A robust method for optimal control problems governed by system of Fredholm integral equations in mechanics

چکیده مقاله

This essay considers an optimal control problem (OCP) governed by a system of Fredholm integral equations (FIE). In this paper, collocation approach with utilizing Lagrange polynomials is introduced to transform the OCP into a nonlinear programming problem (NLP). An efficient optimization method in Mathematica software is utilized to solve NLP. The convergence analysis is discussed, which show the theoretical structure behind the propounded technique under some assumptions. In this essay, computational outcomes are given to demonstrate the adaptability, forthrightness, and relationship of the calculations manufactured. A practical real-world problem involving hanging chain in classical mechanic is also dissolved utilizing the approach proposed. © 2023 Authors. All rights reserved.
