In this paper in optimal modulation controller for position control and anti-sway of container crane systems is designed by a recursive algorithm that determines the state weighting matrix Q of a linear quadratic performance. The optimal modulation controller is based on optimal control. The basic feature of the recursive algorithm is the reduction of the number of iterations as well as minimization of the calculations involved So in order to obtain a mathematical model which rep-resents the equation of motion of the trolley and load Lagrange equation is used. The optimal modulation controller has been verified and simulated to show that it is robust when a load dis-turbance is applied and a reference is changed.

This paper considers how the optimal export level is influenced by export risk, the degree of risk-averseness for exporting firms, and those firms' cost structure. In addition, export insurance is incorporated into some simple theoretical model to analyze the optimal export level. This paper applies genetic algorithm simulation to show that the exporting firms'risk-averseness do not affect the optimal export decision while export risk and cost function characteristic have relatively more significant effects on the optimal export level. Finally, our findings suggest that the most influential factor for the optimal export levels seems to be the monopoly power of exporting firms.

In this paper, a new design methodology for the optimal control of nonlinear systems described by the TS(Takagi-Sugeno) fuzzy model is proposed. First, a new theorem concerning the optimal stabilizing control of a general nonlinear dynamic system is proposed. Next, based on the proposed theorem and the inverse optimal approach, an optimal controller synthesis procedure for a TS fuzzy system is given, Also, it is shown that the optimal controller can be found by solving a linear matrix inequality problem. Finally, the proposed method is applied to the attitude control of a rigid spacecraft to demonstrate its validity.

Facing in very repidly changing environments via information technologies, we need to study and develop new information technologies in postal delivery service in Korea. We study to find the near optimal route for the better postal service between the collection centers. Optimal routing decision for the postal delivery is NP-Hard. The main purpose of this paper is to develop the near optimal simulation technique for the postal routing decision. We consider the distance between collection centers, and the quantity of post articles in the collection center to obtain the near optimal route. We use the heuristic algorithm to obtain the near optimal solution for the transportation route of postal articles. Also, we try to show the transportation route by using the map after deciding the near optimal route.

A transportation problem amy have multiple optimal solutions, if an optimal solution to the problem is degenerate. This study derives a condition, under which multiple degenerate optimal solutions exist, fro ma current degenerate optimal transportation tableau by utilizing the homogeneous equation obtained from the closed loops connecting degenerate basic variable and non-basic variables, and discusses a method of generating alternative degenerate optimal solutions and their associated transportation tableaus. Each degenerate optimal solution may not have the same range of feasibility in sensitivity analysis on supply and demand quantity due to different set of shadow prices which multiple degenerate solution have.

Fuzzy optimal control is considered. An optimal sequence of controls is sought best satisfying fuzzy constraints on the controls and fuzzy goals on the states (outputs), with a fuzzy system under control Control over a fixed and specified, implicitly specified, fuzzy, and infinite termination time is discussed. For computational efficiency a small number of reference fuzzy staters and controls is to be assumed by which fuzzy controls and stated are approximated. Optimal control policies reference fuzzy states are determined as a fuzzy relation used, via the compositional rule of inference, to derive an optimal control. Since this requires a large number of overlapping reference fuzzy controls and states implying a low computational efficiency, a small number of nonoverlapping reference fuzzy states and controls is assumed, and then interpolative reasoning is used to infer an optimal fuzzy control for a current fuzzy state.

In this paper, we presented a new algebraic iterative algorithm for the optimal control of the nonlinear systems. The algorithm is based on tow steps. The first step transforms optimal control problem into a sequence of linear optimal control problem using the quasilinearization method. In the second step, TPB(two point boundary condition problem) is solved by algebraic equations instead of differential equations using BPF(block pulse functions). The proposed algorithm is simple and efficient in computation for the optimal control of nonlinear systems. In computer simulation, the algorithm was verified through the optimal control design of Van del pole system and Volterra Predatory-prey system.

An underwater planar covering problem is studied where the coverage region consists of polygonal cells, and line sweep motion is used for coverage. In many subsea applications, sidescan sonar has become a common tool, and the sidescan sonar data is meaningful only when the sonar is moving in a straight line. This work studies the optimal line sweep coverage where the sweep paths of the cells consist of straight lines and no turn is allowed inside the cell. An optimal line sweep coverage solution is presented when the line sweep path is parallel to an edge of the cell boundary. The total time to complete the coverage task is minimized. A unique contribution of this work is that the optimal sequence of cell visits is computed in addition to the optimal line sweep paths and the optimal cell decomposition.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm for the object function used in optimal control or optimal design that sets the object function as simultaneous and then calculates the optimal value according to the Newton method. The proposed method calculates the optimal value simply using two inputs; object function and initial value, using the DDA(Direct Derivative Algorithm) which is a programmed ordinary derivative function that does not inquire the calculation of derivative function nor any inputs. And we have verified the usefulness of the algorithm for the optimal control and optimal dosing.

In this tutorial the theoretical background of LQ optimal guidance is reviewed, starting from calculus of variations. LQ optimal control is then introduced and applied to missile guidance to obtain the basic form of LQ optimal guidance laws. Extension of LQ optimal guidance methodology for handling weighted cost function, dynamic lag associated with the missile dynamics and the autopilot, constrained impact angle, and constrained impact time is also described with a brief discussion on the asymptotic properties of the optimal guidance laws. Furthermore, an introduction to polynomial guidance and generalized impactangle-control guidance, which are closed related with LQ optimal guidance, is provided to demonstrate the current status of missile guidance techniques.
