Abstract

The sensitivity analysis for state constrained optimal control problems [7, 8] is illustrated by a practically relevant problem: the optimal control of a container crane based on a model developed in [12]. The container crane is subject to a state constraint on the vertical velocity. The multiple shooting method is used to determine a highly precise nominal solution which is still lacking in the literature. Second order sufficient conditions are checked by showing that an associated Riccati equation has a bounded solution. Sensitivity differentials of optimal solutions are computed with respect to perturbations in the swing angle and velocity. This allows for a fast computation of real-time approximations of perturbed optimal solutions.
