Fuel-Optimal Rocket Landing

I recently developed an interest in GNC applications for convex programming and implemented an SCP algorithm for a fuel-optimal rocket landing based on the paper Successive Convexification for Fuel-Optimal Powered Landing with Aerodynamic Drag and Non-Convex Constraints. While my implementation began using MATLAB and was almost convergent, I adopted Sven Niederberger’s implementation in Python which automates symbolic calculations. I modified his implmentation to implement lossless convexification and also include aerodynamic effects. The code is here and my write-up of the project is here.
