Optimal control problems, which form a central pillar in applied mathematics and engineering, involve determining control strategies that steer physical, economic or biological systems to achieve a ...

Optimal control theory provides a mathematical framework for determining control strategies that optimise the performance of dynamic systems. In many practical settings, systems display abrupt changes ...

Existing ship control systems using Model Predictive Control for Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) do not consider the various forces acting on ships in real sea conditions. Addressing this gap ...

The proposed disturbance rejection optimal guidance method has two key components: real-time nominal trajectory generation and robust neighboring optimal feedback control. Correspondingly, this ...
