AbstractIn this paper, the dynamic behavior of a class of switched systems with internally forced switching (IFS) is investigated. By introducing the definitions of continuous dependence and differentiability, the continuous dependence and differentiability of the solution relative to the control function are obtained. In the past studies, the optimal control problem given by IFS mainly focused on a special class of controlled systems (the piece affine system). Our results lay a good foundation for studying the more general internally forced switching problem.

A new approach is considered to solving the problem of synthesizing an optimal control system based on the extremals' set approximation. At the first stage, the optimal control problem for various initial states out of a given domain is being numerically sold. Evolutionary algorithms are used to solve the optimal control problem numerically. At the second stage, the problem of approximating the found set of extremals by the method of symbolic regression is solved. Approach considered in the work makes it possible to eliminate the main drawback of the known approach to solving the control synthesis problem using the symbolic regression method, which consists in the fact that the genetic algorithm used in solving the synthesis problem does not provide information about proximity of the found solution to the optimal one. Here, control function is built on the basis of a set of extremals; therefore, any particular solution should be close to the optimal trajectory. Computational experiment is presented for solving the applied problem of synthesizing the four-wheel robot optimal control system in the presence of phase constraints. It is experimentally demonstrated that the synthesized control function makes it possible for any initial state from a given domain to obtain trajectories close to optimal in the quality functional. Initial states were considered during the experiment, both included in the approximating set of optimal trajectories and others from the same given domain. Approximation of the extremals set was carried out by the network operator method

A geometric method is described to characterize the different kinds of extremals in optimal control theory. This comes from the use of a presymplectic constraint algorithm starting from the necessary conditions given by Pontryagin's Maximum Principle. The algorithm must be run twice so as to obtain suitable sets that once projected must be compared. Apart from the design of this general algorithm useful for any optimal control problem, it is shown how to classify the set of extremals and, in particular, how to characterize the strict abnormality. An example of strict abnormal extremal for a particular control-affine system is also given.

We pose an optimal control problem arising in a perhaps new model for retirement investing. Given a control function f and our current net worth X(t) for any t, we invest an amount f(X(t)) in the market. We need a fortune of M ‘superdollars’ to retire and want to retire as early as possible. We model our change in net worth over each infinitesimal time interval by the Itô process dX(t) = (1 + f(X(t)))dt + f(X(t))dW(t). We show how to choose the optimal f = f 0 and show that the choice of f 0 is optimal among all nonanticipative investment strategies, not just among Markovian ones.

This present study proposes an optimal control problem, with the final goal of implementing an optimal treatment protocol which could maximize the survival time of patients and minimize the cost of drug utilizing a system of ordinary differential equations which describes the interaction of the immune system with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Optimal control problem transfers into a modified problem in measure space using an embedding method in which the existence of optimal solution is guaranteed by compactness of the space. Then the metamorphosed problem is approximated by a linear programming (LP) problem, and by solving this LP problem a suboptimal piecewise constant control function, which is more practical from the clinical viewpoint, is achieved. The comparison between the immune system dynamics in treated and untreated patients is introduced. Finally, the relationships between the healthy cells and virus are shown.

AbstractAn optimal control problem for the vibration equation of an elastic plate is considered when the control function is included in the coefficient of the highest order derivative and the right-hand side of the equation. The solvability of the initial boundary value problem is shown, the theorem on the existence of an optimal control is proved and a necessary condition of optimality in the form of an integral equation is obtained.

In batch culture of glycerol biodissimilation to 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD), the aim of adding glycerol is to obtain as much 1,3-PD as possible. Taking the yield intensity of 1,3-PD as the performance index and the initial concentration of biomass, glycerol, and terminal time as the control vector, we propose an optimal control model subject to a multistage nonlinear dynamical system and constraints of continuous state. A computational approach is constructed to seek the solution of the above model. Firstly, we transform the optimal control problem into the one with fixed terminal time. Secondly, we transcribe the optimal control model into an unconstrained one based on the penalty functions and an extension of the state space. Finally, by approximating the control function with simple functions, we transform the unconstrained optimal control problem into a sequence of nonlinear programming problems, which can be solved using gradient-based optimization techniques. The convergence analysis and optimality function of the algorithm are also investigated. Numerical results show that, by employing the optimal control, the concentration of 1,3-PD at the terminal time can be increased, compared with the previous results.
