Prof.Daniela Iacoviello- Optimal Control
Grading
Project + oral exam
The exam must be concluded before the second
part of Identification that will be held by Prof. Battilotti
Example of project:
Read a paper on an optimal control problem (any field will
do)
You can choose a topic developed in the papers I proposed
you, or from the examples proposed in the books suggested
(i.e. Evans) , or a specific problem of your interest.
1) Study: background, motivations, model, optimal control,
solution, results
2) Simulations
You must give me, at least ten days before the date of the
exam:
- A .doc document
- Matlab simulation files
1) Study: background, motivations, model, optimal control, solution,
results
In the .doc file you have to indicate clearly:
- the background of the problem you are studying, the motivations
(why the problem is important?),
- the model assumed (indicate variables, parameters, their meaning,
etc),
- the cost index and the optimal control introduced (the meaning,
what they represent, different possible choices, etc).
2) Simulations: You have to implement the model and the control by
matlab:
- describe the program;
- propose the results;
- discuss them.
You must give me, at least ten days before the date of the
exam:
- A .doc document
- Matlab simulation files
Final exam:
Project + oral part:
Project
Discussion of the project using a power point presentation
Oral part on the topics considered during the Lectures
The Student can decide the date of the exam
(send me an e-mail with all the material ten days
before the date you propose for the exam)
The discussion of the project and the oral exam
may be in the same day or not.
Students who proposed the projects together must
discuss the project together, but they can do their
exam in different days
The exam must be concluded
before
the second part of Identification
that will be held by Prof. Battilotti
The final grade will be the weighted sum of
the evaluations obtained in the two parts,
optimal control (3CFU) and
identification (9 CFU)
