Optimal Control Course
from 4 to 360h flexible workload
valid certificate in your country

What will I learn?

Gain expertise in modelling one-dimensional vertical rocket dynamics, setting practical constraints, and examining phase-space patterns for secure and fuel-saving landings. Employ Pontryagin’s Minimum Principle, construct Hamiltonians, manage costates, solve boundary value challenges via indirect shooting and direct transcription methods, and explore real-world adaptations with implementation tips for actual systems.

Elevify advantages

Develop skills

  • Develop 1D rocket models by deriving, scaling, and applying constraints to vertical dynamics.
  • Create fuel-optimal landing solutions by formulating and rapidly resolving Pontryagin control issues.
  • Examine bang-bang control mechanisms, determining switch timings and phase-space paths.
  • Implement numerical optimal control methods like shooting, collocation, and mesh refinement.
  • Convert theoretical concepts into practical hardware solutions addressing delays, noise, limits, and safety.
