A new time-domain improved PSO algorithm is proposed to solve the problem of reentry trajectory optimization. The approach uses time-domain basis functions fitting the control variables, solves free final time optimal control directly, and sets parameters by using vehicle's dynamic characteristics. Simulation of a reentry vehicle with no-fly zone constraints is used to demonstrate the effectiveness and veracity of algorithm in reentry trajectory optimization. The final condition error is less than 1%.

Abstract Effective motion control can achieve accurate and fast positioning and movement of industrial robotics and improve industrial productivity significantly. Time-optimal trajectory optimization (TO) is a great concern in the motion control of robotics and can improve motion efficiency by providing high-speed and reasonable motion references to the motion controller. In this study, a new time-optimal TO strategy, polynomial interpolation function (PIF) combined with improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) considering kinematic and dynamic limits, successfully optimizes the movement time of the PUMA 560 serial manipulator along a randomly assigned path. The 4-3-4 PIF is first used to generate the smooth and 3-order continuous movement trajectories of six joints in joint space. The PSO with cosine decreasing weight (CDW-PSO) algorithm further reduces the trajectories movement time considering the limits of the angular displacement, angular velocity, angular acceleration, angular jerk, and joint torque. Experimental results show that the CDW-PSO algorithm achieves a better convergence rate of 23 and a better fitness value of 2.46 compared with the PSO with constant weight and linearly decreasing weight algorithms. The CDW-PSO optimized movement time is reduced by 83.6% compared to the manually setting movement time value of 15. The proposed time-optimal TO strategy can be conducted easily and directly search for global optimal solutions without approximation of the limits. The optimized trajectories could be incorporated in the motion controller of the actual manipulators due to considering the kinematic and dynamic limits.

Reentry trajectory optimization has been researched as a popular topic because of its wide applications in both military and civilian use. It is a challenging problem owing to its strong nonlinearity in motion equations and constraints. Besides, it is a high-dimensional optimization problem. In this paper, an improved chicken swarm optimization (ICSO) method is proposed considering that the chicken swarm optimization (CSO) method is easy to fall into local optimum when solving high-dimensional optimization problem. Firstly, the model used in this study is described, including its characteristic, the nonlinear constraints, and cost function. Then, by introducing the crossover operator, the principles and the advantages of the ICSO algorithm are explained. Finally, the ICSO method solving the reentry trajectory optimization problem is proposed. The control variables are discretized at a set of Chebyshev collocation points, and the angle of attack is set to fit with the flight velocity to make the optimization efficient. Based on those operations, the process of ICSO method is depicted. Experiments are conducted using five algorithms under different indexes, and the superiority of the proposed ICSO algorithm is demonstrated. Another group of experiments are carried out to investigate the influence of hen percentage on the algorithm’s performance.

This paper deals with the reentry trajectory optimization problem for lunar return with consideration of entry vehicle’s fore-body shape. Three performance objectives are applied in this work: cross range, peak heat flux and total heat load. Aerothermodynamic models are based on modified Newtonian impact theory and semi-empirical correlations for convective and radiative stagnation-point heat transfer. A population based evolutionary algorithm has been executed to optimize the multidisciplinary problem. At last the numerical example showed the Pareto frontiers for spherical segment and sphere cone respectively, one of optimal trajectory designs selected from the Pareto frontiers are showed in this paper. The mission requirements are satisfied through the aerothermodynamic balance.
