This paper surveys recent results in the field of optimal control of hybrid and switched
systems. We first summarize results that use different problem formulations and then explore …

This paper surveys some of the recent progresses on computational methods for optimal
control of switched systems. A general model of switched system that allows externally …

At publication, The Control Handbook immediately became the definitive resource that
engineers working with modern control systems required. Among its many accolades, that …

This paper presents a new approach for solving optimal control problems for switched
systems. We focus on problems in which a prespecified sequence of active subsystems is …

This paper considers an optimal control problem for a switching system. For solving this
problem we do not make any assumptions about the number of switches nor about the mode …

engineers working with modern control systems required. Among its many accolades, that …

This note considers the problem of determining optimal switching times at which mode
transitions should occur in multimodal, hybrid systems. It derives a simple formula for the …

This paper deals with optimal control of switched piecewise affine autonomous systems,
where the objective is to minimize a performance index over an infinite time horizon. We …

In this chapter, we propose a switched autonomous system to model constantly fed-batch
fermentation. Taking the switching instants as the control function, we present an optimal …

The switched system contains several subsystems with different dynamics, of which the
optimal control is to establish a switching law that determines the sequence of subsystems …
