Optimal Traction Control in High-Speed Maneuvering under Dry Friction Conditions.

The problem of control of the traction force direction in the course of the motion of an inertial object is considered. The maximum possible value of the traction force is constant and is determined by the maximum dry friction force. Within a finite time range, the problem of bringing an object to a given rectilinear trajectory with simultaneous velocity maximization in the appropriate direction is considered.
