CONTROLLING THE UNLOADING OF A RAILWAY CAR BY MEANS OF A RAILWAY CAR TILTER

This investigation concerns the special features of the control of a complex object, using as an example the unloading of a railway car by means of a railway car tilter. The mathematical model of the object is constructed and the optimality criterion is chosen. Dynamic programming in combination with gradient methods is recommended for the search for the optimal control.
