Particle steering problem
State dimension: 1
Differential states: 2
Discrete control functions: 1
Path constraints: 2
Interior point equalities: 7

The Particle steering problem minimizes "the time taken for a particle, acted upon by a thrust of constant magnitude, to achieve a given altitude and terminal velocity." (Cite and problem taken from the COPS library)


Mathematical formulation

The problem is given by


\begin{array}{llcl}
 \displaystyle \min_{x, u, t_f} & t_f   \\[1.5ex]
 \mbox{s.t.} 
 & \ddot{x}_1 & = & a \cos (u), \\
 & \ddot{x}_2 & = & a \sin (u),  \\
 & x(0) &=& (0, 0)^T, \\
 & \dot{x}(0) &=& (0, 0)^T, \\
 & x_2 (t_f) &=& 5, \\
 & \dot{x}(t_f) &=& (45, 0)^T, \\
 & u(t) &\in&  [-\frac{\pi}{2},\frac{\pi}{2}].
\end{array}


where  (x_1, x_2) is the position of the particle,  u is the control angle and  a is the constant magnitude of thrust.
