Abstract: The primary focus of this research is on a semi-analytical method for solving a generalized quadratic optimal control problem constrained by Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE). The solutions are obtained by applying the first order optimality conditions on the Hamiltonian function, which is a necessary condition for optimality. The Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM), which views the approximation of a non-linear equation as an infinite series that typically converges to the exact solution, is used to solve the associated general Riccati differential equation. This leads to the optimal state, control and adjoint variables which yields the optimal objective functional value. Solutions to two examples of optimal control problems constrained by ODE are given.
