Bernoulli Functions

In this study, the orthonormal piecewise Bernoulli functions are generated as a new kind of basis functions. An explicit matrix related to fractional integration of these functions is obtained. An efficient direct method is developed to solve a novel set of optimal control problems defined using a fractional integro-differential equation. The presented technique is based on the expressed basis functions and their fractional integral matrix together with the Gauss–Legendre integration method and the Lagrange multipliers algorithm. This approach converts the original problem into a mathematical programming one. Three examples are investigated numerically to verify the capability and reliability of the approach.

Main Challenge

We propose a direct numerical method for the solution of an optimal control problem governed by a two-side space-fractional diffusion equation. The presented method contains two main steps. In the first step, the space variable is discretized by using the Jacobi–Gauss pseudospectral discretization and, in this way, the original problem is transformed into a classical integer–order optimal control problem. The main challenge, which we faced in this step, is to derive the left and right fractional differentiation matrices. In this respect, novel techniques for derivation of these matrices are presented. In the second step, the Legendre–Gauss–Radau pseudospectral method is employed. With these two steps, the original problem is converted into a convex quadratic optimization problem, which can be solved efficiently by available methods. Our approach can be easily implemented and extended to cover fractional optimal control problems with state constraints. Five test examples are provided to demonstrate the efficiency and validity of the presented method. The results show that our method reaches the solutions with good accuracy and a low central processing unit time.

AbstractWe consider infinite-horizon optimal control problems. The main idea is to convert the problem into an equivalent finite-horizon nonlinear optimal control problem. The resulting problem is then solved by means of a direct method using Haar wavelets. A local property of Haar wavelets is applied to simplify the calculation process. The accuracy of the present method is demonstrated by two illustrative examples.
