We consider free time optimal control problems with pointwise set control constraints u(t) ∈ U(t). Here we derive necessary conditions of optimality for those problem where the set U(t) is defined by equality and inequality ...

In this article we introduce the concept of MP-pseudoinvexity for general nonlinear impulsive optimal control problems whose dynamics are specified by measure driven control equations. This is a general paradigm in that, ...

This chapter studies a singular case of Optimal Control Problems(OCPs) governed by a class of switched control systems. We proposea new mathematical formalism for this type of switched dynamic systemsand study OCPs with a ...

It is well-known in optimal control theory that the maximum principle, in general, furnishes only necessary optimality conditions for an admissible process to be an optimal one. It is also well-known that if a process ...

This article presents and discusses a maximum principle for infinite horizon constrained optimal control problems with a cost functional depending on the state at the final time. The main feature of these optimality ...
