✦ Synopsis

In this paper, we consider a class of optimal control problems which is governed by nonsmooth functional inequality constraints involving convolution. First, we transform it into an equivalent optimal control problem with smooth functional inequality constraints at the expense of doubling the dimension of the control variables. Then, using the Chebyshev polynomial approximation of the control variables, we obtain an semi-infinite quadratic programming problem. At last, we use the dual parametrization technique to solve the problem.

A special class of linear dynamical systems acted upon by controls and bounded disturbances is considered. It is assumed that the disturbances are due to an error in the control implementation; there are no disturbances in the case of the zero control, but the range of the disturbances increases wit

The optimal control problem with general constraints is considered. This involves the calculation of the open loop control input as a function of time such that an objective function is minimised and the constraints are satisfied. The approach taken in this paper is to discretise the control input b

## Abstract In this paper we consider a general class of optimal control problems involving integrodifferential equations. The integral equation component is a Volterra integral equation with convolution kernel. A method is proposed to approximate the kernel which gives rise to a system of ordinary
