module number	201251
department	Department of Mathematics and Natural Sciences
ID of group	2413 (Numerical Analysis and Information Processing)
module leader	Prof. Dr. Karl Worthmann
language	Deutsch/Englisch
term	Wintersemester
previous knowledge and experience	Grundlagen der Analysis und linearen Algebra sowie bzgl. gewöhnlicher Differentialgleichungen Fundamentals of Analysis, Linear Algebra, Probability Theory, Python programming or Matlab programming
learning outcome	Die Studierenden kennen nach der Vorlesung grundlegende Begriffe, Resultate und Beweisideen der Theorie der optimalen Steuerung Insbesondere können Sie das Bang-Bang-Prinzip einordnen und beschreiben Außerdem können Sie das Maximumprinzip und seine Bestandteile wiedergeben, anwenden und einordnen. Sie sind nach den Übungen fähig, die allgemeinen Resultate auf Spezialfälle anzuwenden. Zudem kennen die Studierenden Querbezüge zur (nichtlinearen) Optimierung. After the lecture the students know the basic terminology and some of the key results of optimal control theory. For the latter, the students can sketched the main ideas of the respective proofs. This applies in particular to the bang-bang and the maximum principle. Moreover, the students can apply the results to deal with concrete example or tasks and are aware of connections to (nonlinear) optimization.
