Fitting periodic data.

This is excellent statistical reporting. You would rival native English speakers with this type of analysis description. Good job!!

This is good, but I would write "When analysing periodical data we might need to improve the basic square model...

Or you can make it completely passive "When analysing periodical data the basic square model may need improvement by turning it into..

One efficient way to model l this cycling behavior is by adding cosines and sines to the function coefficients, adding as many possible new coefficients to the original function, interchanging the cosines and sines in every coefficient in the system. 

This sentence is a bit complicated. The dependent clause is improved by using a co-ordinating conjunction, as you can not have a dependent phrase attached to a dependent phrase. 

One efficient way to model this cycling behaviour is by adding cosines and sines to the function coefficients, adding as many possible new coefficients to the original function and interchanging the cosines and sines in every coefficient in the system. 

This sentence is still too long. Here it is split into two clauses.
