57  Linear Tangent Steering Problem

Benchmarking Optimization Software with COPS Elizabeth D. Dolan and Jorge J. More ARGONNE NATIONAL LABORATORY

57.1  Problem Formulation

Find u(t) over t in [0; t_F ] to minimize

J = tf

subject to:

d2y1 dt2

= a*cos(u)

d2y2 dt2

= a*sin(u)

|u| <=

pi 2

y1:2(0) = 0

dy1:2 dt

= 0

a = 1

y2(f) = 5

dy1:2 dt

(f) = [45  0]

The following transformation gives a new formulation:

x1 = y1

x2 =

dy1 dt

x3 = y2

x4 =

dy2 dt

dx1 dt

= x2

dx2 dt

= a*cos(u)

dx3 dt

= x4

dx4 dt

= a*sin(u)

Reference: [14]

57.2  Problem setup

toms t
toms t_f
p = tomPhase('p', t, 0, t_f, 30);
setPhase(p);

tomStates x1 x2 x3 x4
tomControls u

% Initial guess
x0 = {t_f == 1
    icollocate({
    x1 == 12*t/t_f
    x2 == 45*t/t_f
    x3 == 5*t/t_f
    x4 == 0})};

% Box constraints
cbox = {sqrt(eps) <= t_f
    -pi/2 <= collocate(u) <= pi/2};

% Boundary constraints
cbnd = {initial({x1 == 0; x2 == 0; x3 == 0; x4 == 0})
    final({x2 == 45; x3 == 5; x4 == 0})};

% ODEs and path constraints
a = 100;
ceq = collocate({dot(x1) == x2
    dot(x2) == a*cos(u)
    dot(x3) == x4
    dot(x4) == a*sin(u)});

% Objective
objective = t_f;

57.3  Solve the problem

options = struct;
options.name = 'Linear Tangent Steering';
options.solver = 'knitro';
solution = ezsolve(objective, {cbox, cbnd, ceq}, x0, options);
t  = subs(collocate(t),solution);
x1 = subs(collocate(x1),solution);
x2 = subs(collocate(x2),solution);
x3 = subs(collocate(x3),solution);
x4 = subs(collocate(x4),solution);
u  = subs(collocate(u),solution);
