This paper considers the optimal control for hybrid systems whose trajectories transition between distinct subsystems when state-dependent constraints are satisfied. Though this class of systems is useful while modeling a variety of…
We investigate optimal control of dynamical systems which are affine, i.e., linear in control, but nonlinear in state. The control task is to enforce the system state to follow a prescribed desired trajectory as closely as possible, a task…
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 paper, we consider the problem of piecewise affine abstraction of nonlinear systems, i.e., the overapproximation of its nonlinear dynamics by a pair of piecewise affine functions that "includes" the dynamical characteristics of the…
We present necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for finite time optimal control problems for a class of hybrid systems described by linear complementarity models. Although these optimal control problems are difficult in general…
This article presents an identification methodology to capture general relationships, with application to piecewise nonlinear approximations of model predictive control for constrained (non)linear systems. The mathematical formulation…
In this paper, we propose an approach to controller synthesis for a class of constrained nonlinear systems. It is based on the use of a hybridization, that is a hybrid abstraction of the nonlinear dynamics. This abstraction is defined on a…
Nonlinear optimal control problems for trajectory planning with obstacle avoidance present several challenges. While general-purpose optimizers and dynamic programming methods struggle when adopted separately, their combination enabled by a…
This paper addresses the optimal control problem of finite-horizon discrete-time nonlinear systems under state and control constraints. A novel numerical algorithm based on optimal control theory is proposed to achieve superior…
We propose an approach to trajectory optimization for piecewise polynomial systems based on the recently proposed graphs of convex sets framework. We instantiate the framework with a convex relaxation of optimal control based on occupation…
In this paper we consider the problem of the optimal control of an ensemble of affine-control systems. After proving the well-posedness of the minimization problem under examination, we establish a $\Gamma$-convergence result that allows us…
We consider the problem of designing piecewise affine policies for two-stage adjustable robust linear optimization problems under right-hand side uncertainty. It is well known that a piecewise affine policy is optimal although the number of…
This paper focuses on optimal control problem for a class of discrete-time nonlinear systems. In practical applications, computation time is a crucial consideration when solving nonlinear optimal control problems, especially under real-time…
This paper investigates the control of nonlinear systems using a piecewise linear approximation framework. The proposed approach combines a PID controller with locally linearized models obtained by partitioning the nonlinear function into…
This paper presents a new model-based algorithm that computes predictive optimal controls on-line and in closed loop for traditionally challenging nonlinear systems. Examples demonstrate the same algorithm controlling hybrid impulsive,…
The note focuses on the differential geometric approach to the study of nonlinear systems that are affine in control. We first develop normal forms for nonlinear system affine in control. Based on these normal forms, we then address the…
Collisions are common in many dynamical systems with real applications. They can be formulated as hybrid dynamical systems with discontinuities automatically triggered when states transverse certain manifolds. We present an algorithm for…
A piecewise constant Mayer cost function is used to model optimal control problems in which the state space is partitioned into several regions, each having its own Mayer cost value. In such a context, the standard numerical methods used in…
Models involving hybrid systems are versatile in their application but difficult to optimize efficiently due to their combinatorial nature. This work presents a method to cope with hybrid optimal control problems which, in contrast to…
Optimal control for switch-based dynamical systems is a challenging problem in the process control literature. In this study, we model these systems as hybrid dynamical systems with finite number of unknown switching points and reformulate…
