... monotonically decreasing, it is a one-to-one function from (0, + 00) onto (0, w). Consequently, for any value 0 < e(O, t) < w, there is a unique value z such that e(O, t) = g(z). In general, this equation does not have a closed-form solution. It can, however, be solved numerically. Applying Newton's method to g...
