Hamiltonian (control Theory) - Notation and Problem Statement

Notation and Problem Statement

A control is to be chosen so as to minimize the objective function

$J(u)=\Psi(x(T))+\int^T_0 L(x,u,t) dt$

where is the system state, which evolves according to the state equations

$\dot{x}=f(x,u,t) \qquad x(0)=x_0 \quad t \in$

and the control must satisfy the constraints

$a \le u(t) \le b \quad t \in$

Famous quotes containing the words problem and/or statement:

“The problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color-line—the relation of the darker to the lighter races of men in Asia and Africa, in America and the islands of the sea. It was a phase of this problem that caused the Civil War.”
—W.E.B. (William Edward Burghardt)

“He has the common feeling of his profession. He enjoys a statement twice as much if it appears in fine print, and anything that turns up in a footnote ... takes on the character of divine revelation.”
—Margaret Halsey (b. 1910)
