Turnpike properties have been established long time ago in finite-dimensional optimal control problems arising in econometry. They refer to the fact that, under quite general assumptions, the optimal solutions of a given optimal control…
The DPG method with optimal test functions for solving linear quadratic optimal control problems with control constraints is studied. We prove existence of a unique optimal solution of the nonlinear discrete problem and characterize it…
In the context of optimal control, we consider the inverse problem of Lagrangian identification given system dynamics and optimal trajectories. Many of its theoretical and practical aspects are still open. Potential applications are very…
Continuum robotic grasping, inspired by biological appendages such as octopus arms and elephant trunks, provides a versatile and adaptive approach to object manipulation. Unlike conventional rigid-body grasping, continuum robots leverage…
We introduce a new method, stepwise method for solving optimal con- trol problems. Our first motivation for new approach emanate from limi- tations on continuous time control functions in PMP. Practically in most of the real world models,…
We present an efficient transcription method for highly oscillatory optimal control problems. For these problems, the optimal state trajectory consists of fast oscillations that change slowly over the time horizon. Out of a large number of…
In this study, we focus on the numerical solution method for the optimal control problem with equilibrium constraints (OCPEC).It is extremely challenging to solve OCPEC owing to the absence of constraint regularity and strictly feasible…
The turnpike phenomenon stipulates that the solution of an optimal control problem in large time, remains essentially close to a steady-state of the dynamics, itself being the optimal solution of an associated static optimal control…
This work is devoted to generating optimal guidance commands in real time for attitude-constrained solar sailcrafts in coplanar circular-to-circular interplanetary transfers. Firstly, a nonlinear optimal control problem is established, and…
An adaptive direct collocation method is developed for solving optimal control problems constrained by parabolic partial differential equations. The partial differential equation is first reformulated in a variational setting, where the…
This paper studies optimal trajectory-tracking for driftless, x-flat nonlinear systems with three states and two inputs. The tracking problem is formulated in Bolza form with a quadratic cost of the tracking error and its derivative.…
This paper details a methodology to transcribe an optimal control problem into a nonlinear program for generation of the trajectories that optimize a given functional by approximating only the highest order derivatives of a given system's…
This paper introduces a framework for solving time-autonomous nonlinear infinite horizon optimal control problems, under the assumption that all minimizers satisfy Pontryagin's necessary optimality conditions. In detail, we use methods from…
Optimal Control Theory is a powerful mathematical tool, which has known a rapid development since the 1950s, mainly for engineering applications. More recently, it has become a widely used method to improve process performance in quantum…
Solutions to optimal control problems can be discontinuous, even if all the functionals defining the problem are smooth. This can cause difficulties when numerically computing solutions to these problems. While conventional numerical…
We study the problem of state transition on a finite time interval with minimal energy supply for linear port-Hamiltonian systems. While the cost functional of minimal energy supply is intrinsic to the port-Hamiltonian structure, the…
In this work, solution of the finite horizon hybrid optimal control problem as the central element of the receding horizon optimal control (model predictive control) is investigated based on the indirect approach. The response of a hybrid…
In this article, two methods for solving mean-field type optimal control problems are proposed and investigated. The two methods are iterative methods: at each iteration, a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation is solved, for a terminal…
In this paper, we consider a class of stochastic control problems for stochastic differential equations with random coefficients. The control domain need not to be convex but the control process is not allowed to enter in diffusion term.…
The minimum-time control problem consists in finding a control policy that will drive a given dynamic system from a given initial state to a given target state (or a set of states) as quickly as possible. This is a well-known challenging…
