The optimal controls for various types of performance criteria are investigated for second-order systems by means of the Pontryagin’s Maximum Principle. Optimal control solutions for several examples are shown. The results presented show widely different modes of control depending upon the performance criteria, and also indicate a possibility of closed loop control. The methods used in the various solutions may be extended to other performance criteria and systems.

This note is focused on a bounded control problem with boundary conditions. The control domain need not be convex. First-order necessary condition for optimality is obtained in the customary form of the maximum principle, and second-order necessary condition for optimality of singular controls is derived on the basis of second-order increment formula using the method of increments along with linearization approach.

The Maximum Principle

This paper is concerned with obtaining stress estimates for the problem of axisymmetric torsion of thin elastic shells of revolution subject to self-equilibrated end loads. The results are obtained in the form of explicit pointwise stress bounds exhibiting an exponential decay with distance from the ends, thus supplying a quantitative characterization of Saint-Venant’s principle for this problem. In contrast to arguments using energy inequalities, here we apply a technique, recently developed by the authors, based on the maximum principle for second-order uniformly elliptic equations.
