Abstract: | The minimum-fuel control problem is investigated for a class of multiinput affine nonlinear systems whose associated Lie algebra is nilpotent. After preliminary notions and definitions are presented, emphasis is on the solution to the optimal control problem of the Lie algebra generated by certain system vector fields is nilpotent. Consequences of the maximum principle are deduced for such systems |
