Detailed Description

Packing circles in a rectangle of minimal size.

Author

This example shows how to setup quadratic constraints in SCIP when using SCIP as callable library. The example implements a model for the computation of a smallest rectangle that contains a number of given circles in the plane or the computation of the maximal number of circles that can be placed into a given rectangle.

Suppose that n circles with radii \(r_i\) are given. The task is to find coordinates \((x_i, y_i)\) for the circle midpoints and a rectangle of width \(W \geq 0\) and height \(H \geq 0\), such that

  • every circle is placed within the rectangle ( \(r_i \leq x_i \leq W-r_i\), \(r_i \leq y_i \leq H-r_i\)),
  • circles are not overlapping \(\left((x_i-x_j)^2 + (y_i-y_j)^2 \geq (r_i + r_j)^2\right)\), and
  • the area of the rectangle is minimal.

Alternatively, one may fix the size of the rectangle and maximize the number of circles that can be fit into the rectangle without being overlapping.
