Abstract

Several techniques are examined for optimal control of hyperbolic and parabolic distributed-parameter systems. These include a direct search on the performance index and a method of steepest ascent based on a maximum principle analogous to that of Pontryagin for lumped-parameter systems. Extensive numerical results suggest that for the various physical systems investigated valid solutions can be obtained.
