Abstract

The purpose of this communication is to investigate the applicability of Variational Calculus to the optimization of the operation of differentially flat systems. After introducing characteristic properties of differentially flat systems, the applicability of variational calculus to the optimization of flat output trajectories is displayed. Three illustrative examples are also presented.
