What will I learn?
Dis Optimal Control Course teach yuh how fi model 1D vertical rocket dynamics, set real constraints, an analyze phase-space fi safe, fuel-efficient landing. Yuh apply Pontryagin’s Minimum Principle, build Hamiltonians, work wid costates, solve boundary value problems usin indirect shootin an direct transcription, an wrap up wid practical extensions fi real systems.
