  • Abstract
    A homotopy method for obtaining DC solutions of nonlinear circuits is proposed. The homotopy method is called double-bounded homotopy and it is used to find multiple DC solutions. This method presents a novel stop criterion which is based on the property of tracing a double bounded trajectory. The main properties of the homotopy are explained by using the Lambert-W function.
