Abstract :
An efficient algorithm is proposed for finding all solutions of nonlinear (not piecewise-linear) resistive circuits with mathematical certainty. This algorithm is based on interval analysis, the dual simplex method, and the contraction method. By numerical example, it is shown that the proposed algorithm could find all solutions of a system of 2000 nonlinear circuit equations in acceptable computation time.
