Accurate Solutions to Optimal Control Problems via a Flexible Mesh and Integrated Residual Transcription
Lucian Nita, Eric C. Kerrigan
We propose joining a flexible mesh design with an integrated residual transcription in order to improve the accuracy of numerical solutions to optimal control problems. This approa…
Robust Output Feedback of Nonlinear Systems through the Efficient Solution of Min-Max Optimization Problems
Jad Wehbeh, Eric C. Kerrigan
We examine robust output feedback control of discrete-time nonlinear systems with bounded uncertainties affecting the dynamics and measurements. Specifically, we demonstrate how to…
Semi-Infinite Programs for Robust Control and Optimization: Efficient Solutions and Extensions to Existence Constraints
Jad Wehbeh, Eric C. Kerrigan
Discrete-time robust optimal control problems generally take a min-max structure over continuous variable spaces, which can be difficult to solve in practice. In this paper, we ext…
Mesh Refinement with Early Termination for Dynamic Feasibility Problems
Eduardo M. G. Vila, Eric C. Kerrigan, Paul Bruce
We propose a novel early-terminating mesh refinement strategy using an integrated residual method to solve dynamic feasibility problems. As a generalization of direct collocation,…
Tight Bounds on Polynomials and Its Application to Dynamic Optimization Problems
Eduardo M. G. Vila, Eric C. Kerrigan, Paul Bruce
This paper presents a pseudo-spectral method for Dynamic Optimization Problems (DOPs) that allows for tight polynomial bounds to be achieved via flexible sub-intervals. The propose…
