This well-known problem[^1][^2] models the ascent of a rocket through the atmosphere, and we restrict here ourselves to vertical (one dimensional) trajectories.

-
The state variables are the altitude $r$, speed $v$ and mass $m$ of the rocket during the flight, for a total dimension of 3.

The rocket is subject to gravity $g$, thrust $u$ and drag force $D$ (function of speed and altitude). The final time $T$ is free, and the objective is to reach a maximal altitude with a bounded fuel consumption.

The Hamiltonian is affine with respect to the control, so singular arcs may occur, as well as constrained arcs due to the path constraint on the velocity (see below).
