Mesh Effects in the Numerical Solution of Optimal Control Problems

10:30 AM-12:30 PM
Omni Ballroom A

Recently, much has been learned concerning the effects of the discretization mesh on the convergence of algorithms and on approximation error in optimal control. The speakers in this minisymposium will discuss ongoing research in this area.

10:30 Discrete Approximations in Optimal Control

Asen L. Dontchev and William W. Hager, Organizers

11:00 Augmented Lagrangian-SQP Techniques and their Approximations

Stefan Volkwein, University of Graz, Austria

11:30 The Euler Approximation in State Constrained Optimal Control

A. L. Dontchev and William W. Hager, Organizers

12:00 Analysis and Computations in an Alternative Framework for Constrained Bolza Problems

Joseph C. Dunn, North Carolina State University
