The tracking problem of high-order nonlinear multi-agent systems (MAS) with uncertainty is solved by designing adaptive sliding mode control. During the tracking process, node failures are possible to occur, a new agent replaces the failed one. Firstly, a distributed nonsingular terminal sliding mod...
