Mathematical formulation


\begin{array}{llclr}
	\displaystyle \min_{z, u, t_f} & t_f   \\[1.5ex]
	\mbox{s.t.} 
	& \dot{z}_1 & = & z_2, \\
	& \dot{z}_2 & = & u, \\[1.5ex]
	& z(0) &=& (0,0)^T, \\
	& z(t_f) &=& (300,0)^T, \\[1.5ex]
	& z_1(t) & \in & [0,33],\\
	& z_2(t) & \in & [0,330],\\
	& u(t) & \in & [-2,1].\\
	\end{array}

where  z = (z_1, z_2)^T .
