摘要: A new concept of convergence (R-convergence) of a sequence of measures is applied to characterize global minimizers in a functional space as a sequence of approximate solutions in finite-dimensional spaces. A deviation integral approach is used to find such solutions. For a constrained problem, a penalized deviation integral algorithm is proposed to convert it to unconstrained ones. A numerical example on an optimal control problem with non-convex state constraints is given to show the effectiveness of the algorithm.
