Adaptive mesh refinement method for optimal control using nonsmoothness detection and mesh size reduction |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
An adaptive mesh refinement method for solving optimal control problems is developed. The method employs orthogonal collocation at Legendre–Gauss–Radau points, and adjusts both the mesh size and the degree of the approximating polynomials in the refinement process. A previously derived convergence rate is used to guide the refinement process. The method brackets discontinuities and improves solution accuracy by checking for large increases in higher-order derivatives of the state. In regions between discontinuities, where the solution is smooth, the error in the approximation is reduced by increasing the degree of the approximating polynomial. On mesh intervals where the error tolerance has been met, mesh density may be reduced either by merging adjacent mesh intervals or lowering the degree of the approximating polynomial. Finally, the method is demonstrated on two examples from the open literature and its performance is compared against a previously developed adaptive method. |
