Abstract
The main objective of this work was to find suitable algorithms to solve strongly nonlinear circuits through the harmonic balance technique. To compare them, two different nonlinear circuits are analyzed: a one-diode mixer equivalent circuit and a cubic nonlinear conductance damped with a resonant circuit. Also analyzed, by means of one of the presented algorithms, is the Van der Pol oscillator with the damping coefficient ranging from 0 to 10
