Optimal Control Course

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

What will I learn?

Gain expertise in modeling 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 problems via indirect shooting and direct transcription methods, and explore real-world applications with implementation tips for actual systems.

Elevify advantages

Develop skills

  • Develop 1D rocket models by deriving, scaling, and applying constraints to vertical dynamics for effective control.
  • Create fuel-optimal landing solutions by formulating and rapidly solving control problems based on Pontryagin’s principle.
  • Examine bang-bang control strategies, calculating switching times and plotting phase-space paths accurately.
  • Implement numerical optimal control techniques including shooting methods, collocation, and mesh refinement for real applications.
  • Bridge theoretical concepts to physical hardware, addressing delays, noise, operational limits, and safety margins.
