Open Script

Create an optimization problem, including an objective function and constraints, and display the problem.

Create the problem in Mixed-Integer Linear Programming Basics: Problem-Based.

steelprob = optimproblem;
ingots = optimvar('ingots',4,1,'Type','integer','LowerBound',0,'UpperBound',1);
alloys = optimvar('alloys',4,1,'LowerBound',0);
weightIngots = [5,3,4,6];
costIngots = weightIngots.*[350,330,310,280];
costAlloys = [500,450,400,100];
cost = costIngots*ingots + costAlloys*alloys;
steelprob.Objective = cost;
totalweight = weightIngots*ingots + sum(alloys);
carbonIngots = [5,4,5,3]/100;
carbonAlloys = [8,7,6,3]/100;
totalCarbon = (weightIngots.*carbonIngots)*ingots + carbonAlloys*alloys;
molybIngots = [3,3,4,4,]/100;
molybAlloys = [6,7,8,9]/100;
totalMolyb = (weightIngots.*molybIngots)*ingots + molybAlloys*alloys;
steelprob.Constraints.conswt = totalweight == 25;
steelprob.Constraints.conscarb = totalCarbon == 1.25;
steelprob.Constraints.consmolyb = totalMolyb == 1.25;

Display the problem.

Input Arguments

collapse all

Optimization problem, specified as an OptimizationProblem object.

Example: prob = optimproblem; prob.Objective = obj; prob.Constraints.cons1 = cons1;

Tips

  • showproblem is equivalent to calling all of the following:

  • For a variable that has many bounds or constraints, use writeproblem to generate a text file containing the objective, constraint, and bound information.
