Lectures on Optimal Control Theory

چکیده
In the theory of mathematical optimization one try to find maximum or minimum points of functions depending of real variables and of other functions. Optimal control theory is a modern extension of the classical calculus of variations. Euler and Lagrange developed the theory of the calculus of variations in the eighteenth century. Its main ingredient is the Euler equation which was discovered already in 1744. The simplest problems in the calculus of variation are of the type

Introduction to Optimal Control for Systems with Distributed Parameters. I. Frechet Differentiability in Optimal Control of Parabolic Pdes – Part 1
Today I start a series of lectures on the optimal control of systems with distributed parameters, that is to say, optimal control of systems described by partial differential equations. Optimal Control theory is the generalization of the classical calculus of variations where minimization of the functional is pursued in the class of non-smooth functions. In XX century optimal control theory mad...
متن کاملControl Theory and Economic Policy Optimization: The Origin, Achievements and the Fading Optimism from a Historical Standpoint
Economists were interested in economic stabilization policies as early as the 1930’s but the formal applications of stability theory from the classical control theory to economic analysis appeared in the early 1950’s when a number of control engineers actively collaborated with economists on economic stability and feedback mechanisms. The theory of optimal control resulting from the contributio...
متن کاملEECS 291 E / ME 290 Q Lecture Notes 9 . Controllers for Safety for Continuous Systems
In the last lectures we have discussed optimal control and game theory for continuous systems: we highlighted mathematical tools (calculus of variations and dynamic programming) that may be used to solve these problems. In this lecture, we show how these methods may be applied to the problem of solving the reachability problem and synthesizing controllers for continuous systems: ẋ(t) = f(x(t), ...

i Preface In these five lectures, I cover selected items from the following topics: 1. Reduction theory for mechanical systems with symmetry, 2. Stability, bifurcation and underwater vehicle dynamics, 3. Systems with rolling constraints and locomotion, 4. Optimal control and stabilization of balance systems, 5. Variational integrators. Each topic itself could be expanded into several lectures, ...
