Dependent Variable

Post by Archiver »


Hi everyone,

I would like to define a dependent variable. How can I do it?
Here is a simple example:

C(t+1)=C(t)+Y(t+1)
C(1)=C_base_year

Where, t is a set (shows the year), Y is a binary variable and C is a dependent variable.
It is clear that C is fixed in the base year(t=1) and it depends on Y variable for t>1.
If I define it as a variable, it is constant for other years too(C(t)=C_base_year). So, how should I define C?

Thanks
Masoud

It is necessary to mention that C is not a parameter and there are some constraints on it.

Hi Masoud,

You need to use the conditional operator ($) for the constraints:

constraint_ini.. C('1') =e= C_base_year;
constraints(t)$(ord(t) > 1).. C(t+1) =e= C(t) + Y(t+1);


Cheers,
Pedro

Dear Pedro,
Thanks for your response. As I said, when I consider C such as what you suggested, C becomes constant for every t:
C(t)=C_base_year
I don't know whether the problem is in my definition or anything else(such as the solver)?
I used CPLEX(MIP)...

And one other question:
Does software solve all equations together? If so, is there any way to force software solve equations in sequence?
For example, solve C(t+1) =e= C(t) + Y(t+1) after C(t) =e= C(t-1) + Y(t)...

Thanks

Hi

You could also just fix the first value:

C.FX(“1”) = C_base_year;

In this case there is no need for the constraint_ini equation.
Cheers

Hi Renger,

You are right. I forgot that option that is much simpler, and I would say elegant.

Pedro
