Comment on "Nonlinear Optimization: Examples and Modeling 2"

The theory is described well and detailed.

In the example "Linear objective function and nonlinear restriction" it is not clear how the restrictions are established. The text should described the constraints, so that someone who reads the assignment can set up the constraints by himself.

In example "Nonlinear objective function and linear restriction" it is not clear where the objective function comes from. In our opinion and out of the assignment it must be like this :

Fehler beim Parsen (http://mathoid.testme.wmflabs.org Serverantwort ist ungültiges JSON.): 10x_1 + 5 x_2 \rightarrow max!

But then it would not be an example with a nonlinear objective function, but rather a linear optimization problem. Therefore it does not match in this thread. To get a nonlinear example you have to transform the assignment, which is not easy in this case. The constraints are correct and you can get them out of the text.

Furthermore it would be great if the examples would be illustrated by little drafts or pictures.
