Rapid Optimal Control Kit
Project description
rockit
Description
Rockit (Rapid Optimal Control kit) is a software framework to quickly prototype optimal control problems (aka dynamic optimization) that may arise in engineering: iterative learning (ILC), model predictive control (NMPC), motion planning.
Notably, the software allows free end-time problems and multi-stage optimal problems. The software is currently focused on direct methods and relies heavily on CasADi. The software is developed by the KU Leuven MECO research team.
Installation
Install using pip: pip install rockit-meco

Import the project:
from rockit import *
Start an optimal control environment with a time horizon of 10 seconds (free time problems can be configured with FreeTime(initial_guess)
):
ocp = Ocp(T=10)
Define two scalar states (vectors and matrices also supported):
x1 = ocp.state()
x2 = ocp.state()
Define one piece-wise constant control input (use order=1
for piecewise linear):
u = ocp.control()
Specify differential equations for states (time dependency supported with ocp.t
, DAEs also supported with ocp.algebraic
and add_alg
):
ocp.set_der(x1, (1 - x2**2) * x1 - x2 + u)
ocp.set_der(x2, x1)
Lagrange objective term:
ocp.add_objective(ocp.integral(x1**2 + x2**2 + u**2))
ocp.add_objective(ocp.at_tf(x1**2))
Path constraints (must be valid on the whole time domain running from t0
to tf=t0+T
, grid options available):
ocp.subject_to(x1 >= -0.25)
ocp.subject_to(-1 <= (u <= 1 ))
Boundary constraints:
ocp.subject_to(ocp.at_t0(x1) == 0)
ocp.subject_to(ocp.at_t0(x2) == 1)
Pick an NLP solver backend (CasADi nlpsol
plugin):
ocp.solver('ipopt')
Pick a solution method: N -- number of control intervals M -- number of integration steps per control interval
method = MultipleShooting(N=10, M=2, intg='rk')
#method = DirectCollocation(N=10, M=2)
ocp.method(method)
Solve:
sol = ocp.solve()
Show structure:
ocp.spy()
Post-processing:
tsa, x1a = sol.sample(x1, grid='control')
tsb, x1b = sol.sample(x1, grid='integrator')
tsc, x1c = sol.sample(x1, grid='integrator', refine=100)
plot(tsa, x1a, '-')
plot(tsb, x1b, 'o')
plot(tsc, x1c, '.')
