Optimal Control Systems
More about the book
The theory of optimal control systems has evolved significantly since the 1960s, with numerous texts available at varying levels of complexity. However, many beginner-oriented books are often laden with intricate theorems and neglect essential topics necessary for a comprehensive understanding of optimal control. This work offers an accessible yet thorough exploration of the subject, balancing mathematical rigor with practicality. It serves as a solid bridge between traditional optimization through calculus of variations and modern optimal control, addressing both continuous-time and discrete-time systems to equip students with a robust understanding of both methods. Notably, each topic or problem is accompanied by a summary table that outlines the problem and provides a step-by-step solution. Additionally, students will gain hands-on experience with industry-standard MATLAB and SIMULINK software, including the Control System and Symbolic Math Toolboxes. With diverse applications in fields ranging from power engineering to medicine, a foundation in optimal control systems is crucial for engineers. This clear and concise presentation is well-suited for graduate-level courses and as a quick reference for practicing engineers.
