Advantages:• Easy to use (homework, exams)• Exact for linear functions

Disadvantages:• Not very accurate for nonlinear functions

Error is defined as:

Interpolation methodsPolynomial Interpolation

Two steps:

• obtain polynomial coefficients• evaluate the value of the polynomial at the desired location (xi)

For N data points, there is a unique polynomial (usually of order n-1) that goes through each pointThis is an interpolating polynomial, because it goes exactly through each data point

Interpolation methodsPolynomial Interpolation First step:• obtain polynomial coefficientsFor general n, the goal is to determine the coefficients a1, a2,…,an so that for all i = 1:n

iin yxp )(1

Pn-1(x) = a1 + a2x + a3x2 +…+ anxn-1

Writing these equations in matrix-vector form, we obtain

Vandermonde matrix

iin yxp )(1

Pn-1(xi) = a1 + a2xi + a3xi2 +…+ anxin-1

Interpolation in excelLookup Tables • Often, we need to retrieve data that is stored in a table• For example, consider these tables:

Interpolation in excelLOOKUP(Lookup_value,Lookup_vector,Result_vector)

search downthe lookupvector

find eithera matchingvalue, ora valuegreater thanthe lookupvalue, whicheveroccurs first go to the same position in

the result vector, and extractthe value there

Aluminum 2014-T6 10,600,000 0.101 60,000

Aluminum 6061-T6 10,000,000 0.098 37,000

Stainless Steel 304 28,000,000 0.284 30,000

Structural Steel A36 29,000,000 0.284 36,000

Since the properties to be retrieved are in columns, the table is called a vertical lookup table

The vertical lookup table command in Excel is:VLOOKUP(lookup value, table range, column number, true/false)

Interpolation in excelVLOOKUP(Lookup_value,Table_array,col_index_num,Range_lookup)

Which column number forextraction of result? 1, 2, 3 or 4?

optional argument:if FALSE, requiresan exact match

Interpolation in excelExamples

Interpolation in excelExamplesUsing VLOOKUP to find the freezing point of a 33% solution

The formula=VLOOKUP(F3,$A$3:$D$54,2,0)

Interpolation in excelOther ways to Lookup Tables Match(Lookup_value, lookup_array, match type) Returns the relative position in the array that matches the lookup value.

Index(range, position) Returns the value from the range in the position specified

Interpolation in excelExample

=MAX($B$5:$B$l6) 83119

Interpolation in excelExample

use the MATCH function to find the position of the maximum value in the rangeMATCH(lookup_value,lookup_array,match_type_num)=MATCH(83119,$B$5:$B$16,0)

Interpolation in excelExample

use the INDEX function to return the value in the same position in the array of months:

=INDEX( $A$5:$A$16,4)

=INDEX( $A$5:$A$16, MATCH( MAX( $B$5: $B$16), $B$5:$B$16,0))

Interpolation in excelLookup value for two-way tables

=VLOOKUP(Temp,Table, MATCH( Percent, P-Row, 1 )+ 1,1)

=VLOOKUP( M2, $A$4:$1$32, MATCH( N2, $B$3:$K$3,1 )+1, 1)

Interpolation in excelA Note About Lookup Tables

Lookup tables will not interpolate values! When looking up a numerical value, if an exact match is not

found (and the “TRUE” option allows for an approximate match), then the value searched for is rounded down to the next tabulated value.

We will illustrate this in the following example

Interpolation in excelExample

The population data of a town is given in the table

We want to use a lookup table to report the population for any year entered

Interpolation in excelExample

Note that using the VLOOKUP function (with the TRUE/FALSE option left off or set to TRUE) returns the population for the next year in the table lower than the input value:

Interpolation in excelLinear interpolation in excelFor each population interval, construct an IF statement to see if the input year falls within the interval range…If the input year is within the interval, then the interpolation formula should be used…

If the input year is not within the interval, then a space is entered into the cell to make it blank.

Interpolation in excelLinear interpolation in excel

IF statements add a great deal of flexibility to Excel spreadsheets – allow control over how calculations are performed

Lookup tables are convenient for accessing data that is stored in table form. Important to remember that lookup tables do not interpolate between values

Linear interpolation formulas can be added to tables in order to provide a better estimate of values between tabulated points

TREND can be used to perform linear interpolation between two adjacent data points.

TREND( known_y's, known_x's, new_x 's, const)

=TREND( B20: B21 , A20:A21, F18,1)

First step, interpolate the value at y = 56.3

Second step, interpolate the value at x = 76
