Barrier Relax Constraints

Type : Selection

Range : The settings listed below

Default : Inequality

This option indicates whether a relaxation approach is applied to the constraints. Using a relaxation approach may be helpful when the problem has degenerate or difficult constraints. Possible values are:

  • None

  • Equality

  • Inequality

  • All

With setting ‘None’ no constraints are relaxed. A relaxation approach is applied to general equality or inequality constraints for settings ‘Equality’ and ‘Inequality’ respectively. The last setting implies that a relaxation approach is applied to all general constraints.

This option has no effect on the Active Set and SQP algorithms.
