Best use of steel bar cut for mechanical study












6












$begingroup$


I have available a steel bar with length of 3000 mm.



I intend to get the best use of cutting out of this bar.



I need to cut this steel bar in the following lengths: 230mm, 260mm, 320mm, 350mm and 650mm.



enter image description here



How to get cut options "close" to the length of 3000 mm.



Example:



230 + 230 + 260 + 260 + 320 + 320 + 350 + 350 + 650;


-> 2970



I have the code below. I know I will have to use the "Nearest" function, but I am not able to apply it:



lista={230, 260, 320, 350, 650};
resultados=Join@@DeleteCases[IntegerPartitions[#,{1,[Infinity]},lista]&/@Range[3000],{}];
And@@Thread[Total/@resultados<=3000];
contagem=Map[Lookup[Counts[#],lista,0]&,resultados];
contagem//Short


In the my example, i get groups that are smaller that 3000, but wish the values that are "nearest" of the value of 3000

x = {x1, x2, x3, x4, x5};
Maximize[{x.lista, x.lista <= 3000, ## & @@ Thread[x >= 0]}, x, Integers]



{3000, {x1 -> 0, x2 -> 0, x3 -> 5, x4 -> 4, x5 -> 0}}




If you have to use at least one of each piece:



Maximize[{x.lista, x.lista <= 3000, ## & @@ Thread[x >= 1]}, x, Integers]



{3000, {x1 -> 2, x2 -> 1, x3 -> 4, x4 -> 1, x5 -> 1}}




All solutions that use all of 3000mm:



FrobeniusSolve[lista, 3000]



{{0, 0, 0, 3, 3}, {0, 0, 5, 4, 0}, {0, 1, 2, 6, 0}, {0, 4, 3, 1,
1}, {0, 5, 0, 3, 1}, {1, 0, 1, 7, 0}, {1, 2, 5, 0, 1}, {1, 3, 2, 2,
1}, {2, 1, 4, 1, 1}, {2, 2, 1, 3, 1}, {3, 0, 3, 2, 1}, {3, 1, 0, 4,
1}, {4, 3, 0, 0, 2}, {4, 8, 0, 0, 0}, {6, 0, 1, 0, 2}, {6, 5, 1, 0,
0}, {7, 4, 0, 1, 0}, {8, 2, 2, 0, 0}, {9, 1, 1, 1, 0}, {10, 0, 0, 2, 0}}




Or use IntegerPartitions as follows:



Map[Lookup[Counts[#], lista, 0] &, IntegerPartitions[3000, All, lista]]



{{0, 0, 0, 3, 3}, {6, 0, 1, 0, 2}, {4, 3, 0, 0, 2}, {3, 1, 0, 4,
1}, {2, 2, 1, 3, 1}, {0, 5, 0, 3, 1}, {3, 0, 3, 2, 1}, {1, 3, 2, 2,
1}, {2, 1, 4, 1, 1}, {0, 4, 3, 1, 1}, {1, 2, 5, 0, 1}, {1, 0, 1, 7,
0}, {0, 1, 2, 6, 0}, {0, 0, 5, 4, 0}, {10, 0, 0, 2, 0}, {9, 1, 1, 1,
0}, {7, 4, 0, 1, 0}, {8, 2, 2, 0, 0}, {6, 5, 1, 0, 0}, {4, 8, 0, 0, 0}}




You can also use Solve and Reduce:



x /. Solve[{x.lista == 3000, ## & @@ Thread[x >= 0]}, x, Integers]
Reduce[{x.lista == 3000, ## & @@ Thread[x >= 0]}, x, Integers][[All, All, -1]] /.
Or | And -> List



{{0, 0, 0, 3, 3}, {0, 0, 5, 4, 0}, {0, 1, 2, 6, 0}, {0, 4, 3, 1,
1}, {0, 5, 0, 3, 1}, {1, 0, 1, 7, 0}, {1, 2, 5, 0, 1}, {1, 3, 2, 2,
1}, {2, 1, 4, 1, 1}, {2, 2, 1, 3, 1}, {3, 0, 3, 2, 1}, {3, 1, 0, 4,
1}, {4, 3, 0, 0, 2}, {4, 8, 0, 0, 0}, {6, 0, 1, 0, 2}, {6, 5, 1, 0,
0}, {7, 4, 0, 1, 0}, {8, 2, 2, 0, 0}, {9, 1, 1, 1, 0}, {10, 0, 0, 2, 0}}
