Stability in stochastic programming with recourse-estimated parameters

In this paper, stability of the optimal solution of stochastic programs with recourse with respect to parameters of the given distribution of random coefficients is studied. Provided that the set of admissible solutions is defined by equality constraints only, asymptotical normality of the optimal solution follows by standard methods. If nonnegativity constraints are taken into account the problem is solved under assumption of strict complementarity known from the theory of nonlinear programming (Theorem 1). The general results are applied to the simple recourse problem with random right-hand sides under various assumptions on the underlying distribution (Theorems 2–4).

Wavelet Collocation Method for Optimal Control Problems

A Haar wavelet technique is discussed as a method for discretizing the nonlinear system equations for optimal control problems. The technique is used to transform the state and control variables into nonlinear programming (NLP) parameters at collocation points. A nonlinear programming solver can then be used to solve optimal control problems that are rather general in form. Here, general Bolza optimal control problems with state and control constraints are considered. Examples of two kinds of optimal control problems, continuous and discrete, are solved. The results are compared to those obtained by using other collocation methods.

A Stochastic Algorithm for Fault Inverse Problems in Elastic Half Space with Proof of Convergence

A general stochastic algorithm for solving mixed linear and nonlinear problems was introduced in [11]. We show in this paper how it can be used to solve the fault inverse problem, where a planar fault in elastic half-space and a slip on that fault have to be reconstructed from noisy surface displacement measurements. With the parameter giving the plane containing the fault denoted by $m$ and the regularization parameter for the linear part of the inverse problem denoted by $C$,both modeled as random variables, we derive a formula for the posterior marginal of $m.$ Modeling $C$ as a random variable allows to sweep through a wide range of possible values which was shown to be superior to selecting a fixed value [11]. We prove that this posterior marginal of $m$ is convergent as the number of measurement points and the dimension of the space for discretizing slips increase. Simply put, our proof only assumes that the regularized discrete error functional for processing measurements relates to an order 1 quadrature rule and that the union of the finite-dimensional spaces for discretizing slips is dense. Our proof relies on trace class operator theory to show that an adequate sequence of determinants is uniformly bounded. We also explain how our proof can be extended to a whole class of inverse problems, as long as some basic requirements are met. Finally, we show numerical simulations that illustrate the numerical convergence of our algorithm.     

Variance-constrained dissipative observer-based control for a class of nonlinear stochastic systems with degraded measurements

This paper is concerned with the variance-constrained dissipative control problem for a class of stochastic nonlinear systems with multiple degraded measurements, where the degraded probability for each sensor is governed by an individual random variable satisfying a certain probabilistic distribution over a given interval. The purpose of the problem is to design an observer-based controller such that, for all possible degraded measurements, the closed-loop system is exponentially mean-square stable and strictly dissipative, while the individual steady-state variance is not more than the pre-specified upper bound constraints. A general framework is established so that the required exponential mean-square stability, dissipativity as well as the variance constraints can be easily enforced. A sufficient condition is given for the solvability of the addressed multiobjective control problem, and the desired observer and controller gains are characterized in terms of the solution to a convex optimization problem that can be easily solved by using the semi-definite programming method. Finally, a numerical example is presented to show the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed algorithm.     

Pseudospectral Chebyshev Optimal Control of Constrained Nonlinear Dynamical Systems

A pseudospectral method for generating optimal trajectories of linear and nonlinear constrained dynamic systems is proposed. The method consists of representing the solution of the optimal control problem by an mth degree interpolating polynomial, using Chebyshev nodes, and then discretizing the problem using a cell-averaging technique. The optimal control problem is thereby transformed into an algebraic nonlinear programming problem. Due to its dynamic nature, the proposed method avoids many of the numerical difficulties typically encountered in solving standard optimal control problems. Furthermore, for discontinuous optimal control problems, we develop and implement a Chebyshev smoothing procedure which extracts the piecewise smooth solution from the oscillatory solution near the points of discontinuities. Numerical examples are provided, which confirm the convergence of the proposed method. Moreover, a comparison is made with optimal solutions obtained by closed-form analysis and/or other numerical methods in the literature.     

A penalty function-based random search algorithm for optimal control of switched systems with stochastic constraints and its application in automobile test-driving with gear shifts

Practical industrial process is usually a dynamic process including uncertainty. Stochastic constraints can be used for industrial process modeling, when system sate and/or control input constraints cannot be strictly satisfied. Thus, optimal control of switched systems with stochastic constraints can be available to address practical industrial process problems with different modes. In general, obtaining an analytical solution of the optimal control problem is usually very difficult due to the discrete nature of the switching law and the complexity of stochastic constraints. To obtain a numerical solution, this problem is formulated as a constrained nonlinear parameter selection problem (CNPSP) based on a relaxation transformation (RT) technique, an adaptive sample approximation (ASA) method, a smooth approximation (SA) technique, and a control parameterization (CP) method. Following that, a penalty function-based random search (PFRS) algorithm is designed for solving the CNPSP based on a novel search rule-based penalty function (NSRPF) method and a novel random search (NRS) algorithm. The convergence results show that the proposed method is globally convergent. Finally, an optimal control problem in automobile test-driving with gear shifts (ATGS) is further extended to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method by taking into account some stochastic constraints. Numerical results show that compared with other typical methods, the proposed method is less conservative and can obtain a stable and robust performance when considering the small perturbations in initial system state. In addition, to balance the computation amount and the numerical solution accuracy, a tolerance setting method is also provided by the numerical analysis technique.     

Numerical analysis and algorithms in control and state constrained optimization with PDEs

We consider an elliptic optimal control problem with control and pointwise state constraints. The cost functional is approximated by a sequence of functionals which are obtained by discretizing the state equation with the help of linear finite elements and enforcing the state constraints in the nodes of the triangulation. The control variable is not discretized. A general error bound for control and state is obtained which forms the starting point for optimal error estimates in both in two and three space dimensions. For the numerical implementation of the discrete concept fix-point iterations or generalized Newton methods are proposed. (© 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
