Fuel Cell Hybrid Vehicles (FCHVs) have already become the subject of major interest among automotive industry as well as power management strategies of FCHVs, as the fuel economy of FCHVs depends on them. There are several types of power management strategies of FCHVs that have been developed to improve the fuel economy of FCHVs. Among them, optimal control theory is applied to this study. A problem is defined and its objective is to minimize the energy consumption of an FCHV and to find the optimal trajectories of powertrain parameters during driving. Necessary conditions for the optimal control are introduced and the simulation results of constant costate are compared to that of variable costate in order to prove that the variable costate can be replaced with the constant costate.

In this paper we consider an optimal control system described by n-dimensional heat equation with a thermal source. Thus problem is to find an optimal control which puts the system in a finite time T, into a stationary regime and to minimize a general objective function. Here we assume there is no constraints on control. This problem is reduced to a moment problem. We modify the moment problem into one consisting of the minimization of a positive linear functional over a set of Radon measures and we show that there is an optimal measure corresponding to the optimal control. The above optimal measure approximated by a finite combination of atomic measures. This construction gives rise to a finite dimensional linear programming problem, where its solution can be used to determine the optimal combination of atomic measures. Then by using the solution of the above linear programming problem we find a piecewise-constant optimal control function which is an approximate control for the original optimal control problem. Finally we obtain piecewise-constant optimal control for two examples of heat equations with a thermal source in one-dimensional.

In this work, we formulated a mathematical model for divorce in marriage and extended in to an optimal control model. Firstly, we qualitatively established the model positivity and boundedness. Also we saw sensitivity analysis of the model and identified the positive and negative indices parameters. An optimal control model were developed by incorporating three time dependent control strategies (couple relationship education, reducing getting married too young & consulting separators to renew their marriage) on the deterministic model. The Pontryagin's maximum principle were used for the derivation of necessary conditions of the optimal control problem. Finally, with Newton's forward and backward sweep method numerical simulation were performed on optimality system by considering four integrated strategies. So that we reached to a result that using all three strategies simultaneously (the strategy D) is an optimal control in order to effectively control marriage divorce over a specified period of time. From this we conclude that, policymakers and stakeholders should use the indicated control strategy at a time in order to fight against Divorce in a population.

In this study, the equations of motion of a rigid rotor supported by magnetic bearings are derived via Hamilton's principle, and transformed to a state-space form for control purpose. The optimal motion control of rotor magnetic bearing system based on the LQR(linear quadratic regulator) theory is addressed. New schemes related to the selection of the state weighting matrix Q and the control weighting matrix R involved in the quadratic functional to be minimized are proposed. And the robust control of the system with an LMI(linear matrix inequality) based H$_{\infty}$ theory is dealt with in this paper. Loop shapings of TFM (transfer function matrix) are used to increase the performance of control capability of the system. The control abilities of LQR and H$_{\infty}$ controller are compared by simulation and experimental tests and show that the capability of H$_{\infty}$ controller is superior to that of LQR.

In this paper we shall study moving boundary problems, and we introduce an approach for solving a wide range of them by using calculus of variations and optimization. First, we transform the problem equivalently into an optimal control problem by defining an objective function and artificial control functions. By using measure theory, the new problem is modified into one consisting of the minimization of a linear functional over a set of Radon measures; then we obtain an optimal measure which is then approximated by a finite combination of atomic measures and the problem converted to an infinite-dimensional linear programming. We approximate the infinite linear programming to a finite-dimensional linear programming. Then by using the solution of the latter problem we obtain an approximate solution for moving boundary function on specific time. Furthermore, we show the path of moving boundary from initial state to final state.

The modelling and controller design of the EMV(electro-magnetic valve) for vehicle engine are considered in this paper. For the analysis and controller design, the governing equation of the EMV system is derived. For a good performance of the system, the start control, the holding control and the swing control are included in the controller design of the EMV system. In order to reduce landing speed of the valve, the on-time delay control which mainly come from the optimal control theory is employed. In order to reduce the power consumption of the system, the pick-up and hold operation has been used for the magnetic coil. The simulation and experimental results are presented to show the validity of the control method.

In this study a practical guidance law for missile guidance loop is established by considering the missile dynamics. Assuming the attitude controlled missile, several optimal guidance laws according to missile dynamical characteristics are derived by applying the optimal control theory and an effective guidance law in practical point is presented.

The optimal control theory is applied to the design of a digital control system for a nuclear reactor. A linear dynamic model obtained at 85% of rated power and a quadratic performance index are used. A minimal order observer used in cascade with the feedback controller is suggested as a state estimator. The total reactor power control is studied in the range of 80% to 100% of rated power, with the steady state and load-following control. The control algorithm considered is suitable for implementation in direct digital control.

This paper studies the properties of solutions of the Riccati equation arising from the quadratic optimal control problem of the general damped second order system. Using the semigroup theory, we establish the weak differential characterization of the Riccati equation for a general class of the second order distributed systems with arbitrary damping terms.

Finite element approximation solutions of the optimal control problems for stochastic Stokes equations with the forcing term perturbed by white noise are considered. Error estimates are established for the fully coupled optimality system using Brezzi-Rappaz-Raviart theory. Numerical examples are also presented to examine our theoretical results.
