Abstract
Advanced machine design problems involving optimization concepts may be analyzed using spreadsheets. In this article, linear and nonlinear examples were modeled on current versions of Microsoft Excel, QuattroPro for Windows, and Lotus 1-2-3. A comparison of data entering and presentation of solutions is discussed. It is shown that although all three software packages solve the problems successfully, Excel appears to be best suited for these types of problems. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
