  • Abstract
    A second-order algorithm is presented for the solution of continuous-time nonlinear optimal control problems. The algorithm is an adaptation of the trust region modifications of Newton´s method and solves at each iteration a linear-quadratic control problem with an additional constraint. Under some assumptions, the proposed algorithm is shown to possess a global convergence property. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the method.
