Thank you Jon,
I will try writing it in one equation as you suggested. Regarding the
experimental data, I have an initial potential curve described by a sum of
sines fit as well as initial positive/negative charge density curves
described by a specific equation I'll show in a file.
Thanks for the help!
Justin
