This paper studies the attainable set at time T>0 for the control system y ˙ ( t ) = f ( y ( t ) , u ( t ) ) u ( t ) U showing that, under suitable assumptions on f, such a set satisfies a uniform interior sphere condition. The interior sphere property is then applied to recover a semiconcavity result for the value function of time optimal control problems with a general target, and to deduce C1,1-regularity for boundaries of attainable sets.
