Abstract:
In this paper we study optimal control problems with the control variable appearing linearly. A novel method for optimization with respect to the switching times of controls containing both bang-bang and singular arcs is presented. This method transforms the control problem into a finite-dimensional optimization problem by reformulating the control problem as a multi-stage optimization problem. The optimal control problem is partitioned as several stages, with each stage corresponding to a particular control arc. A control vector parameterization approach is applied to convert the control problem to a static nonlinear programming (NLP) problem. The control profiles and stage lengths act as decision variables. Based on the Pontryagin maximal principle, a multi-stage adjoint system is constructed to calculate the gradients required by the NLP solvers. Two examples are studied to demonstrate the effectiveness of this strategy.
