“…Figures of merit are suggested to measure success in numerical validation of IS data.In a companion communication, [1] we note the usefulness and need for data validation of immittance spectroscopy (IS) measurements and models. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] Immittance (e. g. admittance, Y, impedance, Z, complex capacitance, C = (jw) À1 Y, complex inductance, L = (jw) À1 Z) is known under various other names and appears in modified form too in many other fields of natural sciences and engineering [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] where validation of measurements and verification of model data is often likewise required. They basically adhere all to the same principles, comply with the same relations and face the same dilemmas as presented here.For inertial systems (materials, interfaces or devices) whether oscillatory (dynamic) or at rest, we derived for linear, stable & causal systems [13][14][15][16][17] in the real angular frequency domain (Fourier space), <efÀjsg ¼ w; s ¼ s þ jw; 0 s 2 R; w ¼ 2pf 2 R; ðAEjÞ 2 ¼ À1 using integral transform properties (theorems) [2,18,19] for continuous, bounded (convergent), rational immittance, of finite degree, deg N deg D < 1 with zeros (roots of N), z i 2 C and poles (roots of D), p j 2 C À :¼ fs 2 C : <es < 0g Hilbert integral transform (HT) and Kramers-Kronig (KK) integral transform (KKT) relations, [1] (1) with 2a 2 + a + 1 = b; * denotes complex conjugation.…”
