In this work, we focus on the development of a novel polynomial approximation method, which is based on orthogonal expansion. Although the basis set elements of the expansion will be chosen polynomials or multinomials to this end, the method is open to any kind of complete set of basis functions. The projection integrals are replaced with certain quadratic forms over the matrix representation of the independent variable. This brings the universality and reduces the computational complexity drastically. Hence, it can be conjectured that this method will find quite large area of applicability. Another advantage of this technique is, that it is not limited to univariate cases, and can be used for the multivariate cases by taking necessary precautions to get efficiency

A new version of High Dimensional Model Representation (HDMR) is presented in this work. Vector HDMR has been quite recently developed to deal with the decomposition of vector valued multivariate functions. It was an extension from scalars to vectors by possibly using matrix weights. However, that expansion is based on an ascending multivariance starting from a constant term via a set of appropriately imposed conditions which can be related to orthogonality in a conveniently chosen Hilbert space. This work adds more flexibility by introducing certain matrix valued univariate support functions. We assume weight matrices proportional to unit matrices. This work covers only the basic issues related to the fundamental elements of the new approach.

This paper develops and uses a computation model to explore the transient ignition dynamics of catalytic combustion in a stagnation-flow configuration. The analysis considers the elementary heterogeneous chemistry associated with catalytic behavior at the surface. It also considers gas-dynamic effects in the boundary layer, including temporal and spatial pressure variations. The gas-dynamic effects are included through the axial momentum equation, which has been neglected in previous analyses of unsteady stagnation flows. In addition to the physical interpretation of ignition transients, the paper presents a mathematical and computational analysis and comparison of the constant-pressure and compressible stagnation-flow equations. The constant-pressure equations, as commonly formulated and used, are a system of differential-algebraic equations (DAE) that have an index greater than two. This high-index behavior is responsible for severe numerical difficulties in regions of fast transients or stringent numerical error control. This paper relaxes the constant-pressure assumption using a compressible-flow formulation, which extends the range of physical validity and reduces the index of the transient stagnation-flow problem while preserving stagnationflow "similarity.".
