I tried loading the last latest update of the physics package for Maple 2022 version 1409

It seems all the versions of the physics updates from version 1340 to 1409 are missing?  I can download 1339 and 1410 but all the versions in between are missing. 

MapleCloud opend from Maple2025 and 2024.

Has this extended scrollbar always been like this?
Maybe it is a browser thing.
Which browser is Maple using?
Are there any settings I could adjust?

I aim to conduct a numerical frequency sweep analysis on a nonlinear, coupled two-degree-of-freedom vibration model and compare the results with the analytical solution. However, I am currently facing two main difficulties:

  1. I am unsure how to determine whether the computed response has reached a steady state. If I simply use the maximum value to represent the steady-state amplitude, it can be misleading—since transient responses prior to reaching steady state may yield a higher peak, as seen in the uploaded code.

  2. I do not know how to properly select the steady-state result from the previous frequency as the initial condition for the next frequency step.

Maplesoft now has a new approach to providing customer support for Maple users! The Maple Customer Support Updates allows Maplesoft to provide important updates to our customers as fast as possible. These updates contain a series of improvements and fixes to any area of the Maple library, enabling a rapid response for customer reports and requests. When a Maple user reports a bug or weakness, or requests some missing functionality that can be addressed with an update to the Maple library, such an update can now be provided immediately after the fix or improvement is developed. Furthermore, the update will not just be available to that customer who reported it, but also to any other Maple users who wishes to use them. Of course, not all reports will be able to be addressed quickly, and for those that are, it will be up to the developer's discretion whether to make the fix or improvement available via these new Maple Customer Support Updates. Please note that these Updates may contain experimental elements that could change in subsequent official releases.

The updates are available as a workbook containing a Maple library file that can be downloaded and installed from the Maple Cloud. To install the Maple Customer Support Updates from the Maple Cloud,

  • Click the MapleCloud icon in the upper-right corner of the Maple GUI window and select Packages.
  • Find the Maple Customer Support Updates package and click the Install button, the last one under Actions.
  • To check for new versions of Maple Customer Support Updates, click the MapleCloud icon and select Updates. If the cloud icon in the Actions column of Maple Customer Support Updates has the word Update beside it, then you can click on it to download a new update.

To make the process of installing and maintaining the Maple Customer Support Updates as smooth as possible, we've also introduced a new Maple library package, SupportTools, with 3 commands, Update, Version, and RemoveUpdates.

Load the SupportTools package:
with(SupportTools)

[RemoveUpdates, Update, Version]

(1)

Check which version is currently installed:
Version()

`The Customer Support Updates version in the MapleCloud is 10. The version installed in this computer is 9 created April 22, 2025, 15:14 hours Eastern Time, found in the directory C:\Users\Austin\Maple\toolbox\2025\Maple Customer Support Updates\lib\Maple`

(2)


Update to the latest version (you could also call Update(latest)):

Update()

Warning, You have just upgraded from version 9 to version 10 of the Customer Support Updates. In order to have this version active, please close Maple entirely, then open Maple and enter SupportTools:-Version() to confirm the active version.

 


Check the version again:

Version()

`The Customer Support Updates version in the MapleCloud is 10 and is the same as the version installed in this computer, created April 22, 2025, 15:14 hours Eastern Time.`

(3)


Remove all updates for this release of Maple (except for those installing the SupportTools package itself):

RemoveUpdates()RemoveUpdates()

Warning, You have just reverted to version 4 of the Customer Support Updates. This version contains no actual updates other than the SupportTools package itself. In order to verify this, please close Maple entirely, then open Maple and enter SupportTools:-Version() to verify that the version number is 4.

 


Note: You can also specify which version to install by supplying the version number as the argument to the Update command:

Update(10)

Warning, You have just upgraded from version 4 to version 10 of the Customer Support Updates. In order to have this version active, please close Maple entirely, then open Maple and enter SupportTools:-Version() to confirm the active version.

 

Download SupportTools.mw

In Maple 2025.0, the SupportTools package is not installed by default. For the first installation, you can also run the command
PackageTools:-Install(4797495082876928); instead of installing it from the Maple Cloud.

The Maple Customer Support Updates were inspired by and modelled after the existing Physics Updates which many Maple users may be famiilar with already. Going forward, Physics Updates will only contain changes to the Physics package itself. All other library updates will be available via the Maple Customer Support Updates. For compatibility with the pre-existing Physics:-Version command, calling SupportTools:-Version(n) is equivalent to calling SupportTools:-Update(n), and similarly SupportTools:-Version(latest) and SupportTools:-Update(latest) are both equivalent to the single call SupportTools:-Update().

The Maple 2024 default Document is largely unreadable to me. the multiplication sign is a minute dot that I miss most of the time on very high resolution monitors.

What really works well for me is Maple Input as was used in Maple 9.5. A Pleasure to work with. Using Maple 2024 it is a real pain to "go figure" all the time.

I tried the Global Config, but there is no way to set the default font and the defualt color so I can get the exact same text and color as Maple 9.5.
After I set the colors to bright red, and change to Monospace 12 font and use mapleinput, all is well.
However there is no way to save this setup as the configuration has no way to set font and color. It does set mapleinput at least.

So how do I fix this GLOBALLY so I dont have to run into Maple2024's microscopic math.

I am trying to create a diagram in Maple using its plotting tools and simulate a simply connected domain and multiple paths between two points.

My first try is the following

with(plots); with(plottools)

 

 

curveDomainPts := [[-1, 0], [-.7, 1.2], [0, 1.5], [.7, 1.2], [1.2, 0], [.7, -1.2], [0, -1.4], [-.7, -1.2], [-1, 0]]; domain := polygon(curveDomainPts, color = "LightBlue", transparency = .4); z0 := [-.8, .6]; z := [.9, -.4]; curve1_pts := [[-.8, .6], [-.3, 1.0], [.4, .5], [.9, -.4]]; curve2_pts := [[-.8, .6], [-.7, 0.], [.2, -.6], [.9, -.4]]; curve1 := pointplot(curve1_pts, color = red, linestyle = dot, thickness = 2, connect = true); curve2 := pointplot(curve2_pts, color = green, linestyle = dot, thickness = 2, connect = true); pt1 := pointplot([z0], symbol = solidcircle, symbolsize = 15, color = black); pt2 := pointplot([z], symbol = solidcircle, symbolsize = 15, color = black); label1 := textplot([z0[1], z0[2]-.1, z__0], font = [Helvetica, Bold, 14]); label2 := textplot([z[1], z[2]-.1, "z"], font = [Helvetica, Bold, 14]); display(domain, curve1, curve2, pt1, pt2, label1, label2, scaling = constrained, axes = none, title = "Curved Domain with Arbitrary Paths")

 
 

NULL

I would like to ask if I could create something like that in Maple or should I use another software to draw it?

Dear all
How can I compute the integral from a to b of   y^2 cot(y)

Thank you

I use  Maple 2015 and I try to understand how the simplification rules apply in the case of the expression 

f := n -> (ln(x)^n)^(1/n)

Here n is assumed to be a strictly positive and I consider only the cases "n is an integer" or "1/n is an integer".

All the questions are orange written in the attached file and resumed below:

  1. Why simplify(f(2)) simplifies f(2) whereas simplify(f(n)) doesn't simplifies f(n) for any integer n > 2?
     
  2. Why simplify(f(1/n)) simplifies f(1/n)?
     
  3. Why simplify(f(3)) with adhoc assumptions returns a simplified expression of some form whereas, for any integer n > 3,  simplify(f(n)) with (the same corresponding) adhoc assumptions returns a simplified expression of a complete different form than with n=3?

Can you please have a look to it and give me some clarifications?

Thanks in advance

When using FunctionAdvisor(branch_cuts, f(x), plot="2D"); how do I enforce discontinuous lines be presented with option discont=true?

To save space, I've decided to show problems found so far in Maple 2025 in one worksheet.

Hoping someone will figure the cause. The big problem is that these internal errors can not be cought using try/catch. Which means there is no user workaround. If they can be cought, then it is not a big problem.

Some from odetest, some from int and some from simplify and some from symgen.

Below is worksheet showing output in Maple 2024.2. It shows NO internal error is generated in any one. Either a result is returned, or it timedout as expected.

This shows all the above cases are regressions in Maple 2025.

This looks like regression in dsolve.

In Maple 2024.2, dsolve solves this with no problem and very quickly. 

In Maple 2025 it just hangs.

Any one could find why this is the case? infolevel does not show why. Below is Maple 2024.2 worksheet and Maple 2025 worksheet.  This is Maple 2024.2 NO HANG

This is Maple 2025. HANGed. Had to terminate it after 15 minutes. It seems to hang on resolving initial conditions.

Given a graph G and a vertex u of G, the problem of determining whether there exists a cycle of length k starting at u is a common one in graph theory.

Mathematica provides a function Findcycle for this task, though I am not sure which algorithm it employs—perhaps depth-first search (DFS)? Maple, on the other hand, does not appear to have a corresponding built-in function.

Hi, why does Maple always automatically distribute coefficients in expressions? For example, if I enter 2*(a + b + c), the result is always 2*a + 2*b + 2*c. Is there a way to keep it as 2*(a + b + c) instead?

Hello everyone,

How I get a plot for this function ? What means numeric values ? 

Thanks !

Warning, unable to evaluate the function to numeric values in the region; see the plotting command's help page to ensure the calling sequence is correct

I am just wondering why something that has been bothering me since Maple V up to including Maple 2024 has never been resolved properly.

Why is it so difficult for maple to solve a dead obvious and simple expression e.g.

sqrt(cos(gamma)^(5/3)/sin(2*gamma)^(5/3));

You can use algsubs to tell maple to use an elementary identity to substitute the double angle away, but even then it refuses to simplify the remaining fraction which is elementary at most.

So, when will e.g. this simple multiple generational issue be addressed  so maple can do the obvious simplifications.

There are much more severe examples concerning trigonometric functions under square roots, which was left out in this case to show just one issue.
