A Computational Method for Solving Optimal Control Problems and Their Applications

Authors

Abstract:

In order to obtain a solution to an optimal control problem‎, ‎a numerical technique based on state-control parameterization method is presented‎. ‎This method can be facilitated by the computation of performance index and state equation via approximating the control and state variable as a function of time‎. ‎Several numerical examples are presented to confirm the analytical findings and illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method.

A Method for Solving Optimal Control Problems Using Genetic Programming

This paper deals with a novel method for solving optimal control problems based on genetic programming. This approach produces some trial solutions and seeks the best of them. If the solution cannot be expressed in a closed analytical form then our method produces an approximation with a controlled level of accuracy. Using numerical examples, we will demonstrate how to use the results.

A Novel Successive Approximation Method for Solving a Class of Optimal Control Problems

This paper presents a successive approximation method (SAM) for solving a large class of optimal control problems. The proposed analytical-approximate method, successively solves the Two-Point Boundary Value Problem (TPBVP), obtained from the Pontryagin's Maximum Principle (PMP). The convergence of this method is proved and a control design algorithm with low computational complexity is present...

Generalized B-spline functions ‎method‎‎ for solving optimal control problems

‎In this paper we introduce a numerical approach that solves optimal control problems (OCPs) ‎using collocation methods‎. ‎This approach is based upon B-spline functions‎. ‎The derivative matrices between any two families of B-spline functions are utilized to‎ ‎reduce the solution of OCPs to the solution of nonlinear optimization problems‎. ‎Numerical experiments confirm our heoretical findings‎.

Solving optimal control problems by PSO-SVM

The optimal control of problem is about finding a control law for a given system such that a certain optimality criterion is achieved. Methods of solving the optimal control problems are divided into direct methods and mediated methods (through other equations). In this paper, the PSO- SVM indirect method is used to solve a class of optimal control problems. In this paper, we try to determine t...

A New Modification of Legendre-Gauss Collocation Method for Solving a Class of Fractional Optimal Control Problems

In this paper, the optimal conditions for fractional optimal control problems (FOCPs) were derived in which the fractional differential operators defined in terms of Caputo sense and reduces this problem to a system of fractional differential equations (FDEs) that is called twopoint boundary value (TPBV) problem. An approximate solution of this problem is constructed by using the Legendre-Gauss...
