As I understand it, -constraint- only accepts constraints
definable as equalities.
Perhaps there is some algebraic
re-expression of the model which
would satisfy this inequality indirectly.
On the other hand: If this
assumption is realistic, you should
not need a constraint. If this
assumption is not realistic, what
justifies this desire for force?
