How can i avoid this error?

that happens 'cause I have 3 different solution for Vv:

> Vv3:=Re(solve(eq1,Vv)[3]);

 

The following program was created to determine a Hermite polynomial. Can anyone see where the error lies? Thanks!

 

restart; f:=x-> (x*(cos(x)))- ((x*x(sin(x/2))));
                 f := x -> x cos(x) - x x(sin(1/2 x))


                              fp := D(f)

 

I am trying to modify a solution to a non-homogeneous boundary value problem presented in Dr.

Hi everybody, one thing is not still clear to me about assume: for example  I have to find the solution of this simple equation:

e1 := q=ks*h^(5/3)*sqrt(If);

If i write solve(e1,h);   I get also all the complex solutions. I want just the real solution so i wrote:

assume(h::real);
solve(e1,h);

but I still have all the complex solutions. Why? I tried also  with assume(h::real,h>=0); but it's the same.

thanks

Yesterday I watched a demonstration of Maple being applied to the modeling and simulation of the internal deformations of human bones. The researcher was a mathematician working primarily in the biomedical modeling fields. The actual technique was to utilize the symbolic mathematical power of Maple to formulate the necessary equation pieces for a finite element model (FEM) of the internals of the bone. The equations are then fed into the legendary FEM solver ABAQUS.

Due to the notoriously non-linear qualities of human flesh and bone, traditional formulation methods developed for modeling beams and metals simply do not work. So as in the case of so many impressive engineering applications, the power of Maple is being deployed in the formulation or the pre-solution phase of modeling and in doing so, previously infeasible models now become feasible.

I need to input f(N,x)=summation{(-1)^(n+1)/n}sin(nx) N=1,3,5....infinity

Hello

i have a question regarding the Compiler:-Compile Command in Maple12
under linux i got this error message when trying to compile the example:
> y := proc( x :: float ) 2.3 * x end proc:
> cy := Compiler:-Compile( y):
Error, (in Compiler:-Compile) possible installation problem:
GNU C compiler (gcc) not found in your command search
path (PATH). You will need to restart Maple after ensuring that gcc
is installed and adjusting your PATH environment variable.
>
> cy( 1.1 );
cy(1.1)
but the compiler is installed in /usr/bin and maple knows the path:
> getenv(PATH);

That’s a mantra I need to have drummed into me, and perhaps tattooed on the inside of my car so I’m reminded every morning.  But I keep on making the same mistakes. 

 I seem to think that if I’ve “optimized” my portfolio with a few flashy calculations that I’ve done my due diligence, and the next stop is financial independence.  It’s the black box syndrome – trusting the output of a computer program without truly understanding the real issues.  Most portfolio analyses, for example, hinge on historical data, which of course doesn’t predict the sub-prime blow-up in the US or whether Brazilian coffee growers are on strike.  They’re all backward looking.

 However, in the absence of a neighbourhood scryer, historical analyses are a good indication of how to position a portfolio for the long term.

 Being a geek (however much I strenuously deny it), I tend leverage my tech skills wherever I can.  I wrote the attached worksheet to import stock quotes, including historical data, from Yahoo using the Sockets package.  Simply type in the appropriate NYSE stock tickers into the appropriate text boxes, check the quantities you want to download, and click the big gray button.

 All the stock quotes and historical data can be manipulated on the command-line and can be accessed via command-completion. 

 It then finds the best distribution of stocks in a portfolio by maximizing its Sharpe Ratio (through the Optimization package). 

The Sharpe ratio quantifies how effectively a portfolio of risky assets utilises risk to maximise return.  It’s defined as follows.

 

 

It essentially measures how effectively a portfolio uses risk to maximize return – the higher the ratio the better.  The expected portfolio return is predicted from historic data, the portfolio standard deviation is traditionally used as a proxy for risk, and the risk free return is the return that can be expected from a zero-risk investment (i.e. the interest on US Treasury Bills or the redemption yield on UK gilts).

What I find particularly fascinating is how Maple is now the centre of my technical desktop.  Through the combination of the interface and its math tools, I now use it for everything from the simplest calculations through to making wild guesses about my financial future.  If any of the developers are reading this, I want you to know there’s a lot riding on you...

Problem: Find the value of k (k>1) such that the region enclosed by y=2lnx, y=0, and x=k has an area of 5 square units.

I'm figuring it should start out like this:

f:=->x2lnx;

then im figuring to plot it so i can get a look at the graph so i can guestimate what value for k would be 5 square units.

but what commands can i use to solve it exactly?

I cant remember how to find the intersection of two functions.

I know to first enter in the two functions (f(x) and g(x)).

Then I need to plot them...

But whats the command to find the point of intersection?

Hello Guys, I have this homework assignment which requires me to use Maple. Unfortunately, I'm new to this program, and frankly, have no clue how to use it. So I've been following this worksheet step-by-step and now it's telling me to plot inequalities using the plot assistant. May anyone please help me? It will be very much appreciated. Sample equation to graph: y>2 Thank you very much!

Hi to everybody. I have to derive in "x" a few times an expression that contains the term signum(Q), where Q =Q(x). The problem is that maple derive also signum and gives as results signum(1,Q) so in my long expression there are a lot of signum(1,Q) . The problem is that when I create a fortran subroutine that compute this expression i get the warning

"the function "signum"  is not recognized in the target language".

So the problem is duplex:

Hello,

The following two equations are given:

x^2 + y^2 = z

1/2 ( x + y ) + 5 = z

I have tried to obtain the intersection curve of the two planes but I haven't succeeded. I'm wonderering if someone could provide some help on this problem.

Thanks,

I am having a difficult time understanding the solution that Maple 10 returns for the DE that I am telling it to solve.

 Could you explain this solution and help me to know what to do with it.
