Reliable Solution to Dynamic Optimization Problems using Integrated Residual Regularized Direct Collocation
Yuanbo Nie, Eric C. Kerrigan
Direct collocation is a widely used method for solving dynamic optimization problems (DOPs), but its implementation simplicity and computational efficiency are limited for challeng…
Tracking-in-range Formulations for Numerical Optimal Control
Nikilesh Ramesh, Eric C. Kerrigan, Yuanbo Nie
In contrast to set-point tracking which aims to reduce the tracking error between the tracker and the reference, tracking-in-range problems only focus on whether the tracker is wit…
Joint Optimization of Transmission and Propulsion in UAV-Assisted Communication Networks
Omar J. Faqir, Eric C. Kerrigan, Deniz Gündüz +1
The communication energy in a wireless network of mobile autonomous agents should be defined to include the propulsion energy as well as the transmission energy used to facilitate…
External Constraint Handling for Solving Optimal Control Problems with Simultaneous Approaches and Interior Point Methods
Yuanbo Nie, Eric C. Kerrigan
Inactive constraints do not contribute to the solution of an optimal control problem, but increase the problem size and burden the numerical computations. We present a novel strate…
