Any Idea why PuLP is ignoring binary variables?

Some points should be considered. First, you defined the variable $FlowInternal_{j}$ as the slack variables on the constraints $C_2$ and $C_3$ but, forgot to limit it on the objective function. (For …

Find the list with the fewest elements whose cumulative sum reaches threshold

I think the appropriate way to do this is what was proposed by Prof. Rubin, but if you want to use a mathematical approach, the following formulation would be helpful. \begin{eqnarray} \text{Max/Min} …

Inventory Continuity Equation

It seems you would need to tweak the mentioned model to be close to the standard Multi item-Multi period lot-sizing problem. The following formulation can give you some good starting points. \begin{ar …

Using PULP to model machines in a factory

I assumed that the mode indicator is a variable otherwise, what you are looking for can be applied by a simple if-then loop on the constraints. To define the first row of your logical expression, it i …

How to linearize the multiplication by a binary decision variable?

I assumed that your variables are $X_{w}$, $X_{s}$, $X_{e}$, and $p_{t}$. Then as @RobPratt suggested, we can use two separate disjuncts. $$ W_t X_w+S_t X_s - 0.1 X_e \geq m(1-z_t) \quad (1)$$ $$ p_t …
