Nonlinear optimal feedback control for lunar module soft landing

In this paper, the optimal control problem to achieve lunar module soft landing with least fuel consumption is considered. The precise three dimensional dynamics is employed to describe the motion of the lunar module. By introducing two new state equations, a closed loop optimal control law is desig...
