Optimization and identification of nonlinear uncertain systems

Jong Yeoul Park, Yong Han Kang, Il Hyo Jung (2003)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

In this paper we consider the optimal control of both operators and parameters for uncertain systems. For the optimal control and identification problem, we show existence of an optimal solution and present necessary conditions of optimality.

Optimization problems with convex epigraphs. Application to optimal control

Arkadii Kryazhimskii (2001)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

For a class of infinite-dimensional minimization problems with nonlinear equality constraints, an iterative algorithm for finding global solutions is suggested. A key assumption is the convexity of the ''epigraph'', a set in the product of the image spaces of the constraint and objective functions. A convexification method involving randomization is used. The algorithm is based on the extremal shift control principle due to N.N. Krasovskii. An application to a problem of optimal control for a bilinear...

Penalization of Dirichlet optimal control problems

Eduardo Casas, Mariano Mateos, Jean-Pierre Raymond (2009)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We apply Robin penalization to Dirichlet optimal control problems governed by semilinear elliptic equations. Error estimates in terms of the penalization parameter are stated. The results are compared with some previous ones in the literature and are checked by a numerical experiment. A detailed study of the regularity of the solutions of the PDEs is carried out.

Random perturbation of the projected variable metric method for nonsmooth nonconvex optimization problems with linear constraints

Abdelkrim El Mouatasim, Rachid Ellaia, Eduardo Souza de Cursi (2011)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

We present a random perturbation of the projected variable metric method for solving linearly constrained nonsmooth (i.e., nondifferentiable) nonconvex optimization problems, and we establish the convergence to a global minimum for a locally Lipschitz continuous objective function which may be nondifferentiable on a countable set of points. Numerical results show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Receding horizon optimal control for infinite dimensional systems

Kazufumi Ito, Karl Kunisch (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

The receding horizon control strategy for dynamical systems posed in infinite dimensional spaces is analysed. Its stabilising property is verified provided control Lyapunov functionals are used as terminal penalty functions. For closed loop dissipative systems the terminal penalty can be chosen as quadratic functional. Applications to the Navier–Stokes equations, semilinear wave equations and reaction diffusion systems are given.

Recursive form of general limited memory variable metric methods

Ladislav Lukšan, Jan Vlček (2013)

Kybernetika

In this report we propose a new recursive matrix formulation of limited memory variable metric methods. This approach can be used for an arbitrary update from the Broyden class (and some other updates) and also for the approximation of both the Hessian matrix and its inverse. The new recursive formulation requires approximately 4 m n multiplications and additions per iteration, so it is comparable with other efficient limited memory variable metric methods. Numerical experiments concerning Algorithm...

Shape optimization by means of the penalty method with extrapolation

Ivan Hlaváček (1994)

Applications of Mathematics

A model shape optimal design in 2 is solved by means of the penalty method with extrapolation, which enables to obtain high order approximations of both the state function and the boundary flux, thus offering a reliable gradient for the sensitivity analysis. Convergence of the proposed method is proved for certain subsequences of approximate solutions.

Shape optimization in contact problems based on penalization of the state inequality

Jaroslav Haslinger, Pekka Neittaanmäki, Timo Tiihonen (1986)

Aplikace matematiky

The paper deals with the approximation of optimal shape of elastic bodies, unilaterally supported by a rigid, frictionless foundation. Original state inequality, describing the behaviour of such a body is replaced by a family of penalized state problems. The relation between optimal shapes for the original state inequality and those for penalized state equations is established.
