Problem Formulation

Find u over t in [0; 2 ] to minimize

$$ J = x_2(t_F) $$

subject to:

$$ \frac{dx_1}{dt} = u $$

$$ \frac{dx_2}{dt} = 0.5*x_1^2 $$

The initial condition are:

$$ x(0) = [1 \ 0] $$

$$ -1 <= u <= 1 $$

Problem setup

toms t
p = tomPhase('p', t, 0, 2, 50);
setPhase(p);

tomStates x1 x2
tomControls u

% Initial guess
x0 = {icollocate({x1 == 1; x2 == 0})
    collocate(u == 0)};

% Box constraints
cbox = {-1 <= collocate(u) <= 1};

% Boundary constraints
cbnd = initial({x1 == 1; x2 == 0});

% ODEs and path constraints
ceq = collocate({dot(x1) == u
    dot(x2) == 0.5*x1.^2});

% Objective
objective = final(x2);

Solve the problem

options = struct;
options.name = 'Singular Control 1';
solution = ezsolve(objective, {cbox, cbnd, ceq}, x0, options);
t = subs(collocate(t),solution);
u = subs(collocate(u),solution);
