Abstract
This paper presents a numerical solution for solving optimal control p roblems, and the controlled Duffing oscillator. A new Chebyshev spectr al procedure is introduced. Control variables and state variables are approximated by Chebyshev series. Then the system dynamics is transfor med into systems of algebraic equations. The optimal control problem i s reduced to a constrained optimization problem. Results and compariso ns are given at the end of the paper.
