Simulating circuits with impasse points

In this paper circuits with impasse points, i.e. with jumps in their configuration space will be analyzed. These non-regularized circuits exhibit a fold in their configuration space, which can lead to difficulties during the simulation with standard circuit simulators like SPICE. The former developed geometric approach to simulate these circuits without regularization will be extended by a detailed discussion of which coordinate system has to be chosen. Furthermore, two new approaches for a numerically efficient calculation of the hit points will be shown.
