Variational optimisation by the solution of a series of Hamilton–Jacobi equations
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a unified scheme which, by combining backward differentiation formulae and variational optimisation theory, significantly extends the scope of both concepts and their application to optimisation problems wherein the constituent dynamics consist of widely disparate scales. Our approach is based on the time-integration of a series of matrix Riccati expressions which satisfy a Hamilton–Jacobi equation. © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Optimal Control of Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease Model using Variational Iteration Method
In this paper, the optimal control of transmission dynamics of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD), formulated by a compartmental deterministic SEIPR (Susceptible-Incubation (Exposed)- Infected - Post infection virus shedding - Recovered) model with vaccination and treatment as control parameters is considered. The objective function is based on the combination of minimizing the number of infec...
متن کاملWeak Kam Theory for General Hamilton-jacobi Equations I: the Solution Semigroup under Proper Conditions
We consider the following evolutionary Hamilton-Jacobi equation with initial condition: { ∂tu(x, t) +H(x, u(x, t), ∂xu(x, t)) = 0, u(x, 0) = φ(x). Under some assumptions on H(x, u, p) with respect to p and u, we provide a variational principle on the evolutionary Hamilton-Jacobi equation. By introducing an implicitly defined solution semigroup, we extend Fathi’s weak KAM theory to certain more ...
متن کاملAn ENO-Based Method for Second-Order Equations and Application to the Control of Dike Levels
This work aims to model the optimal control of dike heights. The control problem leads to so-called Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) variational inequalities, where the dike-increase and reinforcement times act as input quantities to the control problem. The HJB equations are solved numerically with an Essentially Non-Oscillatory (ENO) method. The ENO methodology is originally intended for hyperbo...
متن کاملOn C-variational solutions for Hamilton-Jacobi equations
For evolutive Hamilton-Jacobi equations, we propose a refined definition of C-variational solution, adapted to Cauchy problems for continuous initial data. In this weaker framework we investigate the Markovian (or semigroup) property for these solutions. In the case of p-convex Hamiltonians, when variational solutions are known to be identical to viscosity solutions, we verify directly the Mark...
متن کاملThe finite element approximation of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations: the noncoercive case
This paper deals with the finite element approximation of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations. We establish a convergence and a quasi-optimal Lm -error estimate, involving a weakly coupled system of quasi-variational inequalities for the solution of which an iterative scheme of monotone kind is introduced and analyzed.
