Abstract

Optimal bang-bang fuel consumption control based on 3 criteria: saturation condition, pseudo-fuel, absolute fuel. Impulsive control censures 33-35\% less fuel than continuous control. Proof of convexity of goal. Applications to the control of a damped harmonic oscillator, and to a rigid-body maneuver.
