Release notes:
Added
next_step!andset_v_wind_ground!accept the keyword argumentinterpolate(defaultfalse,
the previous behaviour), which is passed on tocalc_turbulent_wind: the turbulence is then
interpolated trilinearly between the grid points of the wind field instead of being read at the
nearest one, so the kite no longer flies through steps in the wind. Without turbulence it has no
effect.examples_3d/parking_wind_dir.jlswitches it on via itsINTERPOLATEparameter.test/test-update-sys-state.jlcoversupdate_sys_state!for bothKPS3andKPS4: every field
against the getter it comes from, thezoomscaling,nothingset values logging asNaN, the
turn rate around the body z-axis, and the shortest-angle difference that keepsheading_rateand
azimuth_ratefree of spikes at the wrap boundary.
Changed
calc_turbulent_windno longer duplicates the wind field lookup: it forwards to
AtmosphericModels.calc_turbulent_wind, which the two fixes below had brought it in line with
anyway. The results are bit-identical, the signature(am, pos, upwind_dir, t)is unchanged, and
the new keyword argumentinterpolateis passed through, so the turbulence can now be
interpolated between grid points instead of being read at the nearest one.set_v_wind_ground!had a second copy of the mean wind profile for the case
use_turbulence == 0. It now takes both the mean and the turbulent wind from
calc_turbulent_wind, so the height profile has one implementation. The turbulent branch
used to evaluate the wind field atpos_kite(s)[3]and ignore theheightargument; it now
usesheight, which every caller in this package passes ascalc_height(s)anyway.
Fixed
calc_turbulent_windscaled the sampled turbulence withrel_turbo(am)only. As of
AtmosphericModels0.3.8 the stored wind field has the reference intensity instead of being
pre-scaled byuse_turbulence, so the factor is now applied here; without it, every simulation
would have flown at full Cabauw turbulence regardless of the setting.AtmosphericModelscompat
raised to0.3.8accordingly — with an older version the field is pre-scaled and the factor
would be applied twice.calc_turbulent_windtook therel_turbscorrection forset.v_wind(rel_turbo(am)) while
the wind field itself may have been loaded for a different ground wind speed. It now reads
am.wf.v_wind_gnd, the speed the loaded field was generated for, so the two can no longer
disagree.

Release notes:
Added
next_step!accepts the keyword argumentv_wind_vert(default0.0, fully backward compatible)
for injecting a constant vertical wind component (updraft/downdraft) at the kite. It is stored in
the model struct and added tos.v_wind[3]byset_v_wind_ground!on top of whatever the wind
model (laminar or turbulent) already produces, so turbulent vertical wind is not overwritten.
Positive is up. Onlys.v_windis affected —s.v_wind_gndands.v_wind_tetherstay unchanged,
soupwind_dirand tether drag are unaffected; a future phase 2 could extend the tether. Since
v_wind_kite(s)returnss.v_wind, the component shows up in the loggedv_wind_kitestate
automatically.- Support for Julia 1.13:
juliacompat entry extended to1.11, 1.12, 1.13(also in thedocs,
examplesandexamples_3dprojects), new default manifestManifest-v1.13.toml.default(with
some packages downgraded to reduce the size of the system image), andbin/installoffers
Julia 1.13 as a third choice (the default if it is already the active juliaup channel).

Release notes:
Changed
- The system of equations of
find_steady_state!(KPS4) is now square and well-posed. Before, one
unknown had no effect, one equation was missing (its entry stayed0), and the x equation of the
point p8 was used twice, so the elevation of the kite could drift fromset.elevationby several
degrees, depending on rounding. Now the elevation of the kite (pos_kite, so that
calc_elevation(s)returnsset.elevation) is prescribed instead of the z balance of the kite
points C and D (the kite can only be fully balanced at its natural elevation), C and D enter as
symmetric (x) and antisymmetric (y) combination, and the unused unknown is fixed to zero. The
initial state of the simulation changes slightly.
Fixed
find_steady_state!(KPS4) is more robust: if the firstnlsolveattempt fails or returns
a result with a large residual, it is retried without autoscaling and then by continuation
(solving for an easierstiffness_factor/deltafirst and stepping towards the requested values).
Before, convergence depended on tiny floating-point differences, so e.g. thehydra20_426
project of KiteControllers.jl failed to initialise on Julia 1.13 while it worked on Julia 1.12.- a residual entry that is not used as equation could keep the value
1e6after an infeasible
solver step; it is now reset on every evaluation - the warning "Warning in test_initial_condition!" for infeasible solver steps is now a debug message
find_steady_state!now also warns if the solver stopped because the steps became small while the
residual norm is still above1e-3; before, such a result was accepted silently. The warning now
includes the residual norm.
Added

Release notes:
Fixed
- The state of the winch (brake on/off, rate limited set speed) is now updated once per time step
innext_step!(and reset ininit!to the initial set speedset.v_reel_outand the brake
state after construction, so that repeated calls ofinit!give the same result) instead of on
every call of the residual function. Before, it depended on the number of residual evaluations
of the DAE solver, so tiny numerical differences (e.g. between Julia versions) could switch the
brake at a different moment. With a winchv_minof 0.15 m/s this made the reel-out speed of the
hydra20 simulations of KiteControllers.jl run away on Julia 1.13. The simulation results change
slightly. find_steady_state!(KPS3) now finds a real equilibrium. Before,nlsolveusually stopped
because its steps became tiny, with the accelerations of the tether particles still at about
25 m/s², and on some machines it printedfind_steady_state!: solver did not converge!. The
unknowns are now the angles and relative stretches of the tether segments instead of the offsets
of the particle positions, the solver starts from a slightly stretched tether (the spring force
has a kink at zero stretch), and, as for KPS4, the elevation of the kite is prescribed instead of
its vertical force balance, socalc_elevation(s)returnsset.elevation. The tether particles
and the horizontal force balance of the kite are now solved toftol = 1e-6; a warning is only
printed if this fails. The horizontal residuals are taken in the plane of the tether, so the
result no longer depends onupwind_dir. The initial state changes: for example, with a 392 m
tether the kite starts at 70° instead of 64.3°.
Changed
- requires WinchModels 0.3.12 (for
update_winch_state!andcalc_acceleration(...; update_state)) - support Julia 1.12 and 1.13 only, as WinchModels 0.3.12 and KiteUtils do:

Julia 1.12 instead of 1.11, and the docs no longer mention Julia 1.11 - the default manifests for Julia 1.12 and 1.13 use WinchModels 0.3.12 and the latest versions of
the other dependencies
- The state of the winch (brake on/off, rate limited set speed) is now updated once per time step
