Hi all,
I hope this is the right sub-forum to post this address.
I am trying to make use of some Mathcad in-built capabilities, like for instance the Minimize or Maximize function.
Please have a look at the attached file. I have some functions defined there which ultimately are used inside the final function called Function1 (blue background).
For Function1, I want to apply the mathcad defined Minimize function, which needs the variation intervals for the variables of the function to be defined (along with guess values). I can do that OK, and I do get a relevant result when applying the Minimize function on Function1 (the result consists of the variables values, within the defined interval for each variable, for which Function1 will be minimum). I store this result in the variable called "Result" and then I compute the value of the Function1 function with the elements of the "Result", aiming to obtain the minimum of Function1 (yellow background).
The problem that I have is that it does not seem to be a minimum; meaning I can find other values for the variables, within the defined intervals, for which the value of Function1 is even smaller (see area marked in green). So am I doing something wrong or is this simply a strange function?
Regards,
Cristian
