Detailed Description

Solve the MocoProblem using the tropter direct collocation library.

tropter** is a free and open-source C++ library that supports computing the Jacobian and Hessian via either automatic differentiation or finite differences, and uses IPOPT for solving the nonlinear optimization problem.

This class allows you to configure tropter's settings.

Supported optimization solvers

The following optimization solvers can be specified for the optim_solver property:

  • ipopt
  • snopt

Using this solver in C++ requires that a tropter shared library is available, but tropter header files are not required. No tropter symbols are exposed in Moco's interface.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ Self

This typedef might be useful within the member functions of this class.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

◆ Super

Use this typedef to refer to the superclass of this class.

Avoid using the explicit type name of the superclass; this would introduce bugs if the superclass is changed.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Member Function Documentation

◆ assign()

void OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::assign ( Object aObject)
inlineoverride

This allows copy assignment in the Java GUI.

Exceptions
Exceptionif the argument is not of type MocoTropterSolver.

◆ checkGuess()

void OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::checkGuess ( const MocoTrajectory guess) const
protected

Check that the provided guess is compatible with the problem and this solver.

◆ clearGuess()

void OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::clearGuess ( )

Clear the stored guess and the guess_file if any.

◆ clone()

MocoTropterSolver* OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::clone ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Create a new heap-allocated copy of the concrete object to which this Object refers.

It is up to the caller to delete the returned object when no longer needed. Every concrete object deriving from Object implements this pure virtual method automatically, via the declaration macro it invokes (e.g., OpenSim_DECLARE_CONCRETE_OBJECT()). Note that the concrete class overrides modify the return type to be a pointer to the concrete object; that still overrides the base class method because the return type is covariant with (that is, derives from) Object.

Implements OpenSim::MocoDirectCollocationSolver.

◆ createGuess()

MocoTrajectory OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::createGuess ( const std::string &  type = "bounds") const

Create a guess that you can edit and then set using setGuess().

The types of guesses available are:

  • bounds: variable values are the midpoint between the variables' bounds (the value for variables with ony one bound is the specified bound). This is the default type.
  • random: values are randomly generated within the bounds.
  • time-stepping: see MocoSolver::createGuessTimeStepping().
    Note
    Calling this method does not set an initial guess to be used in the solver; you must call setGuess() or setGuessFile() for that.
    Precondition(s):
    You must have called resetProblem().

◆ createTropterProblem()

std::shared_ptr<const TropterProblemBase<double> > OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::createTropterProblem ( ) const

◆ createTropterSolver()

std::unique_ptr<tropter::DirectCollocationSolver<double> > OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::createTropterSolver ( std::shared_ptr< const TropterProblemBase< double >>  ocp) const
protected

◆ get_exact_hessian_block_sparsity_mode()

const std::string& OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::get_exact_hessian_block_sparsity_mode ( ) const
inline

Get the value of the exact_hessian_block_sparsity_mode property.

◆ get_optim_jacobian_approximation()

const std::string& OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::get_optim_jacobian_approximation ( ) const
inline

Get the value of the optim_jacobian_approximation property.

◆ get_optim_sparsity_detection()

const std::string& OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::get_optim_sparsity_detection ( ) const
inline

Get the value of the optim_sparsity_detection property.

◆ getClassName()

static const std::string& OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::getClassName ( )
inlinestatic

This returns "MocoTropterSolver".

See getConcreteClassName() if you want the class name of the underlying concrete object instead.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

◆ getConcreteClassName()

const std::string& OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::getConcreteClassName ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Returns the class name of the concrete Object-derived class of the actual object referenced by this Object, as a string.

This is the string that is used as the tag for this concrete object in an XML file. Every concrete class derived from Object automatically overrides this method via the declaration macro it uses. See getClassName() to get the class name of the referencing (possibly abstract) class rather than the concrete object.

See also
getClassName()

Implements OpenSim::MocoDirectCollocationSolver.

◆ getGuess()

const MocoTrajectory& OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::getGuess ( ) const

Access the guess, loading it from the guess_file if necessary.

This throws an exception if you have not set a guess (or guess file). If you have not set a guess (or guess file), this returns an empty guess, and when solving, we will generate a guess using bounds.

◆ isAvailable()

static bool OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::isAvailable ( )
static

Returns true if Moco was compiled with the Tropter library; returns false otherwise.

◆ printOptimizationSolverOptions()

static void OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::printOptimizationSolverOptions ( std::string  solver = "ipopt")
static

Print the available options for the underlying optimization solver.

◆ safeDownCast()

static MocoTropterSolver* OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::safeDownCast ( OpenSim::Object obj)
inlinestatic

For use in MATLAB and Python to access the concrete class.

Example: cObj = MocoTropterSolver.safeDownCast(obj). This is equivalent to dynamic_cast<MocoTropterSolver*>(obj) in C++.

◆ set_exact_hessian_block_sparsity_mode()

void OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::set_exact_hessian_block_sparsity_mode ( const std::string &  value)
inline

Set the value of the exact_hessian_block_sparsity_mode property.

◆ set_optim_jacobian_approximation()

void OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::set_optim_jacobian_approximation ( const std::string &  value)
inline

Set the value of the optim_jacobian_approximation property.

◆ set_optim_sparsity_detection()

void OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::set_optim_sparsity_detection ( const std::string &  value)
inline

Set the value of the optim_sparsity_detection property.

◆ setGuess() [1/2]

void OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::setGuess ( MocoTrajectory  guess)

The number of time points in the trajectory does not need to match num_mesh_intervals; the trajectory will be interpolated to the correct size.

If you have updated the problem since the solver was initialized, you may need to invoke MocoSolver::resetProblem() for the provided guess to be recognized as compatible with the problem. This clears the guess_file, if one exists.

◆ setGuess() [2/2]

void OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::setGuess ( const std::string &  type)
inline

Use this convenience function if you want to choose the type of guess used, but do not want to modify it first.

◆ setGuessFile()

void OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::setGuessFile ( const std::string &  file)

This clears any previously-set guess, if any.

The file is not loaded until solving or if you call getGuess(). Set to an empty string to clear the guess file.

◆ solveImpl()

MocoSolution OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::solveImpl ( ) const
overrideprotectedvirtual

This is the meat of a solver: solve the problem and return the solution.

Implements OpenSim::MocoSolver.

◆ upd_exact_hessian_block_sparsity_mode()

std::string& OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::upd_exact_hessian_block_sparsity_mode ( )
inline

Get a writable reference to the exact_hessian_block_sparsity_mode property.

◆ upd_optim_jacobian_approximation()

std::string& OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::upd_optim_jacobian_approximation ( )
inline

Get a writable reference to the optim_jacobian_approximation property.

◆ upd_optim_sparsity_detection()

std::string& OpenSim::MocoTropterSolver::upd_optim_sparsity_detection ( )
inline

Get a writable reference to the optim_sparsity_detection property.
