The proposed control strategy proves to be able to robustly steer the system state to zero in a finite time, fulfilling the state constraints in spite of the uncertainties, provided that the initial state is inside a given region. The effectiveness of the proposal is then tested on a simulation example. %Z American Control Conference Marriott Waterfront, Baltimore, MD, USA June 30-July 02, 2010
