Abstract
We develop a unified methodology for computing second order derivatives of functions obtained in complex multistep processes and derive formulas for Hessians arising in discretization of optimal control problems. Where a process is described by continuous equations, we start with a discretization scheme for the state equations and derive exact gradient and Hessian expressions. We introduce adjoint systems for auxiliary vectors and matrices used for computing the derivatives. A unique discretization scheme is automatically generated for vector and matrix adjoint equations. The structure of the adjoint systems for some approximation schemes is found. The formulas for second derivatives are applied to examples.
