Abstract: In this paper, we consider an optimal control problem of a national economic system with full employment in which the “Marginal Propensity to Save” and the “Profit Margin” are treated as ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the position and force control for mechanical systems with holonomic constraints. Our concern is the design of a feedback controller such that the closed-loop system has ...

Abstract: The paper concerns the optimal shape of plastically designed arches under bending and axial compression. In view of the absolute term found in the specific weight, the optimization problem is that of a nonsmooth one. An ...
