Gas Reliability Analysis Integrated Library: algorithms for natural gas pipeline optimization, optimal control, and simulation

Instructions:

1. Add the IPOPT MEX binary to the root folder, available at https://www.coin-or.org/download/binary/Ipopt/ or included with the Opti toolbox at https://www.inverseproblem.co.nz/OPTI/

2. grail.exe can be compiled using the MATLAB compiler, and can be distributed for use with MATLAB runtime, which is available here: https://www.mathworks.com/products/compiler/matlab-runtime.html

3. Specify the folder containing the model and parameters in model_folder.txt (e.g. model30t) and add it to the root. Running grail will read the input in that folder and put output in the same folder.
