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

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

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)...

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.

On the optimal setting of the $h p$ -version of the finite element method

Chleboun, Jan

Similarity:

The goal of this contribution is to find the optimal finite element space for solving a particular boundary value problem in one spatial dimension. In other words, the optimal use of available degrees of freedom is sought after. This is done through optimizing both the mesh and the polynomial degree of the basis functions. The resulting combinatorial optimization problem is solved in parallel by a Matlab program running on a cluster of multi-core personal computers.

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...

Model following control system with time delays

Dazhong Wang, Shujing Wu, Wei Zhang, Guoqiang Wang, Fei Wu, Shigenori Okubo (2016)

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.

New a posteriori $L^{\infty} (L^{2})$ and $L^{2} (L^{2})$ -error estimates of mixed finite element methods for general nonlinear parabolic optimal control problems

Zuliang Lu (2016)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We study new a posteriori error estimates of the mixed finite element methods for general optimal control problems governed by nonlinear parabolic equations. The state and the co-state are discretized by the high order Raviart-Thomas mixed finite element spaces and the control is approximated by piecewise constant functions. We derive a posteriori error estimates in $L^{\infty} (J; L^{2} (Ω))$ -norm and $L^{2} (J; L^{2} (Ω))$ -norm for both the state, the co-state and the control approximation. Such estimates, which seem to be new,...

Distances to convex sets

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

If X is a Banach space and C a convex subset of X*, we investigate whether the distance $d ̂ ({\bar{c o}}^{w *} (K), C) : = s u p i n f | | k - c | | : c \in C : k \in {\bar{c o}}^{w *} (K)$ from ${\bar{c o}}^{w *} (K)$ to C is M-controlled by the distance d̂(K,C) (that is, if $d ̂ ({\bar{c o}}^{w *} (K), C) \leq M d ̂ (K, C)$ for some 1 ≤ M < ∞), when K is any weak*-compact subset of X*. We prove, for example, that: (i) C has 3-control if C contains no copy of the basis of ℓ₁(c); (ii) C has 1-control when C ⊂ Y ⊂ X* and Y is a subspace with weak*-angelic closed dual unit ball B(Y*); (iii) if C is a convex subset of X and X is considered canonically...

Tube-MPC for a class of uncertain continuous nonlinear systems with application to surge problem

Similarity:

This paper presents a new robust adaptive model predictive control for a special class of continuous-time non-linear systems with uncertainty. These systems have bounded disturbances with unknown upper bound, as well as constraints on input states. An adaptive control is used in the new controller to estimate the system uncertainty. Also, to avoid the system disturbances, a $H_{\infty}$ method is employed to find the appropriate gain in Tube-MPC. Finally, a surge avoidance problem in centrifugal...
