This paper is devoted to the stabilization of the angular velocity of a rigid body via variable structure based controllers. The system is supposed to have only two control torques and to be subject to external disturbances. A finite time convergence is obtained by switching between a first-order and a second-order sliding mode controllers. [S0022-0434(00)00304-X]
