In Diabetes Mellitus, the pancreas remains incapable of insulin administration that leads to hyperglycaemia, an escalated glycaemic concentration, which may stimulate many complications. To circumvent this situation, a closed-loop control strategy is much needed for the exogenous insulin infusion in diabetic patients. This closed-loop structure is often termed as an artificial pancreas that is generally established by the employment of different feedback control strategies. In this work, the authors have proposed an arbitrary-order sliding mode control approach for development of the said mechanism. The term, arbitrary, is exercised in the sense of its applicability to any n-order controllable canonical system. The proposed control algorithm affirms the finite-time effective stabilisation of the glucose-insulin regulatory system, at the desired level, with the alleviation of sharp fluctuations. The novelty of this work lies in the sliding manifold that incorporates indirect non-linear terms. In addition, the necessary discontinuous terms are filtered-out once before its employment to the plant, i.e. diabetic patient. The robustness, in the presence of external disturbances, i.e. meal intake is confirmed via rigorous mathematical stability analysis. In addition, the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is ascertained by comparing the results with the standard literature.

基于任意阶滑模的鲁棒控制算法，用于开发人工胰腺机制。

在糖尿病患者中，胰腺仍然无法进行胰岛素治疗，导致高血糖症（血糖浓度升高），可能会引发许多并发症。为了避免这种情况，对于糖尿病患者的外源性胰岛素输注非常需要一种闭环控制策略。这种闭环结构通常被称为人造胰腺，通常是通过采用不同的反馈控制策略来建立的。在这项工作中，作者提出了一种用于该机构开发的任意阶滑模控制方法。术语“任意”是在其适用于任何n阶可控规范系统的意义上行使的。提出的控制算法肯定了葡萄糖-胰岛素调节系统的有限时间有效稳定性，在所需的水平上，并减轻了剧烈的波动。这项工作的新颖性在于它包含了间接非线性项的滑动歧管。此外，必要的不连续项在使用到植物（即糖尿病患者）之前就被过滤掉了一次。在存在外部干扰（即进餐）的情况下，其鲁棒性通过严格的数学稳定性分析得到确认。此外，通过将结果与标准文献进行比较，可以确定所提出的控制策略的有效性。在存在外部干扰的情况下，即通过严格的数学稳定性分析确定进餐量。此外，通过将结果与标准文献进行比较，可以确定所提出的控制策略的有效性。在存在外部干扰的情况下，即通过严格的数学稳定性分析确定进餐量。此外，通过将结果与标准文献进行比较，可以确定所提出的控制策略的有效性。
