Spectral Algorithm for Pseudospectral Methods in Optimal Control (2008, background): “That is, the size of the grid has to be tied to the accuracy of the solution.”
On the convergence of nonlinear optimal control using pseudospectral methods for feedback linearizable systems (2007, methodology): “Over the last decade, the PS methods have been used to solve a broad class of industrial-strength optimal control problems, for instance, low-thrust orbit transfers [10], impulsive orbit transfers [14], ascent guidance [12, 13], etc.”
A review of pseudospectral optimal control: From theory to flight (2012, unknown): “Problem P is a standard formulation of practical engineering problems; see [12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18] and Section 5 of this paper.”
Pseudospectral Optimal Control and Its Convergence Theorems (2008, methodology): “During the 1990s, PS methods were introduced for solving optimal control problems [7, 6, 9, 8]; and since then, have gained considerable attention [10, 14, 16, 19, 30, 31].”
Optimal Feedback Control: Foundations, Examples, and Experimental Results for a New Approach (2008, background): “For example, launch vehicle ascent guidance [9,10] and orbit control [8] problems demand fuel minimality as part of their engineering feasibility requirements.”
