hello,
i attached in the figure, the formula of the control law of the model free sliding mode control that i'll be using, when running my control algorithm in simulink, it gives me an algebraic loop error and this is very obvious cz 2 previous control input are demanded for the calculation of the current control input.. the question is, what do you suggest to solve such problem ? how the algorithm can know the values of the previous input at time t=0 ? should i define initial values or .. ?
