The fuzzy crystallization algorithm: a new approach to complex systems modeling
Abstract:
A new identification method for fuzzy modeling is introduced. Since the method has some analogy with the process of material crystallization in nature, the name of fuzzy crystallization algorithm (FCA) is given to this novel approach. This method accomplishes structure identification and parameter identification at the same time, and possesses the properties of simplicity, flexibility, and high calculation speed. Compared with other modeling strategies, it is easier to construct a model with a specific accuracy. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the performance of this approach.

Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
