Sufficient optimality conditions for multivariable control problems

Andrzej Nowakowski (2007)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

We study optimal control problems for partial differential equations (focusing on the multidimensional differential equation) with control functions in the Dirichlet boundary conditions under pointwise control (and we admit state - by assuming weak hypotheses) constraints.

Switching control

Enrique Zuazua (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

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 building...

Symplectic Pontryagin approximations for optimal design

Jesper Carlsson, Mattias Sandberg, Anders Szepessy (2009)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

The powerful Hamilton-Jacobi theory is used for constructing regularizations and error estimates for optimal design problems. The constructed Pontryagin method is a simple and general method for optimal design and reconstruction: the first, analytical, step is to regularize the hamiltonian; next the solution to its stationary hamiltonian system, a nonlinear partial differential equation, is computed with the Newton method. The method is efficient for designs where the hamiltonian function can be...
