TL;DR: In this paper, an imbedding equation is used to solve linear regulator problems depending on a parameter α. From this equation, the optimum matrix K(α) is obtained for all α in [α 0, α 1 ].
Abstract: An imbedding equation is used to solve linear regulator problems depending on a parameter α. From this equation the optimum matrix K(\alpha) is obtained for all \alpha \in [\alpha_{0},\alpha_{1} ]. Two typical applications of this equation are discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, Pontryagin's maximum principle is applied to a second order nonlinear model of an electric train and control laws are determined for several problems involving constraints on both state and control variables.
