The above command plots one curve alright. I want four such curves to go in the same figure using command like

plot(Equn1,Equn2,Equn3,Equn4,view(x=1000..5000)

I am not getting by the above command what I want. Can any one help. A shortcut method is required for me to repeat many times.

Thanks for help.

Hello!, Is there any package to do arithmetic operations on finite field? 
 

Example: Z(5) - over field 5: calculate with remainders:

(x^8 + 2x^4 + 1) / (x^5 + 4x^3 + x^2 + 3x +3).

thanks.

Below I wanted Maple to calculate the 4. degree Taylorpolynomium of a function f around x = 7. As shown below, Maple delivers a polynomial, but not a function definition. In other words one cannot have the polynomial evaluated at a specific value. The reason for this is obvious: The value 3 of x is passed to the command, implying 3 = 7 is a parameter to the command: Therefore the error message. I solved the problem by using the unapply command, but this operation is a bit tedious. I think I remember there is another more simple operator to make the same happen in Maple. I hope someone can remind me of that one!

Regards,

Erik

Hi

Is there any idea using Maple  to compute the leg lengths  in Stewart-Gough platform ( see the following figure)

I would like to make a code using cross-product and the unit Normal N 

·       P is of length 13 and displaced in the Y direction by 10 degrees from the vertical (Z axis)

·       N is displaced in the X direction by 18 degrees from the vertical (Z axis)

·       L_B is position [7 5] from the bottom plate centre in the XY plane

·       L_T is in position [3.5 4.2] from the top-plate centre in the AB plane

Many thanks for any help

I need to calculate the following complex integral:

oint_C { [(z^4exp(2z)+1)/(z+i)^3] - [(z^3+z)/{(z-2i)(z-5)}] + 8*Pi*exp } dz,

Where C is the circumference |z-1| = sqrt(11/2), positively oriented.

Someone can help me, I already researched but I can not integrate.

I know that is easy for you but i am new in this topics.I want to write a code to generate a matrix which have entries consist of matrices(it has differnt dimensions)

L := sum( 1/ln(k), k=2..n ) * ln(n)/n;
        
limit(L, n=infinity);
                               0
# Should be 1

Just curious: in Maple 2017, is it OK?

First at all, congratulation for the new update Maple 2017!!.                                        I'm a personal developer about renewable energy hybrid systems models. It is possible get data about irradiance or wind speed from the new world maps?. It will be very interesting!!!                                                                                   Thanks!!!!

I want to perform curvefitting on my data but Maple is not importing the data from the Excel file. Below is the command I used.

What is the Phi function.  And more importantly how do I find out in general waht a symbol represents.  I input Phi in help menu, nothing useful comes up.  I use Function advisor, don't see a Phi symbol or anything beginning with Phi.  Isn't there a way I can select the symbol in the output and get help on it by pressing a F key?

Ok so I try FunctionAdvisor(describe Phi) - it gives me general Lerch Phi function.  But when I go to help page on LerchPhi, nowhere does it use Greek letter Phi to describe the function.  So I finally figured it out as I was composing this question.  But in why does the help page not use the symbol for the function that is displayed in the worksheet?

I can't figure how to use the showsource() command. There are no examples given.

kernelopts(version);
Maple 2017.0, X86 64 WINDOWS, May 17 2017, Build ID 1231047

If I use it on a local proc() it gives an error. Since it needs a file name

f := proc(x) if x <= 2 then print(x); print(x^2) end if; print(-x); x^3 end proc:
showsource(f);

Error, (in fopen) file or directory does not exist

From help:

The showsource command is similar to showstat, but displays the original 
source code corresponding to the requested statements, if that source 
code is available and, in the case of procedures retrieved from 
libraries, kernelopts(keepdebuginfo) is true. If source code is 
not available, showsource raises a warning and then produces 
the same output as showstat.

But there is not one single example of how to use this command. I tried it on a local file (.mpl) in the same folder, but it complained.

restart;
currentdirName :="C:\\bla\\bla";
currentdir(currentdirName);
showsource("maple_proc.mpl");

Error, invalid input: showsource expects its 1st argument, p, 
to be of type {`::`, name}, but received maple_proc.mpl

If I try

showsource(int);
Warning, no source information available; using showstat instead

Just looking for an example on how to use this command. (why help does not show an example?)

HOW to dsolve fractional differential boundary conditions?

FRACTION.mw
 

Download FRACTION.mw

I want to solve the system of differential equations
sys :=
  diff(x(t,s),t) = y(t,s),
  diff(y(t,s),t) + x(t,s) = 0;
subject to the initial condition
ic := x(0,s) = a(s),
      y(0,s) = b(s);
where a(s) and b(s) are given.

This looks like a system of PDEs but actually it is a system
of ODEs because there are no derivatives with respect to s.
It is easy to obtain the solution by hand:

x(t,s) = b(s)*sin(t) + a(s)*cos(t)
y(t,s) = b(s)*cos(t) - a(s)*sin(t)

I don't know how to get this in Maple, either through dsolve()
or pdsolve().

Actually both dsolve({sys}) and pdsolve({sys}) do return
the correct general solution, however dsolve({sys, ic})
or pdsolve({sys, ic}) produce no output.  Is there a trick
to make the latter work?

Maple 2017 has launched!

Maple 2017 is the result of hard work by an enthusiastic team of developers and mathematicians.

As ever, we’re guided by you, our users. Many of the new features are of a result of your feedback, while others are passion projects that we feel you will find value in.

Here’s a few of my favourite enhancements. There’s far more that’s new - see What’s New in Maple 2017 to learn more.

MapleCloud Package Manager

Since it was first introduced in Maple 14, the MapleCloud has made thousands of Maple documents and interactive applications available through a web interface.

Maple 2017 completely refreshes the MapleCloud experience. Allied with a new, crisp, interface, you can now download and install user-created packages.

Simply open the MapleCloud interface from within Maple, and a mouse click later, you see a list of user-created packages, continuously updated via the Internet. Two clicks later, you’ve downloaded and installed a package.

This completely bypasses the traditional process of searching for and downloading a package, copying to the right folder, and then modifying libname in Maple. That was a laborious process, and, unless I was motivated, stopped me from installing packages.

The MapleCloud hosts a growing number of packages.

Many regular visitors to MaplePrimes are already familiar with Sergey Moiseev’s DirectSearch package for optimization, equation solving and curve fitting.

My fellow product manager, @DSkoog has written a package for grouping data into similar clusters (called ClusterAnalysis on the Package Manager)

Here’s a sample from a package I hacked together for downloading maps images using the Google Maps API (it’s called Google Maps and Geocoding on the Package Manager).

You’ll also find user-developed packages for exploring AES-based encryption, orthogonal series expansions, building Maple shell scripts and more.

Simply by making the process of finding and installing packages trivially easy, we’ve opened up a new world of functionality to users.

Maple 2017 also offers a simple method for package authors to upload workbook-based packages to the MapleCloud.

We’re engaging with many package authors to add to the growing list of packages on the MapleCloud. We’d be interested in seeing your packages, too!

Advanced Math

We’re committed to continually improving the core symbolic math routines. Here area few examples of what to expect in Maple 2017.

Resulting from enhancements to the Risch algorithm, Maple 2017 now computes symbolic integrals that were previously intractable

Groeber:-Basis uses a new implementation of the FGLM algorithm. The example below runs about 200 times faster in Maple 2017.

gcdex now uses a sparse primitive polynomial remainder sequence together.  For sparse structured problems the new routine is orders of magnitude faster. The example below was previously intractable.

The asympt and limit commands can now handle asymptotic cases of the incomplete Γ function where both arguments tend to infinity and their quotient remains finite.

Among several improvements in mathematical functions, you can now calculate and manipulate the four multi-parameter Appell functions.

Appel functions are of increasing importance in quantum mechanics, molecular physics, and general relativity.

pdsolve has seen many enhancements. For example, you can tell Maple that a dependent variable is bounded. This has the potential of simplifying the form of a solution.

Plot Builder

Plotting is probably the most common application of Maple, and for many years, you’ve been able to create these plots without using commands, if you want to.  Now, the re-designed interactive Plot Builder makes this process easier and better.

When invoked by a context menu or command on an expression or function, a panel slides out from the right-hand side of the interface.

Generating and customizing plots takes a single mouse click. You alter plot types, change formatting options on the fly and more.

To help you better learn Maple syntax, you can also display the actual plot command.

Password Protected Content

You can distribute password-protected executable content. This feature uses the workbook file format introduced with Maple 2016.

You can lock down any worksheet in a Workbook. But from any other worksheet, you can send (author-specified) parameters into the locked worksheet, and extract (author-specified) results.

Plot Annotations

You can now get information to pop up when you hover over a point or a curve on a plot.

In this application, you see the location and magnitude of an earthquake when you hover over a point

Here’s a ternary diagram of the color of gold-silver-copper alloys. If you let your mouse hover over the points, you see the composition of the points

Plot annotations may seem like a small feature, but they add an extra layer of depth to your visualizations. I’ve started using them all the time!

Engineering Portal

In my experience, if you ask an engineer how they prefer to learn, the vast majority of them will say “show me an example”. The significantly updated Maple Portal for Engineers does just that, incorporating many more examples and sample applications.  In fact, it has a whole new Application Gallery containing dozens of applications that solve concrete problems from different branches of engineering while illustrating important Maple techniques.

Designed as a starting point for engineers using Maple, the Portal also includes information on math and programming, interface features for managing your projects, data analysis and visualization tools, working with physical and scientific data, and a variety of specialized topics.

Geographic Data

You can now generate and customize world maps. This for example, is a choropleth of European fertility rates (lighter colors indicate lower fertility rates)

You can plot great circles that show the shortest path between two locations, show varying levels of detail on the map, and even experiment with map projections.

A new geographic database contains over one million locations, cross-referenced with their longitude, latitude, political designation and population.

The database is tightly linked to the mapping tools. Here, we ask Maple to plot the location of country capitals with a population of greater than 8 million and a longitude lower than 30.

There’s much more to Maple 2017. It’s a deep, rich release that has something for everyone.
