Abstract: The objectives of this work are to study and to apply the full-space quasi-Lagrange-Newton-Krylov (FQLNK) algorithm for solving trajectory optimization problems arising from aerospace industrial applications. As its name suggests, in this algorithm we first convert the constrained optimization problem into an unconstrained one by introducing the augmented Lagrangian parameters. The next step is to find the optimal candidate solution by solving the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) system with a Newton-Krylov method. To reduce the computational cost of constructing the KKT system, we employ the Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS) formula to build an approximation of the (1,1) subblock of the KKT matrix, which is the most expensive part of the overall computation. The BFGS-based FQLNK algorithm exhibits a superior speedup compared to some of the alternatives. We demonstrate our FQLNK algorithm to be a practical approach for designing an optimal trajectory of a launch vehicle in space missions.

Electronic Transactions on Numerical Analysis (ETNA) is an electronic journal for the publication of significant new developments in numerical analysis and scientific computing. Papers of the highest quality that deal with the analysis of algorithms for the solution of continuous models and numerical linear algebra are appropriate for ETNA, as are papers of similar quality that discuss implementation and performance of such algorithms. New algorithms for current or new computer architectures are appropriate provided that they are numerically sound. However, the focus of the publication should be on the algorithm rather than on the architecture. The journal is published by the Kent State University Library in conjunction with the Institute of Computational Mathematics at Kent State University, and in cooperation with the Johann Radon Institute for Computational and Applied Mathematics of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (RICAM). Reviews of all ETNA papers appear in Mathematical Reviews and Zentralblatt für Mathematik. Reference information for ETNA papers also appears in the expanded Science Citation Index. ETNA is registered with the Library of Congress and has ISSN 1068-9613. …
