A Nonlinear Programming Model for the Solution of the Train Seat Capacity Distribution Problem

열차의 좌석용량 배분을 위한 비선형계획모형

In this paper we present a nonlinear programming model for the solution of the train seat capacity distribution problem (TSCDP) with a numerical example. The TSCDP model finds the optimal capacity distribution methods which minimize the sum of the differences between the demands and the seat capacities. Also the TSCDP provides the information on the degree of the discrepancy between the demand and the seat capacities. One can use the TSCDP model as a tool for planning train seat capacity planning.
