BOCOP Reader

This project implements the BOCOPSolution Python class, which reads a BOCOP solution directory for ease of use in scientific and engineering applications.

For example, it implements:

• Grouping states/adjoint states/control variables together in VariableBunch classes.
• Representing variables in common types for scientific Python, such as NumPy ndarray and Pandas DataFrame.
• Improved plotting with the matplotlib library, easily plotting variables over time as well as phase diagrams between states with full customization capabilities.
• Variable interpolation with cubic splines, allowing for easy differentiation and integration.
• Variable interpolation with piecewise constants, numerically detecting bang-bang controls and returning their LaTeX representation.

Installation and use

For local or Google Colab installation, just use the command:

pip install git+https://github.com/johnny-godoy/bocop-reader.git

The main object that stores all solution files is the BOCOPSolution class, which can be imported like such:

from bocop_solution import BOCOPSolution

We include a small guide in the notebooks/Introduction.ipynb notebook. It is also available as HTML here.
