Given your starting values, there is nothing to optimize: > f <- function(x, A=10, b=152, T=100, c=100) A*(1-exp(-b*(x-T) - c*(sqrt(x) - sqrt(T)))) > f(time) [1] -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf [16] -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf [31] -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf -Inf [46] -Inf -Inf -Inf
same with A = 500 So try to find a better model, or more sensible starting values.
