Description

The Model Predictive Control Toolbox™ offers a comprehensive suite of functions, an intuitive app, Simulink® blocks, and practical reference examples to facilitate the development of model predictive control (MPC) systems. It caters to linear challenges by enabling the creation of implicit, explicit, adaptive, and gain-scheduled MPC strategies. For more complex nonlinear scenarios, users can execute both single-stage and multi-stage nonlinear MPC. Additionally, this toolbox includes deployable optimization solvers and permits the integration of custom solvers. Users can assess the effectiveness of their controllers through closed-loop simulations in MATLAB® and Simulink environments. For applications in automated driving, the toolbox also features MISRA C®- and ISO 26262-compliant blocks and examples, allowing for a swift initiation of projects related to lane keep assist, path planning, path following, and adaptive cruise control. You have the capability to design implicit, gain-scheduled, and adaptive MPC controllers that tackle quadratic programming (QP) problems, and you can generate an explicit MPC controller derived from an implicit design. Furthermore, the toolbox supports discrete control set MPC for handling mixed-integer QP challenges, thus broadening its applicability in diverse control systems. With these extensive features, the toolbox ensures that both novice and experienced users can effectively implement advanced control strategies.

Description

Simcenter OptiStruct serves as a powerful multiphysics and multidisciplinary tool for simulation and optimization, covering both implicit and explicit analysis. By adopting a “One Model, One Solver” philosophy, it enhances workflow effectiveness, delivers necessary engineering analyses, and shortens the time required to achieve results, all while preserving precision. Genuine design advancements are achieved through the evaluation, refinement, and optimization of the entire system using a unified, integrated platform, which is precisely what OptiStruct facilitates. Engineers are empowered to evaluate a range of physics, such as durability, heat transfer, acoustics, and fatigue, all within a single model that combines structural and multiphysics analysis, thereby streamlining processes and hastening market readiness. Its flexible architecture supports collaboration with favored tools, integration of third-party software, and customization of the application, ensuring that the same model and solver approach are upheld throughout. Furthermore, OptiStruct establishes a benchmark for optimization in various areas including lightweighting, structural integrity, multi-model, nonparametric shape optimization, and multi-material applications, making it an essential tool for engineers. Ultimately, the versatility and efficiency offered by OptiStruct not only enhance the design process but also foster innovation across diverse engineering sectors.
