Book Sequential Conjugate Gradient restoration Algorithm for Optimal Control Problems with Nondifferential Constraints and General Boundary Conditions

Download or read book Sequential Conjugate Gradient restoration Algorithm for Optimal Control Problems with Nondifferential Constraints and General Boundary Conditions written by A. K. Wu and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper considers the numerical solution of the problem of minimizing a functional subject to differential constraints, nondifferential constraints, and general boundary conditions. The approach taken is a sequence of two-phase cycles, composed of a conjugate gradient phase and a restoration phase. The conjugate gradient phase involves one iteration: the first variation of the functional is minimized, subject to the linearized constraints and a quadratic constraint imposed on the variations of the control, the parameter, and the missing components of the initial state. The restoration phase involves one or more iterations: in each iteration, the norm squared of the variations of the control, the parameter, and the missing components of the initial state is minimized, subject to the linearized constraints. Twelve numerical examples are presented in order to illustrate the performance of the algorithm. The numerical results show the feasibility as well as the convergence characteristics of the present algorithm.

This book was released on 1978 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper considers the numerical solution of the problem of minimizing a functional subject to differential constraints and general boundary conditions. The approach taken is a sequence of two-phase cycles, composed of a conjugate gradient phase and a restoration phase. The conjugate gradient phase involves one iteration and is designed to decrease the value of the functional, while the constraints are satisfied to first order. During this iteration, the first variation of the functional is minimized, subject to the linearized constraints and to a quadratic constraint imposed on the variations of the control, the parameter, and the missing components of the initial state. The restoration phase involves one or more iterations and is designed to force constraint satisfaction to a predetermined accuracy, while the norm squared of the variations of the control, the parameter, and the missing components of the initial state is minimized.

Book Sequential Conjugate Gradient Restoration Algorithm for Optimal Control Problems with Nondifferential Constraints  Part 1  Theory

Download or read book Sequential Conjugate Gradient Restoration Algorithm for Optimal Control Problems with Nondifferential Constraints Part 1 Theory written by J. R. Cloutier and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sequential conjugate gradient-restoration algorithm is developed in order to solve optimal control problems involving a functional subject to differential constraints, nondifferential constraints, and terminal constraints. The algorithm is composed of a sequence of cycles, each cycle consisting of two phases, a conjugate gradient phase and a restoration phase. The conjugate gradient phase involves a single iteration and is designed to decrease the value of the functional while satisfying the constraints to first order. The restoration phase involves one or more iterations and is designed to restore the constraints to a predetermined accuracy, while the norm of the variations of the variations of the control and the parameter is minimized, subject to the linearized constraints. The sequential conjugate gradient-restoration algorithm is characterized by two main properties. First, at the end of each cycle, the trajectory satisfies the constraints to a given accuracy. Second, the conjugate gradient stepsize and the restoration stepsize can be chosen so that the restoration phase preserves the descent property of the conjugate gradient phase.

Book First Order and Second Order Numerical Methods for Optimal Control Problems

Download or read book First Order and Second Order Numerical Methods for Optimal Control Problems written by A. Miele and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lecture summarizes recent advances in the area of numerical methods for optimal control problems, with particular emphasis on the work performed by the Aero-Astronautics Group of Rice University. The following basic problems are considered; problems with general boundary conditions, problem with nondifferential constraints, and problem with multiple subarcs. First-order alogrithms are reviewed, in particular, the sequential ordinary gradient-restoration algorithm and the sequential conjugate gradient-restoration algorithm. Second-order algorithms are also reviewed, in particular, the modified quasilinearization algorithm. Here, the optimal initial choice of the multipliers is discussed. Transformation techniques are presented by means of which a great variety of problems of optimal control can be reduced to one of the formulations presented. Specifically, the following topics are treated; time normalization, free initial state, problems with bounded control, problems with bounded state, and Chebyshev minimax problems. (Author).
