Retractions maps are used to define a discretization of the tangent bundle of the configuration manifold as two copies of the configuration manifold where the dynamics take place. Such discretization maps can be conveniently lifted to the…

The classical notion of retraction map used to approximate geodesics is extended and rigorously defined to become a powerful tool to construct geometric integrators and it is called discretization map. Using the geometry of the tangent and…

In this paper, we compare the performance of different numerical schemes in approximating Pontryagin's Maximum Principle's necessary conditions for the optimal control of nonholonomic systems. Retraction maps are used as a seed to construct…

In this paper we use retraction and discretization maps (see [Barbero Li\~n\'an and Mart\'in de Diego, 2022]) as a tool for deriving in a systematic way numerical integrators preserving geometric structures (such as symplecticity or…

This paper develops numerical methods for optimal control of mechanical systems in the Lagrangian setting. It extends the theory of discrete mechanics to enable the solutions of optimal control problems through the discretization of…

Retraction maps have been generalized to discretization maps in (Barbero Li\~n\'an and and Mart\'{\i}n de Diego, 2022). Discretization maps are used to systematically derive numerical integrators that preserve the symplectic structure, as…

We reconsider the variational integration of optimal control problems for mechanical systems based on a direct discretization of the Lagrange-d'Alembert principle. This approach yields discrete dynamical constraints which by construction…

A new geometric procedure to construct symplectic methods for constrained mechanical systems is developed in this paper. The definition of a map coming from the notion of retraction maps allows to adapt the continuous problem to the…

In recent years, much effort in designing numerical methods for the simulation and optimization of mechanical systems has been put into schemes which are structure preserving. One particular class are variational integrators which are…

This paper develops a structure-preserving numerical integration scheme for a class of higher-order mechanical systems. The dynamics of these systems are governed by invariant variational principles defined on higher-order tangent bundles…

Numerical methods that preserve geometric invariants of the system, such as energy, momentum or the symplectic form, are called geometric integrators. In this paper we present a method to construct symplectic-momentum integrators for…

In this paper we investigate a variational discretization for the class of mechanical systems in presence of symmetries described by the action of a Lie group which reduces the phase space to a (non-trivial) principal bundle. By introducing…

Control laws for continuous-time dynamical systems are most often implemented via digital controllers using a sample-and-hold technique. Numerical discretization of the continuous system is an integral part of subsequent analysis. Feedback…

An interesting family of geometric integrators for Lagrangian systems can be defined using discretizations of the Hamilton's principle of critical action. This family of geometric integrators is called variational integrators. In this…

In this paper we present a general framework that allows one to study discretization of certain dynamical systems. This generalizes earlier work on discretization of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems on tangent bundles and cotangent…

In this paper we will discuss some new developments in the design of numerical methods for optimal control problems of Lagrangian systems on Lie groups. We will construct these geometric integrators using discrete variational calculus on…

Mechanical systems are most often described by a set of continuous-time, nonlinear, second-order differential equations (SODEs) of a particular structure governed by the covariant derivative. The digital implementation of controllers for…

Optimal control problems for underactuated mechanical systems can be seen as a higher-order variational problem subject to higher-order constraints (that is, when the Lagrangian function and the constraints depend on higher-order…

Retraction maps are known to be the seed for all numerical integrators. These retraction maps-based integrators can be further lifted to tangent and cotangent bundles, giving rise to structure-preserving integrators for mechanical systems.…

The optimal control of a mechanical system is of crucial importance in many realms. Typical examples are the determination of a time-minimal path in vehicle dynamics, a minimal energy trajectory in space mission design, or optimal motion…
