Optimisation Problem Definition

The modelling of voltammetric experiments requires the definition of the system under study (in terms of mass transport, boundary conditions and heterogeneous/homogeneous chemical reactions) as well as of the electrical perturbation applied. These factors will obviously define the electrochemical response but also the optimum numerical method to employ. In the following chapters, general procedures for the easy implementation of numerical methods to solve different electrochemical problems will be given along with indications for their optimisation in some particular situations. 

A well known problem is the definition of the relative weighting factors which may be avoided when using subsequent optimisation steps, switching old objectives into constraints.
