CheckMate is a MATLAB-based tool for modeling, simulating and investigating properties of hybrid dyn

function [f,g] = ...
    stretch_const_fmincon(X,n_vector,C_matrix,d_vector,t0,tf)

% Compute objective function for the optimization problem in the flow pipe
% segment approximation procedure for `nonlinear` dynamics.
% 
% Syntax:
%   "[f,g] = stretch_func_ode(X,sys_eq,ode_param,n_vector,C_matrix,d_vector,t0,tf)"
%  
% Description:
%   Compute the following objective function value for the given "x0" and "t"
% 
%
%
%   "max (x0 in X0, t in [0,T]) n_vector'*x(t,x0)"
%
%
%
%   where "n_vector" is the normal vector and "x(t,x0)" denotes the solution
%   to the nonlinear differential equation.
%
% Implementation:
%   The ODE solution "x(t,x0)" is computed for the given "t" and "x0" using
%   the ODE solver "ode45" in MATLAB.  The optimization variables for the
%   objective function are passed in as a single variable "X" whose first
%   "n" element is the vector "x0" and last element is the time "t".  The
%   objective function for the optimization is a function of "X"
%   only. "sys_eq", "ode_param", "n_vector","C_matrix", "d_vector", "t0",
%   and "tf" are optional parameters (See MATLAB help on "constr.m" for more
%   detail). "g" represents the constraints for the optimization problem,
%   which are that "x0" must be in the set "X0" (specified by the
%   "C_matrix"-"d_vector" pair) and that "t" must lie in
%   "[t0,tf]". "ode_param" contains optional parameters for the ODE file
%   (see MATLAB help on "odefile" for more detail).
