Optimal open/closed-loop control for systems with distributed parameter
An optimal control problem for multi-dimensional structures described by a system of partial differential equations is considered. A combined open- and closed-loop mechanism is incorporated into the formulation of the problem, and a general method of solution is presented. Two performance indices are introduced and minimized with respect to the open-loop control functions and the closed-loop control parameters. The optimality condition for the open-loop control is derived in form of the integral equations by using the methods of eigenfunction expansion and variational calculus. The proposed approach is applied to a shear deformable beam excited by an initial disturbance.
