Abstract

Оn the ground of the phi-function for two polytopes a mathematical model of the problem of packing homothetic polytopes into a cuboid of a minimum volume is constructed. A number of characteristics of the mathematical model are pointed out. Based on the characteristics a way of construction of starting points, a rapid algorithm of searching for local minima and an original approach for directed non-exhaustive search of local extrema to obtain a good approximation to a global extremum are offered. Numerical results are given.
