 Abstract: A form of the modified Newton's algorithm of nonlinear programming has been proposed in this paper as potentially capable of solving the Strategic Operations Optimization (SOO) problems relevant to the various Earth Transport Systems (ETS). The application has been demonstrated on solar/electric road vehicle under the race conditions. Modeling of the vehicle and the optimization problem setting have been done from the general ETS SOO standpoint. The analytical conditions under which this method is applicable have been discussed, too. It has been shown that the knowledge of ETS mathematical model would suffice to predetermine the validity of this approach. We have demonstrated the method on the minimum-energy type of SOO problems and have generalized our observations for the minimum-time optimization scenarios, also.
