摘要：

Based on an earlier publication (Ref. 1), a coordinate transformation is proposed, which allows the direct global extremization of a class of integrals without the use of comparison methods such as variational or field techniques. This direct method is shown to be applicable to a class of unconstrained optimal control problems. A motivation for the proposed method as well as applications are presented.
