We present a novel numerical method for the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation governing a class of optimal feedback control problems. The spatial discretization is based on a least-squares collocation Radial Basis Function method and the time discretization is the backward Euler finite difference. A stability analysis is performed for the discretization method. An adaptive algorithm is proposed so that at each time step, the approximate solution can be constructed recursively and optimally. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the method
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
