Problem setup

toms t
p = tomPhase('p', t, 0, 100, 60);
setPhase(p);

tomStates x1s x2 x3s
tomControls u1s u2

x1 = x1s*100;
x3 = x3s*10;
u1 = u1s*10e3;
cr2d = pi/180;

% Box constraints
cbox = {
    92       <= icollocate(x1) <= 170
    -20*cr2d <= icollocate(x2) <= 25*cr2d
    -150     <= icollocate(x3) <= 150
    60e3     <= collocate(u1) <= 120e3
    -150     <= collocate(u2) <= 150};

% Boundary constraints
cbnd = initial({x1 == 153.73
    x2 == 0; x3 == 0});

L = 65.3;
D = 3.18;
m = 160e3;
g = 9.81;
c = 6;

% ODEs and path constraints
ceq = collocate({
    dot(x1) == (-D/m*x1.^2-g*sin(x2)+u1/m)
    dot(x2) == L/m*x1.*(1-c*x2)-g*cos(x2)./x1+L*c/m*u2
    dot(x3) == (x1.*sin(x2))});

% Objective
objective = integrate(x3.^2);

Solve the problem

options = struct;
options.name = 'Flight Path Tracking';
solution = ezsolve(objective, {cbox, cbnd, ceq}, [], options);
t  = subs(collocate(t),solution);
x1 = subs(collocate(x1),solution);
x2 = subs(collocate(x2),solution);
x3 = subs(collocate(x3),solution);
u1 = subs(collocate(u1),solution);
u2 = subs(collocate(u2),solution);
