Host-Parasitoid Dynamics and Biological Control of the Sugarcane Borer
Fredson Aguiar, M. Soledad Aronna, Roberto Guglielmi +2
We investigate biological pest control strategies for the sugarcane borer Diatraea saccharalis through the combined action of two parasitoid species: the egg parasitoid Trichogramm…
A structured model of vector-borne disease with within-host viral load and antibody dynamics
Paulo Amorim, Maria Soledad Aronna, Debora de Oliveira Medeiros
We present an epidemiological model for vector-borne diseases that includes within-host viral load and antibody dynamics using structured transport equations. By incorporating the…
Average Optimal Control of Uncertain Control-Affine Systems
M. Soledad Aronna, Gabriel de Lima Monteiro, Oscar Sierra Fonseca
This work studies optimal control problems of systems with uncertain, probabilistically distributed parameters to optimize average performance. Known as Riemann-Stieltjes, average,…
Singular Arcs on Average Optimal Control-Affine Problems
Maria Soledad Aronna, Gabriel de Lima Monteiro, Oscar Sierra
In this paper we address optimal control problems in which the system parameters follow a probability distribution, and the optimization is based on average performance. These prob…
Bang-Bang Optimal Control of Vaccination in Metapopulation Epidemics with Linear Cost Structures
Lucas Machado Moschen, Maria Soledad Aronna
This paper investigates optimal vaccination strategies in a metapopulation epidemic model. We consider a linear cost to better capture operational considerations, such as the total…
On second order conditions for singular optimal control of port-Hamiltonian systems
M. Soledad Aronna, Volker Mehrmann
We study nonlinear singular optimal control problems of port-Hamil-tonian (descriptor) systems. We employ general control-affine cost functionals that include as a special case the…
