This page contains a model of the Catalyst mixing problem in AMPL format, making use of the TACO toolkit for AMPL control optimization extensions. This problem is due to [Stryk1999]Author: Stryk, O. von
Institution: Technische Universit\"at M\"unchen, Germany
Title: User's guide for DIRCOL (Version 2.1): A direct collocation method for the numerical solution of optimal control problems
Year: 1999
. The original model using a collocation formulation can be found in the COPS library. Note that you will need to include a generic AMPL/TACO support file, OptimalControl.mod. To solve this model, you require an optimal control or NLP code that uses the TACO toolkit to support the AMPL optimal control extensions.

This is the source file catmix_taco.mod
