Question: ( 3 0 marks ) The Potential Energy P ( x 1 , x 2 ) of a dynamic problem, which consists of two wheeled

(30 marks) The Potential Energy P(x1, x2) of a dynamic problem, which consists of two wheeled carts connected to each other is given by the equation below. P(x1,x2)=5.2x12+1.8x222 x1x2 x12x2 In order to determine the displacements (x1, x2) of the carts, the potential energy needs to be minimised. Minimize this function using the Nelder-Mead simplex method, starting with x 0=[x1 x2]=[7.05.0], an initial step size c=2,\alpha =1.0,\beta =0.5,\gamma =2.0,\rho =0.5 and tol =0.001. Perform the Nelder_Mead search until the convergence criterion (f(xL) f(xCE))2+(f(xM) f(xCE))2+(f(xH) f(xCE))23< tol is satisfied.
