  • Abstract
    We describe an approximation method for the Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs (HJI) equation that results in feedback control. The approximation is accomplished via a two-step successive Galerkin approximation scheme. An application of the technique to the control of the forward motion of an underwater vehicle is described
