The problem of finding the initial conditions in the boundary-value problem for the system of flexural-torsional vibrations of a bar with additional conditions on the straight line is reduced to an optimal control problem and studied by the methods of optimal control theory. The gradient of the functional is calculated and using the gradient expression a necessary and sufficient optimality condition are proved.

AbstractIn this paper, an optimal control problem is considered for a system of fourth order hyperbolic equations with constant coefficients. The gradient of the functional is calculated and the necessary and sufficient conditions of optimality in the form of an integral inequality are derived.

We consider the optimal control problem with vector-valued criterion (including cooperative games) and seek Pareto-optimal (noninferior) solutions. Scalarization results, together with modified sufficiency theorems from optimal control theory, are used to deduce sufficient conditions for Pareto-optimality. The utilization of these conditions is illustrated by various examples.

Distributed-order fractional non-local operators were introduced and studied by Caputo at the end of the 20th century. They generalize fractional order derivatives/integrals in the sense that such operators are defined by a weighted integral of different orders of differentiation over a certain range. The subject of distributed-order non-local derivatives is currently under strong development due to its applications in modeling some complex real world phenomena. Fractional optimal control theory deals with the optimization of a performance index functional, subject to a fractional control system. One of the most important results in classical and fractional optimal control is the Pontryagin Maximum Principle, which gives a necessary optimality condition that every solution to the optimization problem must verify. In our work, we extend the fractional optimal control theory by considering dynamical system constraints depending on distributed-order fractional derivatives. Precisely, we prove a weak version of Pontryagin’s maximum principle and a sufficient optimality condition under appropriate convexity assumptions.

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.

AbstractWe consider an optimal control problem with, possibly time-dependent, constraints on state and control variables, jointly. Using only elementary methods, we derive a sufficient condition for optimality. Although phrased in terms reminiscent of the necessary condition of Pontryagin, the sufficient condition is logically independent, as can be shown by a simple example.

In this paper, we consider an optimal control problem involving second-order hyperbolic systems with boundary controls. Necessary and sufficient conditions are derived and a result on the existence of optimal controls is obtained. Also, a computational algorithm which generated minimizing sequences of controls is devised and the convergence properties of the algorithm are investigated.

In the design of compressor blades we put forward an optimization flow-type problem which enables the designers to consider the optimization of specified performance index of the flow-type characteristics, such as that of work or efficiency of a compressor stage. The method of the diffusion factor flow-type design (DFFTD), presented by the authors [1], is taken here as a physical model. On the basis of optimal control theory a mathematical model of the optimal flow-type problem has been established and further recast into a typical form of optimal control problem with free initial conditions, terminal constraints, and state variable inequality constraints.
