Applications of the homotopy analysis method to optimal control problems

Singh, Shubham, MS, Purdue University, August 2016. Applications of the Homotopy Analysis Method to Optimal Control Problems. Major Professor: Michael J. Grant. Traditionally, trajectory optimization for aerospace applications has been performed using either direct or indirect methods. Indirect methods produce highly accurate solutions but suffer from a small convergence region, requiring initi...

Solving a class of linear and non-linear optimal control problems by homotopy perturbation method

In this paper, we give an analytical approximate solution for non-linear quadratic optimal control problems and optimal control of linear systems using the homotopy perturbation method (HPM). Applying the HPM, the non-linear two-point boundary-value problem (TPBVP) and linear systems, derived from the Pontryagin’s maximum principle, are transformed into a sequence of linear time-invariant TPBVP...

Homotopy perturbation method for linear programming problems

In this paper, He’s homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is applied for solving linear programming (LP) problems. This paper shows that some recent findings about this topic cannot be applied for all cases. Furthermore, we provide the correct application of HPM for LP problems. The proposed method has a simple and graceful structure. Finally, a numerical example is displayed to illustrate the pro...
