Compounding matrices

Before performing a validation method for a certain application, the scope of the method and its validation criteria should be defined first. The parameters to be investigated include compounds, matrices, types of formation, qualitative or quantitative method, detection or quantitation limit, linear range, precision and accuracy, types of equipment that will be used, and the location of the system. These steps of the validation method are illustrated in Fig. 1, which has been modified from Ref. [11],... 

For the calculation of cofactors we use algorithms based on work by Lowdin [16], and Prosser and Hagstrom [25,26]. An overview of the theory of determinants, cofactors, adjugates and compound matrices can be found in a book by Aitken [17]. The symmetry and possible orthogonality in the orbital spaces give rise to a block-structure in the overlap matrices. This structure is exploited [22,27] to minimise the size of the matrices in the L-d-R decomposition, described below, an n3 process for each matrix.

The th order compound matrix B(k) is a matrix with the ktb order minors (A111 order sub-determinants) as elements. So the kth order adjugate can be expressed in terms of the klb order compound matrix of the first order adjugate. 

This is the characteristic equation for the eigenvalues posed by the Orr-Sommerfeld equation that also can be viewed as the dispersion relation of the problem. So the task at hand is to obtain a combination of a and u> for a given Re, such that the solution of OSE satisfies (2.4.8). The stiffness of OSE causes the numerical solution to lose the linear independence of different solution components corresponding to the different fundamental solutions. This is the source of parasitic error growth of any stiff differential equation. To remove this problem in a straight forward manner, one can use the Compound Matrix Method (CMM). 

All the four equations (2.4.15a) to (2.4.15d), reduce to constant coefficient ODEs at the free stream, for which one can use the values provided in Eqn. (2.4.12) for the compound matrix variables. It is easy to see that Eqn. (2.4.15c) has three characteristic roots at the free stream given by —a, —Q and. The first two roots correspond to the fundamental solutions 4>i and (p3, but the third root is not only extraneous, but is also unstable ...

Third, the influence of the other wine compounds (matrix effects) is far from negligible. It is obvious that if the spectral bands of a target compound overlap with those of water or ethanol, present in high proportions, the measurement sensitivity for the compound in question will be severely compromised. Similarly, interactions between constituents may lead to displacement of absorption bands.
