A study on the optimal design method of pill kinds firing time sequence

Weapon system fires multi kinds of pills to operate different combat tasks. As the pills of multi kinds should be projected through the same firing channel, the appropriate pill kind decision and the optimum firing time sequence would be studied. A new optimal design method of pill kinds firing time sequence was brought forward for the first time. The 0–1 variables were constructed to describe the pill kind decision variables, and a 0–1 programming was built to give an optimization model for firing time array of different pill kinds. In this way, the firing matching problem was turned into a 0–1 programming model, which would be conveniently solved by programming in LINGO. A typical application example was presented, and the optimization firing scheme given by the calculating results illustrated that this method was concise and efficient. It would provide a new thought for the compositive utilization of multi kinds of pills in weapon systems.
