Evaluate alternative methods for solving the simultaneous equations: Stuhrmann and Parallel Axis module #140

Closed skrueger111 closed 2 months ago

skrueger111 commented 1 year ago

The methods used to calculate errors on the parameters, especially for the parallel axis theorem, should be evaluated further. This likely will involve testing alternative methods for solving the set of simultaneous equations, perhaps using the optimizer in scipy as is done for the stoichiometry module. Monte Carlo error analysis may need to be used here as well to obtain another estimate of the errors on the parameters.

New version of stuhrman_parallel_axis.py was pushed to Github. Simultaneous equations are solved as described here https://github.com/madscatt/zazzie/wiki/Stuhrmann-Parallel-Axis-Method. Errors on the resultant parameters are now calculated correctly (at least in my opinion).
