# Mass, cost and performance tradeoff # Scope: Two supplied alternatives, minimizing cost and mass; pairwise dominance only. # Status: illustrative worked example; engineering review pending. # Inputs are example values. Checks are editable example requirements, not standards. costA = 10 massA = 2 kg costB = 12 massB = 1.5 kg costDifference := costA-costB massDifference := massA-massB [kg] tradeoff := costDifference*massDifference [kg] check opposing objectives example: tradeoff < 0 kg scenario alternative: costA = 8
