The control parameterization method is a popular numerical technique for solving optimal
control problems. The main idea of control parameterization is to discretize the control space …

This article considers the optimal control problem for path-constrained switched systems
with guaranteed feasibility. First, a method is proposed to reduce continuous path …

We consider an optimal control problem with dynamics that switch between several
subsystems of nonlinear differential equations. Each subsystem is assumed to satisfy a …

A switched system is a dynamic system that operates by switching between different
subsystems or modes. Such systems exhibit both continuous and discrete characteristics—a …

Dynamic optimization is one of the model-based adaptive reinforcement learning methods,
which has been widely used in industrial systems with switching mechanisms. This article …

In this paper, we formulate a new system, named by sandwich control system with impulse
time windows. The present system is a cyclic control system, composed of three parts in a …

In this paper, we consider a system that evolves by switching between several subsystems
of ordinary differential equations. The switching mechanism is this system induces an …

We consider a general nonlinear time-delay system in which the input signal is piecewise-
constant. Such systems arise in a wide range of industrial applications, including …

In this thesis, we develop numerical methods for solving five nonstandard optimal control
problems. The main idea of each method is to reformulate the optimal control problem as, or …

In this thesis, We propose new computational algorithms and methods for solving four
classes of constrained optimization and optimal control problems. In Chapter 1, we present a …
