This lecture provides an overview of optimal control theory. Beginning with a review of optimization, we introduce the notion of Lagrange multipliers and provide a summary of the Pontryagin's maximum principle.
Lecture Outline
- Introduction: two degree of freedom design and trajectory generation
- Review of optimization: necessary conditions for extrema, with and without constraints
- Optimal control: Pontryagin Maximum Principle
- Examples: bang-bang control and Caltech ducted fan (if time)
