Minimum Time for a Hybrid System with Thermostatic Switchings

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 4416))

Abstract

In this paper we study a minimum time problem for a hybrid system subject to thermostatic switchings. We apply the Dynamic Programming method and the viscosity solution theory of Hamilton-Jacobi equations. We regard the problem as a suitable coupling of two minimum-time/exit-time problems. Under some controllability conditions, we prove that the minimum time function is the unique bounded below continuous function which solves a system of two Hamilton-Jacobi equations coupled via the boundary conditions.
