ACADO toolkit—An open-source framework for automatic control and dynamic optimization
TL;DR: The user‐friendly syntax of the ACADO Toolkit to set up optimization problems is illustrated with two tutorial examples: an optimal control and a parameter estimation problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
An auto-generated real-time iteration algorithm for nonlinear MPC in the microsecond range
TL;DR: An automatic C-code generation strategy for real-time nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) is presented, which is designed for applications with kilohertz sample rates and shows a promising performance being able to provide feedback in much less than a millisecond.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear MPC of kites under varying wind conditions for a new class of large-scale wind power generators
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) for control of power generating kites under changing wind conditions and derived a realistic non-linear model for a kite and computed energy optimal loops for different wind speeds.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Augmented Lagrangian Based Algorithm for Distributed NonConvex Optimization
TL;DR: A parallelizable method is proposed that combines ideas from the fields of sequential quadratic programming and augmented Lagrangian algorithms that negotiates shared dual variables that may be interpreted as prices, a concept employed in dual decomposition methods and the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM).

Optimal control for power generating kites
Boris Houska,Moritz Diehl +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a single kite that produces wind energy by periodically pulling a generator on the ground while flying fast in a crosswind direction is presented. But the main result is that the main results are that the system can attain about 5MW with a 500m2-kite at equation wind speed.
