| 内容記述 | The present investigation is concerned with an examination of optimal symmetry flight on the basis of the intermediate vehicle model. The analysis is partly based upon an exploration of Euler solutions for the path-angle-as-control model carried out by Kelley (1958). The current analysis takes into account higher-order optimality conditions and 'chattering-control' phenomena. Attention is given to details regarding the intermediate vehicle model, the Legendre-Clebsch necessary condition, the conjugate-point test, and the numerical solution of the time-range problem. It is found that the flight path angle takes on the role of control variable in the model. From physical considerations, it can be seen that when a positive margin of thrust over drag exists, the maximum-range climb trajectory without time or fuel constraints has no proper maximum nor an upper bound. |
