(!****************************************************** Mosel Example Problems ====================== file blending.mos ````````````````` TYPE: Blending problem DIFFICULTY: 1 FEATURES: simple LP problem, formulation of blending constraints DESCRIPTION: Several ores are blended to a final product that must have a certain quality (`grade'). We wish to determine the quantity of every ore to be used in the blend with the objective to maximize the total profit (calculated as sales revenues - raw material cost).
