3. Variables ​

1. Decision Variables ​

This context reuses decision variables from the stowage context and does not define independent decision variables.

2. Auxiliary Variables ​

This context does not define independent auxiliary variables.


4. Predicates ​

This context does not define independent predicates.


5. Sets ​

This context does not define independent sets; its limits range over the aircraft, stowage, and flight-phase sets.


6. Intermediate Values ​

1. Linear Density ​

Description: Linear weight density per fuselage zone.

linearDensityzone=∑j∈zoneloadWeightjzoneLength

2. Surface Density ​

Description: Surface weight density per zone.

surfaceDensityzone=∑j∈zoneloadWeightjzoneArea

7. Assertions ​

This context does not define independent assertions; it consumes the aircraft, stowage, and MAC context data used by its limits.


8. Constraints ​

1. Linear Density Limit ​

[CN]: 线密度限制

Description: Linear density per zone must be within limits.

s.t.linearDensityMinzone≤linearDensityzone≤linearDensityMaxzone,∀zone∈Zones

2. Surface Density Limit ​

Description: Weight-CG combination must be within the envelope per flight phase.

s.t.(weightphase,mac)∈envelopephase,∀phase∈FlightPhases

6. Payload Limit ​

[CN]: 载荷限制

Description: Payload must be within planned and maximum bounds.

s.t.plannedPayload≤payload≤maxPayload

7. Total Weight Limit ​

[CN]: 总重量限制

Description: Total weight per flight phase must not exceed maximum.

s.t.totalWeightphase≤maxTotalWeightphase,∀phase∈FlightPhases

9. Objective Function (if applicable) ​

This context does not define an independent objective function.


10. Algorithm References ​

This context does not define an independent algorithm reference.
