Inverse is a general purpose computer program for solving inverse and optimization problems.
The program has been designed in particular for solving problems where complex numerical simulations (e.g. by the finite element method) are involved in the definition of the objective and constraint functions.
The original motivation for design of the program came from the area of metal forming where industrial simulation programs were mainly designed without having in mind application to the solution of optimization problems, while increasing needs were arising especially for application of numerical simulations in inverse identification of material parameters.
