% CAR RENTAL

% A small car rental company has a fleet of 94 vehicles distributed
% among its 10 agencies. The location of every agency is given by its
% geographical coordinates X and Y in a grid based on kilometers. We
% assume that the road distance between agencies is approximately 1.3
% times the Euclidean distance (as the crow flies). The following
% table indicates the coordinates of all agencies, the number of cars
% required the next morning, and the stock of cars in the evening
% preceding this day.

Choosing the mode of transport

% function Result = choosingthemodeoftransportEx(PriLev)
%
% Creates a TOMLAB MIP problem for choosing the mode of transport
%
% CHOOSING THE MODE OF TRANSPORT
%
% A company in the south-west of France needs to transport 180 tonnes
% of chemical products stored in depots D1 to D4 to the three
% recycling centers C1, C2, and C3. The depots D1 to D4 contain
% respectively 50, 40, 35, and 65 tonnes, that is 190 tonnes in
% total. Two modes of transport are available: road and rail. Depot
% D1 only delivers to centers C1 and C2 and that by road at a cost of
% $ 12k/t and $ 11k/t. Depot D2 only delivers to C2, by rail or road
% at $ 12k/t and $ 14k/t respectively. Depot D3 delivers to center C2
% by road ($ 9k/t) and to C3 by rail or road for $ 4k/t and $ 5k/t
% respectively. The depot D4 delivers to center C2 by rail or road at
% a cost of $ 11k/t and $ 14k/t, and to C3 by rail or road at $ 10k/t
% and $ 14k/t respectively.
%
% Its contract with the railway company for the transport of chemical
% products requires the company to transport at least 10 tonnes and
% at most 50 tonnes for any single delivery. Besides the standard
% security regulations, there are no specific limitations that apply
% to road transport. How should the company transport the 180 tonnes
% of chemicals to minimize the total cost of transport?

Depot location

% function Result = depotlocationEx(PriLev)
%
% Creates a TOMLAB MIP problem for depot location
%
% DEPOT LOCATION
%
% A large company wishes to open new depots to deliver to its sales
% centers. Every new set-up of a depot has a fixed cost. Goods are
% delivered from a depot to the sales centers close to the site.
% Every delivery has a cost that depends on the distance covered. The
% two sorts of cost are quite different: set-up costs are capital
% costs which may usually be written off over several years, and
% transport costs are operating costs. A detailed discussion of how
% to combine these two costs is beyond the scope of this text — we
% assume here that they have been put on some comparable basis,
% perhaps by taking the costs over a year.
%
% There are 12 sites available for the construction of new depots and
% 12 sales centers need to receive deliveries from these depots.
%
% The following table gives the costs (in thousand $) of satisfying
% the entire demand of each customer (sales center) from a depot (not
% the unit costs). So, for instance, the cost per unit of supplying
% customer 9 (who has a total demand of 30 tonnes according to the
% next table) from depot 1 is $ 60000/30t, i.e. $ 2000/t. Certain
% deliveries that are impossible are marked with "Inf".

% clients are located at Brain-sur-l’Authion, Craquefou, Guérande, la
