An important stage in the solution of active vibration control in flexible structures is the optimal placement of sensors and actuators. In many works, the positioning of these devices in systems governed for parameter ...

The scope of this work is to optimize the charging of electric vehicles (EVs) in a controlled environment. The method uses a linear optimization technique, which determines the electrical power that will be delivered to ...

ABSTRACT This paper considers a class of optimal control problems on time scales described by dynamic equations on time scales. For this class, the states are absolutely continuous. We have established sufficient conditions ...

A weak maximal principle for minimax optimal control problems with mixed state-control equality and inequality constraints is provided. In the formulation of the minimax control problem we allow for parameter uncertainties ...

Propõe-se um modelo de tráfego rodoviário macroscópico semi contínuo baseado no “Cell Transmission Model”. O modelo incorpora o limite de velocidade como parâmetro variável. Além disso, é proposto o emprego de algoritmos ...

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 ...
