Necessary conditions of optimality in the form of a maximum principle are derived for state constrained optimal control problems with infinite horizon. A notable feature of our optimality conditions is the derivation of ...

This work is devoted to introduce a new sufficient optimality condition for infinite horizon optimal control problems. It is shown that normal extremal processes are optimal under this new condition, termed as maximum-pr ...

In this paper we consider nonautonomous optimal control problems of infinite horizon type, whose control actions are given by L-1-functions. We verify that the value function is locally Lipschitz. The equivalence between ...

In the MPC literature, stability is usually assured under the assumption that the state is measured. Since the closed-loop system may be nonlinear because of the constraints, it is not possible to apply the separation ...

We study the properties of the rolling horizon and the approximate rolling horizon procedures for the case of two-person zero-sum discounted semi-Markov games with infinite horizon, when the state space is a borelian set ...

Several MPC applications implement a control strategy in which some of the system outputs are controlled within specified ranges or zones, rather than at fixed set points [J.M. Maciejowski, Predictive Control with Constraints, ...

A method to control a heat-exchanger network (HEN) is presented where both, the control objective and the economic objective are taken into account. It is assumed that we have a two-level structure in which the steady state ...
