Description

Master complex mathematical processes with Optimization and Optimal Control in a Nutshell from the Engineering Optimization series by Springer. This book provides a concise guide to the optimization process and optimal control, utilizing practical examples and simulations to support self-learning and comprehension. Starting with fundamental function optimization and constraint inclusion, the text moves into functional optimization via the calculus of variations. Readers will explore the development of optimal controls for continuous-time, linear, open-loop systems using Lagrangian and Pontryagin-Hamiltonian methods. The content also covers how to introduce end-point conditions in both time and state, as well as closed-loop optimal control for linear systems with a quadratic cost function. It is an essential resource for those studying electrical engineering and advanced mathematical methods.
