Decomposes thermogravimetry
analysis data into n components, through pseudo-Gaussians,
to find the underlying parameters (A, B, C)
for each component.
Applies the Python 'minimize' function,
in the 'scipy.optimize' module.
Alternative Excel data can be uploaded.
Draws a plot of the original and
the adjusted data.
Computation structure — A PHP file
(this page: 'P.cane.php') calls (via
'action=...') an intermediate PHP file ('Cane.php'), which
(through $_POST) sends the problem data as command line arguments to
a Python script. This last does the computing, and makes
'system' call(s) to 'gnuplot', for the final (temporary) webpage.
Files involved:
P.cane.php (this one),
Cane.php,
cane.py.
Keywords: cane, biomass, thermogravimetry,
Python, gnuplot.
