Homopolymer deviation penalties. Illustrating homopolymer correction penalties as calculated in FAAST, for peak-value deviations ranging from -2.5 to 2.5 for homopolymers of length n = [1,8]. The maximum allowed flowpeak range, k = 0.25 (25%), as well as the minimum gap penalty of 7 (corresponds to the proportionality constant α = 28) was used for the calculation were the calculated penalty is rounded to the closest integer.
