Automated trajectory synthesis for hypersonic vehicles using energy management and variational calculus techniques

A generalized algorithm based on energy management techniques and calculus of variations is discussed for determining optimal trajectories of hypersonic vehicles. This method employs both techniques simultaneously such that they augment each other in obtaining the optimum path. A simulation algorith...
