Book Optimization of Controlled Sweeping Processes with Applications

Download or read book Optimization of Controlled Sweeping Processes with Applications written by Nguyen-Truc-Dao Nguyen and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dissertation is devoted to the study of a new class of optimal control problems described by a controlled version of Moreau's sweeping process governed by convex polyhedra, where measurable control actions enter additive perturbations. This class of problems, which addresses unbounded discontinuous differential inclusions with intrinsic state constraints, is truly challenging and underinvestigated in control theory while being highly important for various applications. To attack such problems with constrained measurable controls, we develop a reƠ̐1ned method of discrete approximations with establishing its well-posedness and strong convergence. This approach, married to advanced tools of first-order and second-order variational analysis and generalized differentiation, allows us to derive adequate collections of necessary optimality conditions for local minimizers, first in discrete-time problems and then in the original continuous-time controlled sweeping process by passing to the limit. The new results include an appropriate maximum condition and significantly extend the previous ones obtained under essentially more restrictive assumptions. We compare them with other versions of the maximum principle for controlled sweeping processes that have been recently established for global minimizers in problems with smooth sweeping sets by using different techniques. Besides illustrative examples, we apply the obtained results to optimal control problems associated with the mobile robot model and traffic flow model through a doorway, which are formulated in this thesis. The derived optimality conditions allow us to develop an effective procedure to solve these problems in a general setting and completely calculate optimal solutions in particular situations.

Book Optimal Control of a Perturbed Sweeping Process with Applications to the Crowd Motion Model

Download or read book Optimal Control of a Perturbed Sweeping Process with Applications to the Crowd Motion Model written by Tan Hoang Cao and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dissertation is devoted to the study and applications of a new class of optimal control problems governed by a perturbed sweeping process of the hysteresis type with control functions acting in both play-and-stop operator and additive perturbations. Such control problems can be reduced to optimization of discontinuous and unbounded dif- ferential inclusions with pointwise state constraints, which are immensely challenging in control theory and prevent employing conventional variation techniques to derive neces- sary optimality conditions. We develop the method of discrete approximations married with appropriate generalized differential tools of modern variational analysis to overcome principal difficulties in passing to the limit from optimality conditions for finite-difference systems. This approach leads us to nondegenerate necessary conditions for local minimiz- ers of the controlled sweeping process expressed entirely via the problem data. Besides illustrative examples, we apply the obtained results to an optimal control problem asso- ciated with of the crowd motion model of traffic flow in a corridor, which is formulated in this thesis. The derived optimality conditions allow us to develop an effective procedure to solve this problem in a general setting and completely calculate optimal solutions in particular situations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive introduction to optimization with a focus on practical algorithms for the design of engineering systems. This book offers a comprehensive introduction to optimization with a focus on practical algorithms. The book approaches optimization from an engineering perspective, where the objective is to design a system that optimizes a set of metrics subject to constraints. Readers will learn about computational approaches for a range of challenges, including searching high-dimensional spaces, handling problems where there are multiple competing objectives, and accommodating uncertainty in the metrics. Figures, examples, and exercises convey the intuition behind the mathematical approaches. The text provides concrete implementations in the Julia programming language. Topics covered include derivatives and their generalization to multiple dimensions; local descent and first- and second-order methods that inform local descent; stochastic methods, which introduce randomness into the optimization process; linear constrained optimization, when both the objective function and the constraints are linear; surrogate models, probabilistic surrogate models, and using probabilistic surrogate models to guide optimization; optimization under uncertainty; uncertainty propagation; expression optimization; and multidisciplinary design optimization. Appendixes offer an introduction to the Julia language, test functions for evaluating algorithm performance, and mathematical concepts used in the derivation and analysis of the optimization methods discussed in the text. The book can be used by advanced undergraduates and graduate students in mathematics, statistics, computer science, any engineering field, (including electrical engineering and aerospace engineering), and operations research, and as a reference for professionals.

Book Optimal Control Theory with Applications in Economics

Download or read book Optimal Control Theory with Applications in Economics written by Thomas A. Weber and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2011-09-30 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rigorous introduction to optimal control theory, with an emphasis on applications in economics. This book bridges optimal control theory and economics, discussing ordinary differential equations, optimal control, game theory, and mechanism design in one volume. Technically rigorous and largely self-contained, it provides an introduction to the use of optimal control theory for deterministic continuous-time systems in economics. The theory of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) is the backbone of the theory developed in the book, and chapter 2 offers a detailed review of basic concepts in the theory of ODEs, including the solution of systems of linear ODEs, state-space analysis, potential functions, and stability analysis. Following this, the book covers the main results of optimal control theory, in particular necessary and sufficient optimality conditions; game theory, with an emphasis on differential games; and the application of control-theoretic concepts to the design of economic mechanisms. Appendixes provide a mathematical review and full solutions to all end-of-chapter problems. The material is presented at three levels: single-person decision making; games, in which a group of decision makers interact strategically; and mechanism design, which is concerned with a designer's creation of an environment in which players interact to maximize the designer's objective. The book focuses on applications; the problems are an integral part of the text. It is intended for use as a textbook or reference for graduate students, teachers, and researchers interested in applications of control theory beyond its classical use in economic growth. The book will also appeal to readers interested in a modeling approach to certain practical problems involving dynamic continuous-time models.
