A survey on the theory of maximum principle for state-constrained optimal control problems
is presented. The focus is on such issues as regularity and controllability conditions, non …

An important type of basic functions named basis spline (B-spline) is provided a simpler
approximate and more stable approach to solve problems in optimal control. Furthermore, it …

This article concerns a class of time-optimal state constrained control problems with
dynamics defined by an ordinary differential equation involving a three-dimensional steady …

This article concerns some optimal control problems arising in the operation of drone
systems to support search and rescue operations in the aftermath of disasters, such as …

This work is aimed at the study of optimal control problems with state constraints of higher
order. Such problems are due to multi-level dynamical control systems of triangle-type which …

The problem of maximizing the horizontal coordinate of a point moving in a vertical plane
under the action of gravity forces, viscous friction, and the interrelated Brachistochrone …

The time-optimal motion of a three-wheeled mobile robot with the front-wheel drive in the
presence of a state constraint given by the unit circle is investigated. The poor property of …

In this letter, necessary conditions of optimality in the Gamkrelidze's form for a state
constrained optimal control problem whose dynamics are given by a differential inclusion …

This work is aimed at the study of optimal control problems with higher-order state
constraints. These are due to multi-level dynamical control systems of triangle-type which …

In this article, a simplified mathematical model is presented to depict the process of
collecting ocean debris. The responsible autonomous vehicles for transporting the trash are …
