New constructions for amicable orthogonal designs are given. These new designs then give new amicable Hadamard matrices and new skew-Hadamard matrices. In particular we show that if p is the order of normalized amicable Hadamard matrices there are normalized amicable Hadamard matrices of order (p 1)u + 1, u > 0 an odd integer. Tables are given for the existence of amicable and skew-Hadamard mat...
