Abstract

In the above article 1, we made a mistake in (2). We correct it as follows. align* array{c Vₒ₀ₑ^{ASC}\\ Vₒ₀ₑ^{DES}\\ 0 array} \!\!\!=\!\!\! & array{ccc - {{ ₀ₒ₂} { ₀ₒ₂}}& {{ ₀ₒ₂} { ₀ₒ₂}}& {{ ₀ₒ₂}}\\ - {{ ₃₄ₒ} { ₃₄ₒ}}& {{ ₃₄ₒ} { ₃₄ₒ}}& {{ ₃₄ₒ}}\\ 0&1&0 array}\! \\ array{c {{Vᵉ}}\\ {{Vⁿ}}\\ {{Vᵘ}} array} =& array{ccc uₑ^{ASC}&uₙ^{ASC}&uᵤ^{ASC}\\ uₑ^{DES}&uₙ^{DES}&uᵤ^{DES}\\ 0&1&0 array} array{c {{Vᵉ}}\\ {{Vⁿ}}\\ {{Vᵘ}} array}. 2 align*
