It is a pleasure to announce the new major release of OptimalControl.jl (v2.0.0). Designed to solve optimal control problems on ODEs, the package features: a friendly DSL both direct (optimisation) and indirect (aka. shooting) methods solving on GPU — now as simple as solve(ocp, :gpu) a bunch of e…

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing! Would you be interested in giving a talk at an upcoming JuliaDynamics meeting about this? p.s.: There is the long existing ControlSystems.jl package. Do you mind writing some sort of comparison? I understand the different scope, as the latter is primarily for l…

[image] Datseris: Would you be interested in giving a talk at an upcoming JuliaDynamics meeting about this? I would be interested in hearing such a talk. So, if something like that will be scheduled, could you put the date and time for that in this thread?

@Datseris check the minimal action path tutorial Minimal action · Tutorials :slight_smile:

[image] Relationship between OptimalControl.jl and ControlSystems.jl Modelling & Simulations Dear @ufechner7 , dear all, seizing the opportunity of OptimalControl.jl latest release to provide some more details: As pointed by @baggepinnen the package is indeed…

@baggepinnen exactly :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks @Datseris for the invitation! I’d be happy to give a talk. Regarding comparisons, we first plan to benchmark the different components (modelers, solvers, AD backends) as well as our own algorithms. We will then compare with existing tools to better understand complementarities and relative s…

It looks like you have two accounts ( @drandran12 and @oameye). Thanks for the Minimal action · Tutorials you wrote — we really appreciate it! We make an effort to acknowledge contributors; you can check this page . I still need to update this tutorial for version 2 of OptimalControl.jl. I expect it …
