Optimal switching control via direct search optimization

We demonstrate in this paper that for switched systems the optimal switching time instants and the optimal control policy can be solved readily by direct search optimization. General problem formulation and numerical procedures are presented together with two demonstrative examples previously considered in the literature using other numerical solution methods.
