Abstract
We prove a local existence result for the manoeuvrability control of a submarine. The problem is formulated as an optimal control problem with a nonlinear and highly coupled system of ODEs for the state law, a Lagrange-type cost function, and nonlinear controls which take values on a convex and compact subset of R3R3. Finally, the existence of solution for this problem is obtained by applying a recent general existence result (see [P. Pedregal and J. Tiago, Existence results for optimal control problems with some special non-linear dependence on state and control, SIAM J. Control Optim. 48 (2) (2009) 415–437]) which, however, requires some modifications in order to be applicable in our specific case.
