In this paper, we present a real-time successive convexification algorithm for a generalized free-final-time 6-degree-of-freedom powered descent guidance problem. We build on our previous work by introducing the following contributions: (i)…
This paper presents a numerical algorithm for computing 6-degree-of-freedom free-final-time powered descent guidance trajectories. The trajectory generation problem is formulated using a unit dual quaternion representation of the rigid body…
This work introduces Transformer-based Successive Convexification (T-SCvx), an extension of Transformer-based Powered Descent Guidance (T-PDG), generalizable for efficient six-degree-of-freedom (DoF) fuel-optimal powered descent trajectory…
The contribution of this paper is the application of compound state-triggered constraints (STCs) to real-time quad-rotor path planning. Originally developed for rocket landing applications, STCs are made up of a trigger condition and a…
In this paper, we present the application of successive convexification methods to autonomous driving problems borrowed from recent aerospace literature. We formulate two optimization problems within the successive convexification…
In this paper, we employ successive convexification to solve the minimum-time 6-DoF rocket powered landing problem. The contribution of this paper is the development and demonstration of a free-final-time problem formulation that can be…
This paper presents a sequential convex programming (SCP) framework for ensuring the continuous-time satisfaction of compound state-triggered constraints, a subset of logical specifications, in the powered descent guidance (PDG) problem.…
This paper presents a constraint-enforcing control framework for a class of discrete-time strict-feedback nonlinear systems. The objective is to guarantee closed-loop stability while ensuring forward invariance of a prescribed safe set…
This paper presents a Successive Convexification ($ \texttt{SCvx} $) algorithm to solve a class of non-convex optimal control problems with certain types of state constraints. Sources of non-convexity may include nonlinear dynamics and…
In this paper we present a fast method based on successive convexification for generating fuel-optimized spacecraft rendezvous trajectories in the presence of mixed-integer constraints. A recently developed paradigm of state-triggered…
This study demonstrates how the adjoint-based framework traditionally used to compute gradients in PDE optimization problems can be extended to handle general constraints on the state variables. This is accomplished by constructing a…
This paper presents an algorithm to solve non-convex optimal control problems, where non-convexity can arise from nonlinear dynamics, and non-convex state and control constraints. This paper assumes that the state and control constraints…
Powered descent guidance (PDG) problems subject to six-degrees-of-freedom (6DOF) dynamics allow for enforcement of practical attitude constraints. However, numerical solutions to 6DOF PDG problems are challenging due to fast rotational…
This manuscript contains technical results related to a particular approach for the design of Model Predictive Control (MPC) laws. The approach, named "generalized" terminal state constraint, induces the recursive feasibility of the…
This paper introduces a first-order method for solving optimal powered descent guidance (PDG) problems, that directly handles the nonconvex constraints associated with the maximum and minimum thrust bounds with varying mass and the pointing…
Here we derive a nonsmooth maximum principle for optimal control problems with both state and mixed constraints. Crucial to our development is a convexity assumption on the "velocity set". The approach consists of applying known…
We present successive convexification, a real-time-capable solution method for nonconvex trajectory optimization, with continuous-time constraint satisfaction and guaranteed convergence, that only requires first-order information. The…
Reference governors are add-on schemes that are used to modify trajectories to prevent controlled dynamical systems from violating constraints and so are playing an increasingly important role in aerospace, robotic, and other engineering…
The final purpose of this paper is to show that, by inserting a convexity constraint on the cables of a suspension bridge, the torsional instability of the deck appears at lower energy thresholds. Since this constraint is suggested by the…
In this paper, we present a distributed model predictive control (DMPC) scheme for dynamically decoupled systems which are subject to state constraints, coupling state constraints and input constraints. In the proposed control scheme,…
