Distributed Optimal Control

We use a hybrid local meshless method to solve the distributed optimal control problem of a system governed by parabolic partial differential equations with Caputo fractional time derivatives of order α ∈ (0, 1]. The presented meshless method is based on the linear combination of moving least squares and radial basis functions in the same compact support, this method will change between interpolation and approximation. The aim of this paper is to solve the system of coupled fractional partial differential equations, with necessary and sufficient conditions, for fractional distributed optimal control problems using a combination of moving least squares and radial basis functions. To keep matters simple, the problem has been considered in the one-dimensional case, however the techniques can be employed for both the two- and three-dimensional cases. Several test problems are employed and results of numerical experiments are presented. The obtained results confirm the acceptable accuracy of the proposed method.

This paper is concerned with optimal control of a class of distributed-parameter systems governed by first-order, quasilinear hyperbolic partial differential equations that arise in optimal control problems of many physical systems such as fluids dynamics and elastodynamics. The distributed system is controlled via a forced nonlinear periodic boundary condition that describes a boundary control action. Further, the periodic boundary control is subject to a dynamic constraint imposed by a lumped-parameter system governed by ordinary differential equations that model actuator dynamics. The partial differential equations are thus coupled with the ordinary differential equations via the periodic boundary condition. Optimality of this coupled system is investigated using variational principles to seek an adjoint formulation of the optimal control problem. The results are then applied to solve a feedback control problem of the Mach number in a wind tunnel.

The optimal control problem for a broad class of distributed parameter systems defined by vector parabolic partial differential equations is considered. The problem is solved by discretizing the spatial domain and then treating the (large) resultant set of ordinary differential equations as a set of independent subsystems. The subsystems are determined by decomposition of the total system into lower-dimensional problems and the necessary conditions for optimality of the overall system are then satisfied by an iterative procedure. With this treatment, the optimal control problem can be solved for larger systems (or finer spatial discretizations) than would otherwise be feasible. An example is given for a system described by a nonlinear parabolic partial differential equation in one space dimension.
