Some results for an optimal control problem with a semilinear state equation

Fausto Gozzi (1988)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti

Similarity:

We consider a quadratic control problem with a semilinear state equation depending on a small parameter $\epsilon$ . We show that the optimal control is a regular function of such parameter.

Stability and sensitivity analysis for optimal control problems with control-state constraints

Kazimierz Malanowski

Similarity:

A family of parameter dependent optimal control problems ${(O)}_{h}$ with smooth data for nonlinear ODEs is considered. The problems are subject to pointwise mixed control-state constraints. It is assumed that, for a reference value h₀ of the parameter, a solution of ${(O)}_{h ₀}$ exists. It is shown that if (i) independence, controllability and coercivity conditions are satisfied at the reference solution, then (ii) for each h from a neighborhood of h₀, a locally unique solution to ${(O)}_{h}$ and the associated Lagrange...

Synthesis of optimal control for nonlinear third order systems

Wiesław Szwiec

Similarity:

The paper is devoted to a certain problem in the theory of synthesis of optimal control. The fundamental results of research in the synthesis of optimal control for second order systems are given in [1], [2], [5], [10]. In particular, in [2] and [5] some specific nonlinear systems are investigated, namely the systems related with the differential equations of the forms̈ + F(s,ṡ) = u or s̈ + F(s,ṡ,u) = 0where u is a control parameter in the interval [—1,1]. Some results concerning third...

Switching control

Enrique Zuazua (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We analyze the problem of switching controls for control systems endowed with different actuators. The goal is to control the dynamics of the system by switching from an actuator to the other in a systematic way so that, in each instant of time, only one actuator is active. We first address a finite-dimensional model and show that, under suitable rank conditions, switching control strategies exist and can be built in a systematic way. To do this we introduce a new variational principle...

Limiting average cost control problems in a class of discrete-time stochastic systems

Nadine Hilgert, Onesimo Hernández-Lerma (2001)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider a class of $ℝ^{d}$ -valued stochastic control systems, with possibly unbounded costs. The systems evolve according to a discrete-time equation $x_{t + 1} = G ₙ (x_{t}, a_{t}) + ξ_{t}$ (t = 0,1,... ), for each fixed n = 0,1,..., where the $ξ_{t}$ are i.i.d. random vectors, and the Gₙ are given functions converging pointwise to some function $G_{\infty}$ as n → ∞. Under suitable hypotheses, our main results state the existence of stationary control policies that are expected average cost (EAC) optimal and sample path average cost (SPAC)...

A note on control of the false discovery proportion

Marcin Dudziński, Konrad Furmańczyk (2009)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider the problem of simultaneous testing of a finite number of null hypotheses $H_{i}$ , i=1,...,s. Starting from the classical paper of Lehmann (1957), it has become a very popular subject of research. In many applications, particularly in molecular biology (see e.g. Dudoit et al. (2003), Pollard et al. (2005)), the number s, i.e. the number of tested hypotheses, is large and the popular procedures that control the familywise error rate (FWERM) have small power. Therefore, we are concerned...

An observability estimate for parabolic equations from a measurable set in time and its applications

Kim Dang Phung, Gengsheng Wang (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

This paper presents a new observability estimate for parabolic equations in $Ω \times (0, T)$ , where $Ω$ is a convex domain. The observation region is restricted over a product set of an open nonempty subset of $Ω$ and a subset of positive measure in $(0, T)$ . This estimate is derived with the aid of a quantitative unique continuation at one point in time. Applications to the bang-bang property for norm and time optimal control problems are provided.

Some Applications of Optimal Control Theory of Distributed Systems

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

Existence of optimal nonanticipating controls in piecewise deterministic control problems

Atle Seierstad (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

Optimal nonanticipating controls are shown to exist in nonautonomous piecewise deterministic control problems with hard terminal restrictions. The assumptions needed are completely analogous to those needed to obtain optimal controls in deterministic control problems. The proof is based on well-known results on existence of deterministic optimal controls.

Kybernetika

Similarity:

Design of model following control system (MFCS) for nonlinear system with time delays and disturbances is discussed. In this paper, the method of MFCS will be extended to nonlinear system with time delays. We set the nonlinear part $f (v (t))$ of the controlled object as $| | f (v (t)) | | \leq α + {β | | v (t) | |}^{γ}$ , and show the bounded of internal states by separating the nonlinear part into $γ \geq 0$ . Some preliminary numerical simulations are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A deterministic affine-quadratic optimal control problem

Yuanchang Wang, Jiongmin Yong (2014)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

A deterministic affine-quadratic optimal control problem is considered. Due to the nature of the problem, optimal controls exist under some very mild conditions. Further, it is shown that under some assumptions, the optimal control is unique which leads to the differentiability of the value function. Therefore, the value function satisfies the corresponding Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equation in the classical sense, and the optimal control admits a state feedback representation. Under some...

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.
