Development of Graphical Time Response Using the OPTSYSX Program.

Abstract

This thesis discusses the modification of and additions to an existing Optimal Systems Control FORTRAN Program (OPTSYS) originally obtained from Professor Arthur E. Bryson of Stanford University and subsequently redesigned to run interactively on the IBM 3033 VM/CMS by Lieutenant Commander John G. Hoden of the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS). The modified FORTRAN program (OPTSYSX) and the additional FORTRAN Programs (OPTCALC) and (OPTPLOT) are now designed to run interactively under VM/CMS on the IBM 3033 utilizing a library double precision numerical integration subroutine and high resolution precision plotting software to provide the user with a highly accurate time response of a system which has been designed on the OPTSYSX Program. This series of programs permits the user to rapidly design, analyze and test all types of Optimal Systems Control problems. Examples of the various types of problems are worked through to illustrate all of the capabilities available. Additional keywords: open loop systems; closed loop systems; calculations. (Author).
