater vehicles. In order to control nonlinear mechanical systems, there are several control strategies in the literature such as passivity based control (Ortega and Garcia-Canseco, 2004; Romero et al, 2017), the backstepping control (Choukchou-Braham et al, 2011; Man and Lin, 2010; Rudra et al, 2014), adaptive control (Huang et al, 2015), sliding mode control (Wang et al, 2004), adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control (Kung et al, 2009).…”
