A direct transcription-based multiple shooting formulation for dynamic optimization
Abstract The growing need for fast and efficient solution techniques for solving dynamic optimization problems is driven by a broad spectrum of applications in scheduling and control. We propose a novel framework for dynamic optimization that utilizes a multiple shooting “backbone” with discrete rather than continuous subproblems, thereby eliminating

Direct multiple shooting transcription with polynomial algebra for optimal control problems under uncertainty [PDF]
This paper proposes a novel approach to the solution of optimal control problems under uncertainty (OCPUUs). OCPUUs are first cast in a general formulation that allows the treatment of uncertainties of different nature, and then solved with a new direct transcription method that combines multiple shooting with generalised polynomial algebra to model ...

Direct multiple shooting method for solving approximate shortest path problems
We use the idea of the direct multiple shooting method (presented by Bock in Proceedings of the 9th IFAC World Congress Budapest, Pergamon Press, 1984, for solving optimal control problems) to introduce an algorithm for solving some approximate shortest path problems in motion planning.

Efficient direct multiple shooting for nonlinear model predictive control on long horizons [PDF]
Abstract We address direct multiple shooting based algorithms for nonlinear model predictive control, with a focus on problems with long prediction horizons. We describe different efficient multiple shooting variants with a computational effort that is only linear in the horizon length. Proposed techniques comprise structure exploiting linear algebra

Finding Optimal Controls for Helicopter Maneuvers Using the Direct Multiple-Shooting Method
The purpose of this paper deals with direct multiple-shooting method (DMS) to resolve helicopter maneuver problems of helicopters. The maneuver problem is transformed into nonlinear problems and solved DMS technique. The DMS method is easy in handling constraints and it has large convergence radius compared to other strategies.

QuITO: Numerical software for constrained nonlinear optimal control problems
We introduce the MATLAB-based software QuITO (Quasi-Interpolation based Trajectory Optimization) to numerically solve a wide class of constrained nonlinear optimal control problems (OCP). The solver is based on the QuITO (the same abbreviation) algorithm,

Complementary Condensing for the Direct Multiple Shooting Method [PDF]
In this contribution we address the efficient solution of optimal control problems of dynamic processes with many controls. Such problems typically arise from the convexification of integer control decisions. We treat this problem class using the direct multiple shooting method to discretize the optimal control problem. The resulting nonlinear problems
