governors.dvi ON GOVERNORS J.C. MAXWELL From the Proceedings of the Royal Society, No.100, 1868. A GOVERNOR is a part of a machine by means of which the velocity of the machine is kept nearly uniform, notwithstanding variations in the driving-power or the resistance. Most governors depend on the centrifugal force of a piece connected with a shaft of the machine. When the velocity increases, this f

1 Lecture 1: Introduction (Karl Johan) 2 Lecture 2: Calculus of variation (CoV) and the Maximum principle In this lecture, we are going to learn the maximum principle. The MP is a type of CoV, so we will first study the classical theory of CoV. Then we will try to move from the classical CoV theory to the optimal control setting, there we will immediately encounter some essential difficulties that

Consider the system ẋ = f(x, u) with cost function J(u) = φ(x(tf )) + ∫ tf 0 L(x, u)dt and boundary constraint x(tf ) ∈ M ⊆ Rn Assume f , φ and L are C1 in x.

Exercise for Optimal control – Week 1 Choose two problems to solve. Exercise 1 (Fundamental lemma of CoV). Let f be a real valued function defined on open interval (a, b) and f satisfies ∫ b a f(x)h(x)dx = 0 for all h ∈ Cc(a, b), i.e., h is continuous on (a, b) and its support, i.e., the closure of {x : h(x) ̸= 0} is contained in (a, b). 1) Show that f is identically zero if f is continuous. If f
