Minimize function with respect to multiple variables, with constraints

Hi,

I have a function f(p, T) that needs to be minimized. How can I find the minimum value with 55 < p < 170, and 380 < T < 583?

Thanks for the help.

Provided that the function has a scalar output, then

lb = [55; 380];
ub = [170; 583];
x0 = (lb+ub)./2;  %somewhere in the range

fmincon(@(pT) f(pT(1), pT(2)), x0, [], [], [], [], lb, ub)
