Theory of Optimal Control Using Bisimulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We consider the synthesis of optimal controls for continuous feedback systems by recasting the problem to a hybrid optimal control problem: to synthesize optimal enabling conditions for switching between locations in which the control is constant. An algorithmic solution is obtained by translating the hybrid automaton to a finite automaton using a ...

Relaxation Methods for Mixed-Integer Optimal Control of Partial Differential Equations

open access: yes, 2012
We consider integer-restricted optimal control of systems governed by abstract semilinear evolution equations. This includes the problem of optimal control design for certain distributed parameter systems endowed with multiple actuators, where the task ...

Optimal Entrainment of Heterogeneous Noisy Neurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2015
We develop a methodology to design a stimulus optimized to entrain nonlinear, noisy limit cycle oscillators with uncertain properties. Conditions are derived which guarantee that the stimulus will entrain the oscillators despite these uncertainties ...

Entropy Generation Rate Minimization for Methanol Synthesis via a CO2 Hydrogenation Reactor

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
The methanol synthesis via CO2 hydrogenation (MSCH) reaction is a useful CO2 utilization strategy, and this synthesis path has also been widely applied commercially for many years.

Asymptotic control theory for a system of linear oscillators

open access: yes, 2016
We present an asymptotic control theory for a system of an arbitrary number of linear oscillators under a common bounded control. We suggest a design method of a feedback control for this system.

Markov–Dubins path via optimal control theory [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Optimization and Applications, 2017
Markov-Dubins path is the shortest planar curve joining two points with prescribed tangents, with a specified bound on its curvature. Its structure, as proved by Dubins in 1957 nearly 70 years after Markov posed the problem of finding it, is elegantly simple: a selection of at most three arcs are concatenated, each of which is either a circular arc of ...
