Caratheodory-π solution
A Carathéodory-π solution is a generalized solution to an ordinary differential equation. The concept is due to I. Michael Ross and named in honor of Constantin Carathéodory. Its practicality was demonstrated in 2008 by Ross et al. in a laboratory implementation of the concept. The concept is most useful for implementing feedback controls, particularly those generated by an application of Ross' pseudospectral optimal control theory.
