Optimal control problems in differential equations concern the formulation and solution of problems where the objective is to determine a control function that optimises a given performance criterion, ...

Optimal control problems and variational inequalities form a rich interdisciplinary area that bridges the disciplines of mathematical analysis, numerical methods and engineering applications. At its ...

Dynamic Programming and Optimal Control is offered within DMAVT and attracts in excess of 300 students per year from a wide variety of disciplines. It is an integral part of the Robotics, System and ...

Differential equations and systems analysis. Undergraduate controls and/or signal processing course would satisfy this requirement. A graduate-level systems course is also helpful, but not necessary.

Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a modern feedback law that generates the control signal by solving an optimal control problem at each sampling time. This approach is capable of maximizing a certain ...
