F-8 aircraft
State dimension: 1
Differential states: 3
Discrete control functions: 1
Interior point equalities: 6


The F-8 aircraft control problem is based on a very simple aircraft model. The control problem was introduced by Kaya and Noakes and aims at controlling an aircraft in a time-optimal way from an initial state to a terminal state.

The mathematical equations form a small-scale ODE model. The interior point equality conditions fix both initial and terminal values of the differential states.

The optimal, relaxed control function shows bang bang behavior. The problem is furthermore interesting as it should be reformulated equivalently.

Mathematical formulation

For t \in [0, T] almost everywhere the mixed-integer optimal control problem is given by


\begin{array}{llcl}
 \displaystyle \min_{x, w, T} & T \\[1.5ex]
 \mbox{s.t.} & \dot{x}_0 &=& -0.877 \; x_0 + x_2 - 0.088 \; x_0 \; x_2 + 0.47 \; x_0^2 - 0.019 \; x_1^2 - x_0^2 \; x_2 + 3.846 \; x_0^3 \\
&&&           - 0.215 \; w + 0.28 \; x_0^2 \; w + 0.47 \; x_0 \; w^2 + 0.63 \; w^3 \\ 
& \dot{x}_1 &=& x_2 \\
& \dot{x}_2 &=& -4.208 \; x_0 - 0.396 \; x_2 - 0.47 \; x_0^2 - 3.564 \; x_0^3 \\
&&&            - 20.967 \; w + 6.265 \; x_0^2 \; w + 46 \; x_0 \; w^2 + 61.4 \; w^3 \\ 
 & x(0) &=& (0.4655,0,0)^T, \\
 & x(T) &=& (0,0,0)^T, \\
 & w(t) &\in& \{-0.05236,0.05236\}.
\end{array}

x_0 is the angle of attack in radians, x_1 is the pitch angle, x_2 is the pitch rate in rad/s, and the control function w = w(t) is the tail deflection angle in radians. This model goes back to Garrard<bibref>Garrard1977</bibref>.

In the control problem, both initial and terminal values of the differential states are fixed.

Reformulation

The control w(t) is restricted to take values from a finite set only. Hence, the control problem can be reformulated equivalently to


\begin{array}{llcl}
 \displaystyle \min_{x, w, T} & T \\[1.5ex]
 \mbox{s.t.} & \dot{x}_0 &=& -0.877 \; x_0 + x_2 - 0.088 \; x_0 \; x_2 + 0.47 \; x_0^2 - 0.019 \; x_1^2 - x_0^2 \; x_2 + 3.846 \; x_0^3 \\
&&&           - \left( 0.215 \; \xi - 0.28 \; x_0^2 \; \xi - 0.47 \; x_0 \; \xi^2 - 0.63 \; \xi^3 \right) \; w \\ 
&&&           - \left( - 0.215 \; \xi + 0.28 \; x_0^2 \; \xi - 0.47 \; x_0 \; \xi^2 + 0.63 \; \xi^3 \right) \; (1 - w) \\ 
&           &=& -0.877 \; x_0 + x_2 - 0.088 \; x_0 \; x_2 + 0.47 \; x_0^2 - 0.019 \; x_1^2 - x_0^2 \; x_2 + 3.846 \; x_0^3 \\
&&&           + 0.215 \; \xi - 0.28 \; x_0^2 \; \xi + 0.47 \; x_0 \; \xi^2 - 0.63 \; \xi^3 \\ 
&&&           - \left( 0.215 \; \xi - 0.28 \; x_0^2 \; \xi - 0.63 \; \xi^3 \right) \; 2 w \\ 
& \dot{x}_1 &=& x_2 \\
& \dot{x}_2 &=& -4.208 \; x_0 - 0.396 \; x_2 - 0.47 \; x_0^2 - 3.564 \; x_0^3 \\
&&&           - \left( 20.967 \; \xi - 6.265 \; x_0^2 \; \xi -46 \; x_0 \; \xi^2 - 61.4 \; \xi^3 \right) \; w \\ 
&&&           - \left( - 20.967 \; \xi + 6.265 \; x_0^2 \; \xi -46 \; x_0 \; \xi^2 + 61.4 \; \xi^3 \right) \; (1 - w) \\ 
&           &=& -4.208 \; x_0 - 0.396 \; x_2 - 0.47 \; x_0^2 - 3.564 \; x_0^3 \\
&&&           + 20.967 \; \xi - 6.265 \; x_0^2 \; \xi + 46 \; x_0 \; \xi^2 - 61.4 \; \xi^3 \\ 
&&&           - \left( 20.967 \; \xi - 6.265 \; x_0^2 \; \xi - 61.4 \; \xi^3 \right) \; 2 w \\ 
 & x(0) &=& (0.4655,0,0)^T, \\
 & x(T) &=& (0,0,0)^T, \\
 & w(t) &\in& \{0,1\},
\end{array}

with \xi = 0.05236. Note that there is a bijection between optimal solutions of the two problems.

Reference solutions

We provide here a comparison of different solutions reported in the literature. The numbers show the respective lengths t_i - t_{i-1} of the switching arcs with the value of w(t) on the upper or lower bound (given in the second column). Claim denotes what is stated in the respective publication, Simulation shows values obtained by a simulation with a Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method of 4th/5th order and an integration tolerance of 10^{-8}.
