Hello, I know Casadi and know the guys from KU Leuven who developed it. But I currently do not use any of this fancy stuff. I mainly use Python, Assimulo and C++ for modelling and control. A little bit Matlab and Python for controller development, but currently our controllers are very basic, just non-linear dynamic inversion and a little bit optimal control. Next week I will start to work on feed-forward control, a very basic form of model predictive control.
You can find some of my software at https://bitbucket.org/ufechner . Using Julia instead of Python, C++ and Matlab would be great. I will try to find an MSc student to do a little pilot project with Julia.
