Minimax Optimal Control for Atmospheric Fly-Through Trajectories ~
نویسندگان
چکیده
Necessary conditions for minimax problems with isolated or flat maxima are presented. Some relevant properties concerning the peak heating rate and the peak deceleration during atmospheric entry are discussed. As application of the theory, the problem of minimizing the peak heating rate of a skip trajectory is solved with special emphasis on the discussion of the continuity of the lift control at the point where the maximum occurs along the trajectory.

Optimal Trajectory Generation for a Robotic Worm via Parameterization by B-Spline Curves
In this paper we intend to generate some set of optimal trajectories according to the number of control points has been applied for parameterizing those using B-spline curves. The trajectories are used to generate an optimal locomotion gait in a crawling worm-like robot. Due to gait design considerations it is desired to minimize the required torques in a cycle of gait. Similar to caterpillars,...
متن کاملOn the Minimax Optimality of Block Thresholded Wavelets Estimators for ?-Mixing Process
We propose a wavelet based regression function estimator for the estimation of the regression function for a sequence of ?-missing random variables with a common one-dimensional probability density function. Some asymptotic properties of the proposed estimator based on block thresholding are investigated. It is found that the estimators achieve optimal minimax convergence rates over large class...
متن کاملBiomechanical Investigation of Empirical Optimal Trajectories Introduced for Snatch Weightlifting
The optimal barbell trajectory for snatch weightlifting has been achieved empirically by several researchers. They have studied the differences between the elite weightlifters’ movement patterns and suggested three optimal barbell trajectories (type A, B, and C). But they didn’t agree for introducing the best trajectory. One of the reasons is this idea that the selected criterion by researchers...
متن کاملControl Theory and Economic Policy Optimization: The Origin, Achievements and the Fading Optimism from a Historical Standpoint
Economists were interested in economic stabilization policies as early as the 1930’s but the formal applications of stability theory from the classical control theory to economic analysis appeared in the early 1950’s when a number of control engineers actively collaborated with economists on economic stability and feedback mechanisms. The theory of optimal control resulting from the contributio...
متن کاملCentralized Ensemble-Based Trajectory Planning of Cooperating Sensors for Estimating Atmospheric Dispersion Processes
Optimal coordination of multiple sensors is crucial for efficient atmospheric dispersion estimation. The proposed approach adaptively provides optimized trajectories with respect to sensor cooperation and uncertainty reduction of the process estimate. To avoid the timeconsuming solution of a complex optimal control problem, estimation and vehicle control are considered separate problems linked ...
