  • Abstract
    The paper describes two applications for numerical minimisation algorithms in electrical engineering. In the first application a design specification is interpreted in terms of a sum of design errors, which is subsequently minimised to complete the design. The second application relates to the solution of simultaneous nonlinear equations. There again, the solution errors are formed into a sum, which may be formally minimised to determine the solution point.
