Finding multiple local solutions to optimal control problems via saddle points and its application to the ascent trajectory of a winged rocket

Complex nonlinear optimal control problems can have more than a single local solution due to the lack of convexity, and widely-used gradient-based approaches for optimal control have a risk of producing an inferior local solution. Although global optimization methods for optimal control may overcome...
