Aim:
Optimal control consists of theory and methods for controlling dynamical systems so that a mathematical criterion is minimized. The course aims at giving basic theory and engineering oriented computational methods in the area. After taking the course the participants are expected to be able to:
- Analyze and synthesize optimal open loop control signals using the Maximum principle.
- Analyze and synthesize optimal feedback laws using the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation.
- Use numerical software to solve optimal control problems.
- Describe the connections between optimal control and other optimization approaches.
