Control for the sine-gordon equation

Madalina Petcu, Roger Temam (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this article we apply the optimal and the robust control theory to the sine-Gordon equation. In our case the control is given by the boundary conditions and we work in a finite time horizon. We present at the beginning the optimal control problem and we derive a necessary condition of optimality and we continue by formulating a robust control problem for which existence and uniqueness of solutions are derived.

Some Applications of Optimal Control Theory of Distributed Systems

Alfredo Bermudez (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this paper we present some applications of the J.-L. Lions' optimal control theory to real life problems in engineering and environmental sciences. More precisely, we deal with the following three problems: sterilization of canned foods, optimal management of waste-water treatment plants and noise control

Optimal feedback control proportional to the system state can be found for non-causal descriptor systems

Galina Kurina (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Optimal feedback control depending only on the system state is constructed for a control problem by the non-causal descriptor system for which optimal feedback control depending on state derivatives was considered in the paper (Meuller, 1998). To this end, a non-symmetric solution of the algebraic operator Riccati equation is used.

A simple solution to the finite-horizon LQ problem with zero terminal state

Lorenzo Ntogramatzidis (2003)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

This short paper deals with the classical finite-horizon linear-quadratic regulator problem with the terminal state constrained to be zero, for both continuous and discrete-time systems. Closed-form expressions for the optimal state and costate trajectories of the Hamiltonian system, as well as the corresponding control law, are derived through the solutions of two infinite- horizon LQ problems, thus avoiding the use of the Riccati differential equation. The computation of the optimal...

How humans fly

Alain Ajami, Jean-Paul Gauthier, Thibault Maillot, Ulysse Serres (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

This paper is devoted to the general problem of reconstructing the cost from the observation of trajectories, in a problem of optimal control. It is motivated by the following applied problem, concerning HALE drones: one would like them to decide by themselves for their trajectories, and to behave at least as a good human pilot. This applied question is very similar to the problem of determining what is minimized in human locomotion. These starting points are the reasons for the particular...
