I try to solve the Catenary problem with the method of Potential Energy - what is not correct in Minimize and Miner functions or in the model?

Two Mathcad 15 files in attach

Thanks!

I have done it! Only in Prime with new solver! And the PE (potential energy) must have not 1 but 2 argument!

And we need use not a lot of variables with index y.0, y.1 etc, but vectors x, y etc!
