Book Synopsis Numerical Methods for Optimal Control Problems by : Maurizio Falcone
Download or read book Numerical Methods for Optimal Control Problems written by Maurizio Falcone and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-01-26 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work presents recent mathematical methods in the area of optimal control with a particular emphasis on the computational aspects and applications. Optimal control theory concerns the determination of control strategies for complex dynamical systems, in order to optimize some measure of their performance. Started in the 60's under the pressure of the "space race" between the US and the former USSR, the field now has a far wider scope, and embraces a variety of areas ranging from process control to traffic flow optimization, renewable resources exploitation and management of financial markets. These emerging applications require more and more efficient numerical methods for their solution, a very difficult task due the huge number of variables. The chapters of this volume give an up-to-date presentation of several recent methods in this area including fast dynamic programming algorithms, model predictive control and max-plus techniques. This book is addressed to researchers, graduate students and applied scientists working in the area of control problems, differential games and their applications.

Book Synopsis Optimal Control of Dynamical Systems with Time-invariant Probabilistic Parametric Uncertainties by : Dongying Erin Shen
Download or read book Optimal Control of Dynamical Systems with Time-invariant Probabilistic Parametric Uncertainties written by Dongying Erin Shen and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of taking model uncertainties into account during controller design is well established. Although this theory is well developed and quite mature, the worst-case uncertainty descriptions assumed in robust control formulations are incompatible with the uncertainty descriptions generated by commercial model identification software that produces time-invariant parameter uncertainties typically in the form of probability distribution functions. This doctoral thesis derives rigorous theory and algorithms for the optimal control of dynamical systems with time-invariant probabilistic uncertainties. The main contribution of this thesis is new feedback control design algorithms for linear time-invariant systems with time-invariant probabilistic parametric uncertainties and stochastic noise. The originally stochastic system of equations is transformed into an equivalent deterministic system of equations using polynomial chaos (PC) theory. In addition, the H2- and H[infinity symbol]-norms commonly used to describe the effect of stochastic noise on output are transformed such that the eventual closed-loop performance is insensitive to parametric uncertainties. A robustifying constant is used to enforce the closed-loop stability of the original system of equations. This approach results in the first PC-based feedback control algorithm with proven closed-loop stability, and the first PC-based feedback control formulation that is applicable to the design of fixed-order state and output feedback control designs. The numerical algorithm for the control design is formulated as optimization over bilinear matrix inequality (BMI) constraints, for which commercial software is available. The effectiveness of the approach is demonstrated in two case studies that include a continuous pharmaceutical manufacturing process. In addition to model uncertainties, chemical processes must operate within constraints, such as upper and lower bounds on the magnitude and rate of change of manipulated and/or output variables. The thesis also demonstrates an optimal feedback control formulation that explicitly addresses both constraints and time-invariant probabilistic parameter uncertainties for linear time-invariant systems. The H2-optimal feedback controllers designed using the BMI formulations are incorporated into a fast PC-based model predictive control (MPC) formulation. A numerical case study demonstrates the improved constraint satisfaction compared to past polynomial chaos-based formulations for model predictive control.

Book Synopsis A Series Solution Framework for Finite-time Optimal Feedback Control, H-infinity Control and Games by : Rajnish Sharma
Download or read book A Series Solution Framework for Finite-time Optimal Feedback Control, H-infinity Control and Games written by Rajnish Sharma and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bolza-form of the finite-time constrained optimal control problem leads to the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation with terminal boundary conditions and tobe- determined parameters. In general, it is a formidable task to obtain analytical and/or numerical solutions to the HJB equation. This dissertation presents two novel polynomial expansion methodologies for solving optimal feedback control problems for a class of polynomial nonlinear dynamical systems with terminal constraints. The first approach uses the concept of higher-order series expansion methods. Specifically, the Series Solution Method (SSM) utilizes a polynomial series expansion of the cost-to-go function with time-dependent coefficient gains that operate on the state variables and constraint Lagrange multipliers. A significant accomplishment of the dissertation is that the new approach allows for a systematic procedure to generate optimal feedback control laws that exactly satisfy various types of nonlinear terminal constraints. The second approach, based on modified Galerkin techniques for the solution of terminally constrained optimal control problems, is also developed in this dissertation. Depending on the time-interval, nonlinearity of the system, and the terminal constraints, the accuracy and the domain of convergence of the algorithm can be related to the order of truncation of the functional form of the optimal cost function. In order to limit the order of the expansion and still retain improved midcourse performance, a waypoint scheme is developed. The waypoint scheme has the dual advantages of reducing computational efforts and gain-storage requirements. This is especially true for autonomous systems. To illustrate the theoretical developments, several aerospace application-oriented examples are presented, including a minimum-fuel orbit transfer problem. Finally, the series solution method is applied to the solution of a class of partial differential equations that arise in robust control and differential games. Generally, these problems lead to the Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs (HJI) equation. A method is presented that allows this partial differential equation to be solved using the structured series solution approach. A detailed investigation, with several numerical examples, is presented on the Nash and Pareto-optimal nonlinear feedback solutions with a general terminal payoff. Other significant applications are also discussed for one-dimensional problems with control inequality constraints and parametric optimization.

Download or read book Real-Time PDE-Constrained Optimization written by Lorenz T. Biegler and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2007-07-12 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “…a timely contribution to a field of growing importance. This carefully edited book presents a rich collection of chapters ranging from mathematical methodology to emerging applications. I recommend it to students as a rigorous and comprehensive presentation of simulation-based optimization and to researchers as an overview of recent advances and challenges in the field.” — Jorge Nocedal, Professor, Northwestern University.Many engineering and scientific problems in design, control, and parameter estimation can be formulated as optimization problems that are governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). The complexities of the PDEs—and the requirement for rapid solution—pose significant difficulties. A particularly challenging class of PDE-constrained optimization problems is characterized by the need for real-time solution, i.e., in time scales that are sufficiently rapid to support simulation-based decision making. Real-Time PDE-Constrained Optimization, the first book devoted to real-time optimization for systems governed by PDEs, focuses on new formulations, methods, and algorithms needed to facilitate real-time, PDE-constrained optimization. In addition to presenting state-of-the-art algorithms and formulations, the text illustrates these algorithms with a diverse set of applications that includes problems in the areas of aerodynamics, biology, fluid dynamics, medicine, chemical processes, homeland security, and structural dynamics. Despite difficulties, there is a pressing need to capitalize on continuing advances in computing power to develop optimization methods that will replace simple rule-based decision making with optimized decisions based on complex PDE simulations. Audience The book is aimed at readers who have expertise in simulation and are interested in incorporating optimization into their simulations, who have expertise in numerical optimization and are interested in adapting optimization methods to the class of infinite-dimensional simulation problems, or who have worked in “offline” optimization contexts and are interested in moving to “online” optimization.Contents Preface; Part I: Concepts and Properties of Real-Time, Online Strategies.

Book Synopsis Problems and Methods of Optimal Control by : L.D. Akulenko
Download or read book Problems and Methods of Optimal Control written by L.D. Akulenko and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The numerous applications of optimal control theory have given an incentive to the development of approximate techniques aimed at the construction of control laws and the optimization of dynamical systems. These constructive approaches rely on small parameter methods (averaging, regular and singular perturbations), which are well-known and have been proven to be efficient in nonlinear mechanics and optimal control theory (maximum principle, variational calculus and dynamic programming). An essential feature of the procedures for solving optimal control problems consists in the necessity for dealing with two-point boundary-value problems for nonlinear and, as a rule, nonsmooth multi-dimensional sets of differential equations. This circumstance complicates direct applications of the above-mentioned perturbation methods which have been developed mostly for investigating initial-value (Cauchy) problems. There is now a need for a systematic presentation of constructive analytical per turbation methods relevant to optimal control problems for nonlinear systems. The purpose of this book is to meet this need in the English language scientific literature and to present consistently small parameter techniques relating to the constructive investigation of some classes of optimal control problems which often arise in prac tice. This book is based on a revised and modified version of the monograph: L. D. Akulenko "Asymptotic methods in optimal control". Moscow: Nauka, 366 p. (in Russian).
