The analytical basis and calculations for second-order expansions about discrete-parameter approximations of optimal trajectories are described in order to facilitate approximation of neighboring optimal control feedback gains. The scope of the prese

Several algorithms based on the multiplier or augmented penalty function method for minimizing a function subject to equality constraints are surveyed and compared numerically. These methods employ an approximation of the Lagrange multiplier to incre

This work features the application of an optimal control algorithm to a new class of continuous one-dimensional structural design problems. A sandwich beam of rectangular cross-section is considered. It has a variable-thickness core and two equal var

Sequential quadratic programming is used to solve several minimum-fuel flight path optimization problems for a point-mass aircraft flying in a vertical plane. Each optimal control problem involves two control functions: a ''steering'' control and a '

Three augmented penalty function algorithms are tested and compared with an ordinary penalty function algorithm for two demonstration optimal control problems. Although the augmented penalty function is quite helpful in solving control problems with

An interesting refinement scheme suggested by Mehra (1909) for use with the conjugate gradient algorithm is modified and applied to both finite and infinite dimensional optimization problems in an attempt to improve the convergence rate of the algori

The Davidon method as extended by Tripathi and Narendra [1], [2] is applied to optimal control problems with terminal state constraints adjoined to the cost functional as penalty functions. The results of two numerical examples indicate that this alg
