    Optimal control of multiphase steel production
    (Berlin ; Heidelberg : Springer, 2019) Hömberg, Dietmar; Krumbiegel, Klaus; Togobytska, Nataliya
    An optimal control problem for the production of multiphase steel is investigated that takes into account phase transformations in the steel slab. The state equations are a semilinear heat equation coupled with an ordinary differential equation, that describes the evolution of the steel microstructure. The time-dependent heat transfer coefficient serves as a control function. Necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for the control problem are derived. For the numerical solution of the control problem, a reduced sequential quadratic programming method with a primal-dual active set strategy is developed. The numerical results are presented for the optimal control of a cooling line in the production of hot-rolled Mo–Mn dual phase steel. © 2019, The Author(s).

    Path planning and collision avoidance for robots : dedicated to Prof. Dr. Helmut Maurer on the occasion of his 65th birthday
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2011) Gerdts, Matthias; Henrion, René; Hömberg, Dietmar; Landry, Chantal; Maurer, Helmut
    An optimal control problem to find the fastest collision-free trajectory of a robot surrounded by obstacles is presented. The collision avoidance is based on linear programming arguments and expressed as state constraints. The optimal control problem is solved with a sequential programming method. In order to decrease the number of unknowns and constraints a backface culling active set strategy is added to the resolution technique.
