Abstract
ABSTRACT This study is aimed to relate nonlinear infinite-horizon optimal control problems (NLIHOCPs) with open-loop information. The difficulties of solving the two-point boundary value problems (TPBVPs) arising from NLIHOCPs can be assigned to the nonlinearity of differential equations, the combination of split boundary conditions, and how the transversality conditions in infinite-horizon are treated. In this paper, we propose a combined quasilinearization method (QLM) with the exponential Bernstein functions (EBFs) for solving nonlinear TPBVPs on the semi-infinite domain. First, the QLM is used to reduce the nonlinear TPBVP to a sequence of linear differential equations. Then, a collocation method based on the EBFs is utilized to find the approximate solution of the resulting linear differential equations. By applying the EBFs, the transversality conditions for TPBVP on the semi-infinite domain are satisfied. The convergence of the QLM + EBFs is proved. Some numerical experiments are performed to confirm the validity of the proposed computational scheme.
