in this paper, an integration of improve particle swarm optimization (ipso) incombination with successive quadratic programming (sqp) so called ipso-sqpalgorithm is proposed to solve time optimal bang-bang control problems. theprocedure is found not sensitive to the initial guess of the solution. due to randomselection in the first stage of the search process, the chance of converging to theglo...

in this paper, a new numerical method is presented for solvingthe optimal control problems of bang-bang type with free or xed terminaltime. the method is based on bezier polynomials which are presented inany interval as [t0; tf ]. the problems are reduced to a constrained problemswhich can be solved by using lagrangian method. the constraints ofthese problems are terminal state and conditions....

this paper proposes a discrete-time repetitive optimal control of electrically driven robotic manipulators using an uncertainty estimator. the proposed control method can be used for performing repetitive motion, which covers many industrial applications of robotic manipulators. this kind of control law is in the class of torque-based control in which the joint torques are generated by permanen...

This paper considers solving optimization problem for linear discrete time systems such that closed-loop discrete-time system is positive (i.e., all of its state variables have non-negative values) and also finite-time stable. For this purpose, by considering a quadratic cost function, an optimal controller is designed such that in addition to minimizing the cost function, the positivity proper...

the time-optimal trajectory for an airplane from some starting point to some final point is studied by many authors. here, we consider the extension of robot planer motion of dubins model in three dimensional spaces. in this model, the system has independent bounded control over both the altitude velocity and the turning rate of airplane movement in a non-obstacle space. here, in this paper a g...
