(1) I keep trying to enter a reply, and it just never appears. What's wrong?

(2) How do I get code from the Standard GUI to paste into a reply?

I have recently come across this queastion regarding Z-transforms in maple and am struggling with how to complete the question. Any steps on how to proceed with the folloqwing questions would be greatly appreciated. I have done the first part but cannot fathom where to go with this one.

1. For the difference equation

x[n+2]-(α+β)x[n+1]+α*β*x[n]=n/3^n,  x[0]=a, x[1]=b,

(a) Find the general solution for x[n] in terms of the parameters α,β,a and b

(b)Find the solutions for ithe two cases α=-β and α=β

(c)Examine both solutions found in (b) when α=1, for various values of a and b, choosing values to demonstrate different behaviours of the solutions.

Thanks for reading, any help with steps would be great.

This might be a ridiculous question, but what is the easiest way to check the monotonicity of a function? I didn´t find anything helpful in the Maple Help, so maybe one of you could give me a nudge here :)

Hello!

So as the title says i have a problem with solution of second order differential equation system.

The problem is that after i set some initial conditions and check the solution when the time equals zero, the solution graph is completely different from my initial conditions which is obviously incorrect. I know that i can change "spacestep" parameter, but i am not sure if it is the only way to fix the problem. Are there any other ways to fix this?

Here is a part of my code if it helps

r0=1.570796327
theta0=6.000000000

the following cmd gives me three 3 solutions: -1, 1,sqrt(2), even if I specificlly assume that a is not equal to neither 1 or -1....

([RealDomain[solve]((1/(a-1)-1/(a+1))*(2*a^2-2)/a = 4/surd(2, 2), useassumptions = true)] assuming a <> 1, a <> -1

why does this wired thing happen?

hi, the equations read as 

eq:=[2*x-0.2e-1*y-2.04*sqrt(-v^2+1)*v, 2*y-0.2e-1*x-2.16*sqrt(-u^2+1)*u, 2*u+2.16*u^2*y/sqrt(-u^2+1)-2.16*sqrt(-u^2+1)*y, 2*v+2.04*v^2*x/sqrt(-v^2+1)-2.04*sqrt(-v^2+1)*x] ;

i do as follows using DirectSearch package v.2

i find the solutions not the same,some time the results not much difference,but another,sols1 have one solution,sols2 have three solutions.in some time,some solutions are lost，the result show  me  random.may i have run the command serveral times? regards.

I need to minimize an Integration

Is there a package or an interactive package management utilities?

While I was using DEplot3d, I want to draw a space curve, the equation of which is a list of functions of the vars in DEs. I put them in "scene", but Maple told me this:

Error, (in DEtools/DEplot) Invalid scene; must be list of vars: scene = ...

Now I know that I cannot put functions in "scene", but I am wandering if there are some other way so I can draw this kind of space curve.

Thank you very much!

Hi there,

I am trying to compute the following, and I am getting this error.

> A := map(convert, M, unit_free)*Unit('m'*(1/'s'^2));
(I had to put the Unit('m'*(1/'s'^2)) because the original units were kNm/s^2 (kg), and even though I simplified it, it's still using kNm/s^2, and leaves the m/s^2 for some reason when I try to remove the units. I tried simply changing the units on the original matrix, but the units menu has disappeared from the right-click menu!!)

> B := map(convert, K, unit_free);

Loading RealDomain;

solve;

Error, (in assuming) when calling 'Engine:-Dispatch'. Received: 'should not happen: Rename expects the input to contain unknown functions'

Why is it giving me this error? omega is an unknown variable that I am trying to solve for. I am going a modal analysis, so maybe there is a better way to find omega?

Any help appreciated!

Thanks guys for your help, I know I am asking sometimes some stupid questions, I spend hours trying to do that, but when I am stock.... I need some help... and when the problem is solved I can see how unintelligent am I .

I want to  get   nonlinear equations solutions using 'solve',but i always meet that the program running long long time,i want to stop this 'solve' procedure giving a limit time.how do i.can you help me.thanks a lot.

I have document Maple.mw. I want to copy all text to mathtype. How do I copy and paste?

Why does the following not work?

factors(x^4-1)

Why does Maple 2015 solve this very simple system incorrectly?

solve({abs(a-b)=0, sqrt(2*b+c)=0, c^2-c+1/4=0});

With Maple 12 no problem:

solve({abs(a-b)=0, sqrt(2*b+c)=0, c^2-c+1/4=0});

Hi,

I try to solve a system of two second order non linear ordinary differential equations using Maple that I expect to find singularities as blow-up points.

So, I would like to know how to compute values of singular points when existing.

Thank you in advance. 

ode1: -0.1*diff(u(z),z$2)+(z-2*diff(v(z)^-1/2,z))*diff(u(z),z)+(3-2*diff(v(z)^-1/2,z$2)*u(z)=0

ode2: 0.1*diff(v(z),z$2)+0.01*z*diff(v(z),z)+0.02*v(z)-u(z)*v(z)^1/2=0

Ics: u(0)=0, v(0)=0, D(u)(0)=0, D(v)(0)=0
