I am looking for a spreadsheet to compute the precession of Mercury fom the Schwarzchilg metric and the geodesic equations. Are you aware of such an example?

When I try "touch and drag" in Maple documents, the documentation for example, I end up selecting text instead of scrolling. Unfortunately the alternatives for scrolling are a) the scrollbar, b) page-up/down or c) moving the cursor. Each of those alternatives is about 2.5311 orders of magnitude more inconvenient than touch&drag.

Does anybody know if its possible to get Maple (18) to scroll instead of select text when I touch the screen?

Hello,

I am using Maple 17 to solve some equations. I am solving these equations with the solve command. There are some bounds on the parameters so I am including these inequalities. I have 4 variables, so I solve for 3 to get them in terms of the last one.

It returns piecewise solutions as per the inequalties as I hoped.

However for two ranges of the inequalities I get [] which I assume means no solution.

For another range I get an expression for each of my paramters.

For the final range I get 0 . What does this 0 mean and what do the [] mean?

I wondered if 0 meant that all paremeters equalling zero was a solution, but this is false.

Thanks

Hi there

There seems to be a bug when evaluating elliptic integrals using assuming. Here's an example:

INT:=Int(1/sqrt(a*x^3+1),x=0..X);

is our integral for some a. Now evaluate the integral using assuming on X in different ways:

INT2:=simplify(value(INT)) assuming X>0, a>0, a<1;

INT3:=simplify(value(INT)) assuming X<0, a>0, a<1;

These give analytic solutions which are different. Now plot them both and compare to the numeric solution

plot([subs(a=0.1,INT2),subs(a=0.1,INT3),subs(a=0.1,INT)],X=-1..1,colour=[red,green,blue]);

I'm finding that the red curve which should work for X>0 is wrong, while the green one which is for X<0 is ok for X either sign. [blue is the correct answer - numerically!]

Any ideas?

Good afternoon sir.

Please let me know how to upgrade mu current version Maple17 to Maple 18.

Hi everyone.

I'm trying to visualize some some field lines for a 3D magnetic field I have simulated, and I have read that the Student[VectorCalculus] package is the best package for this type of visualization. I tried implementing it as described online and in the manual, and I got an error:

Error, (in plots/fieldplot3d) no non-zero vectors found

Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this issue?

Attached is the Maple document I am using. The section entitled "Problem Area" is where the issue is.

Dear all,

I need your help.

I compute the exact solution u(x,y,t) os PDE.
My code : PDEs.mw

I would like to plot the exact solution of my PDE.

My method work well but  when I put a:=1; b:=1; In the next lines there is no change, always I have a and b in my equation.

If i fix the time, "t=1 or 2 " for example; In the last lines i plot( u(x,y,2)); but doesn't work also.

Then animation in "t" how....

Thanks for your help.

Dear All

Please help me for using fsolve

the fsolve command doesnt work!

I am new user of Maple. I have an expression like f(x,y)/g(x,y) and I want to have Maple name f(x,y) as something simple like "h" so that later equations write h/g(x,y) instead of the complete f(x,y)/g(x,y), and also to be able to simplify other equations in terms of h.

For example, a=(x+1)(y-5)^2/(x+y-3). Can I get Maple to let h=(x+1)(y-5)^2, so that I get h/(x+y-3) when I ask for a?

Sorry if this question is basic (and my math terminology incorrect), but I have been trying for a while.

firstly apologies in advance for stuff in this question such as "triangle symbol",  my computer is pretty old. 

ok so i was confused a bit here, what i'm trying to do is write a maple procedure that computes Af for a given f contained in V . except we only need to correct the bug in the script below. This script demonstrates such a procedure in the case that omega is a square. The domain is given here as the negative set of a function F contained in V .  I have left in notes where/what i think we need to do but i dunno how to...

N:=10 ; # Global Var
F:=(x,y)->sgn(abs(x-N/2)+abs(y-N/2)-N/4);
Average := proc(F, f0) local f, i, j;
f := f0; # !!!!!!!!!!!!!! something is bad here...
for i to N do for j to N do
if F(i, j) < 0 then
f[i, j] := (f0[i - 1, j] + f0[i + 1, j] + f0[i, j + 1] + f0[i, j - 1])/4 ;
end if;
end do;end do;
return f;
end proc;
f0:=Matrix(N,F); # just to have something to test the procedure
Average(F,f0); # does not return the expected average, modifies f0

the necessary information we were given to produce this so far was..

Let N be a positive integer and [N] = {i contained in N | 1<= i <=N }  Let "Omega" C {(i,j) contained in [N] x [N] | 2<=i,j<=N-1} be a subset. Let V = R^([N]x[N]) be the vector space of real valued functions [N]x[N] -> R
and A,
"triangle symbol":V->V (average) and "triangle symbole" (Laplacian) be the linear maps such that
[Af](i; j) = f(i; j)      if (i; j) not contained in "Omega"   OR

                             [f(i, j + 1) + f(i, j - 1) + f(i + 1, j) + f(i - 1, j)]/4 if (i,j) is contained in "Omega"

["traingle symbol"f](i,j) =  0 if (i,j) isnt contained in "Omega"   OR

                            ( f(i,j) - [f(i, j + 1) + f(i, j - 1) + f(i + 1, j) + f(i - 1, j)]/4 )    if (i,j) is contained in "Omega"

 Please and thank you for any help in advance <3

Hello,

Maple needs 827 characters to write a equation of a straight line.
Is that true or what am I doing wrong?   

Can anybody help me or give a direction to handle with such problems?

Putting
  assume(2<alpha , alpha<=4);about (alpha);
before it does not help either.

f:=-(6*(3*alpha^2*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))^4/(alpha-1)^4-12*alpha^2*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))^3/(alpha-1)^3-6*alpha*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))^4/(alpha-1)^4+16*alpha^2*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))^2/(alpha-1)^2+24*alpha*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))^3/(alpha-1)^3+3*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))^4/(alpha-1)^4-8*alpha^2*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))/(alpha-1)-24*alpha*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))^2/(alpha-1)^2-12*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))^3/(alpha-1)^3+8*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))^2/(alpha-1)^2+8*alpha+(8*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2)))/(alpha-1)-7))/(alpha*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))^2/(alpha-1)^2-2*alpha*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))/(alpha-1)-(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2))^2/(alpha-1)^2+(2*(alpha-1+sqrt(alpha^2-3*alpha+2)))/(alpha-1)-1)^4;

Hello,

• Is there a simple way to find the domain for the real solutions of f(x)?

• And is there a way to let maple get the part of f(x) with the sqrt?
   (not by typing it by hand as I dit below)

• Is there a way to write the summary of the found domains in one line?

Thanks for your help.
