Airborne Wind Energy Library

Introduction

Talk by Giovanni Licitra at the Airborne Wind Energy Conference 2017: https://videoportal.uni-freiburg.de/video/OpenAWE

OpenAWE is a library of airborne wind energy models, and trajectory optimization toolbox for airborne wind energy systems. Optimal control problems are formulated using OpenOCL, and solved using CasADi. Check the README on github for more details.
