| Description: | Coefficient of the hour in the simulation the maintenance event started. |
| Detail: |
Constraint Maintenances Start Hour Coefficient is the coefficient of the hour in the simulation the maintenance event started.
With the coefficient represented by a(i,j) the following term is added to the formulation:
... + a(i,j) × Maintenance Start Hour ... {≤, ≥, =} bjThis property can be used to create constraints that control the gap between or overlap of two maintenance events.
Example:
The following constraint states that Maintenance "MINOR" must occur at least 50 hours after maintenance "MAJOR".
| Constraint | Property | Value | Data File | Units |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gap | Sense | ≥ | - | |
| Gap | RHS Custom | 50 | - |
| Constraint | Maintenance | Property | Value | Data File | Units |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gap | MAJOR | Start Hour Coefficient | -1 | hrs | |
| Gap | MINOR | Start Hour Coefficient | 1 | hrs |
