Abstract: | This paper deals with an isoperimetric optimal control problem for nonlinear control-affine systems with periodic boundary conditions. As it was shown previously, the candidates for optimal controls for this problem can be obtained within the class of bang-bang input functions. We consider a parametrization of these inputs in terms of switching times. The control-affine system under consideration is transformed into a driftless system by assuming that the controls possess properties of a partition of unity. Then the problem of constructing periodic trajectories is studied analytically by applying the Fliess series expansion over a small time horizon. We propose analytical results concerning the relation between the boundary conditions and switching parameters for an arbitrary number of switchings. These analytical results are applied to a mathematical model of non-isothermal chemical reactions. It is shown that the proposed control strategies can be exploited to improve the reaction performance in comparison to the steady-state operation mode. |
