GRAMPC is a nonlinear MPC framework that is suitable for dynamical systems with sampling times in the (sub)millisecond range and that allows for an efficient implementation on embedded hardware. The algorithm is based on an augmented Lagrangian formulation with a tailored gradient method for the inner minimization problem. GRAMPC is implemented in plain C with an additional interface to C++ and MATLAB/Simulink. The basic structure and usage of GRAMPC are described in the documentation that comes along with the source files. More details about the algorithm and its performance can be found in the corresponding article published in Optimization and Engeneering. ...

Isogeometric analysis (IGA) is a fundamental step forward in computational mechanics that offers the possibility of integrating methods for analysis into Computer Aided Design (CAD) tools and vice versa. The benefits of such an approach are evident, since the time taken from design to analysis is greatly reduced leading to large savings in cost and time for industry. The tight coupling of CAD and analysis within IGA requires knowledge from both fields and it is one of the goals of the...
