Abstract This paper presents a numerical performance comparison of a modern version of the well-established sequential
quadratic programming (SQP) method and the more recent spherical approximation method (SAM). The comparison is based on the application of these algorithms to examples with nonlinear objective and constraint functions, among others: weight minimization problems in structural shape optimization. The comparison shows that both the SQP and SAM-algorithms are able to converge to accurate minimum weight values. However, because of the lack of a guaranteed convergence property of the SAM method, it exhibits an inability to consistently converge to a fine tolerance. This deficiency is manifested by the appearance of small oscillations in the neighbourhood of the solution.
