In this paper‎, ‎a modern method is presented to solve a class of fractional optimal control problems (FOCPs) indirectly‎. ‎First‎, ‎the necessary optimality conditions for the FOCP are obtained in the form of two fractional differential equations (FDEs)‎. ‎Then‎, ‎the unknown functions are approximated by the hybrid functions‎, ‎including Bernoulli polynomials and Block-pulse functions based o...

In this paper, boundary value problems of fractional order are converted into an optimal control problems. Then an approximate solution is constructed from translations and dilations of a B-spline function such that the exact boundary conditions are satisfied. The fractional differential operators are taken in the Riemann-Liouville and Caputo sense. Several example are given and the optimal err...

Fractional Order Control methods were applied to a three-axis reaction wheels satellite attitude control system. To show the advantages of this method, a comparative study between a Linear Quadratic Regulator and a Fractional Order Control was established through two principal fractional control laws. The aim is to establish an efJicient control law which satisJies a given speczjication and mai...

In this paper, a computational intelligence method is used for the solution of fractional optimal control problems (FOCP)'s with equality and inequality constraints. According to the Ponteryagin minimum principle (PMP) for FOCP with fractional derivative in the Riemann- Liouville sense and by constructing a suitable error function, we define an unconstrained minimization problem. In the optimiz...

Abstract: A formulation and solution of the discrete-time fractional optimal control problem in terms of the Caputo fractional derivative is presented in this paper. The performance index (PI) is considered in a quadratic form. The necessary and transversality conditions are obtained using a Hamiltonian approach. Both the free and fixed final state cases have been considered. Numerical examples...
