Problem Description

Find u over t in [0; 10 ] to maximize:

$$ J = x_3(t_f) $$

subject to:

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

$$ \frac{dx_2}{dt} = -x_1 $$

$$ \frac{dx_2}{dt} = x_2-x_1^2 $$

$$ x(t_0) = [0 \ 0 \ 0] $$

$$ |u| <= 1 $$

Problem setup

toms t
tF = 10;
p = tomPhase('p', t, 0, tF, 80);
setPhase(p);

tomStates x1 x2 x3
tomControls u

x = [x1; x2; x3];

% Initial guess
x0 = {icollocate({x1 == 0, x2 == 0, x3 == 0})
    collocate(u==0)};

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

% Boundary constraints
cbnd = initial(x == [0;0;0]);

% ODEs and path constraints
ceq = collocate({dot(x1) == u; dot(x2) == -x(1)
    dot(x3) == x(2)-x(1).^2});

% Objective
objective = -final(x(3));

Solve the problem

options = struct;
options.name = 'Singular Control 6';
solution = ezsolve(objective, {cbox, cbnd, ceq}, x0, options);

% Extract optimal states and controls from solution
t  = collocate(subs(t,solution));
u  = collocate(subs(u,solution));
x1 = collocate(subs(x1,solution));
x2 = collocate(subs(x2,solution));
x3 = collocate(subs(x3,solution));
