Since R(t, x(t) ) is the minimum value of the performance index for the<br />

solution which starts at the point (t, x(t)), it follows that R must<br />

satisfy the terminal condition<br />

However, in addition, the terminal point (tf, x (t,)) must satisfy the<br />

terminal constraints<br />

?$(f&) =o AT t’=$ ; j =I,@? (2.1+.115)<br />

Hence, the boundary condition on R becomes<br />

Analogous to the development of IQs. (2.4.63B) from the boundary condition<br />

(2.4.63A) for the problem of Lagrange, the above expression can be reworked<br />

to yield the equivalent condition<br />

where/C is the vector<br />

P =<br />

= 1, h (2.4.117)<br />

If the final time tf is itself not specified, then the additional boundary<br />

condition<br />

must hold.<br />
