A lot of my life is at the moment spent using solve to solve systems of equations, and then trying to weed through the solutions maple gives to find the ones I am interested in. Specifically i'd like to have a program that can weed through the solutions and eliminate those that include equalities of the  form p[i]=-p[j] or p[i]=0  where i and j are integers (or equalities of that form with the letter q replacing p). Specifically i don't want to exclude equalities of the form p[i]=-p[j]*something+something else-another thing.... as they can be useful (or equalities of that form with the letter q replacing p).

Here is a (simple) example of the kind of equations I am likely to be solving and their output from solve:
A := solve([p[1]*p[2]*p[3] = q[1]*q[2]*q[3], p[1]+p[3] = q[1]+q[3], p[2]^2+p[3]^2 = q[2]^2+q[3]^2])

I have some code which gets rid of solutions where one variable is set to 0 

with(ArrayTools);
GetRidOfDumbSolutions := proc (sols)
local Nsols, Npars, GoodSol, GoodSols, GoodSolsCounter, i, j;
Nsols := numelems(sols); Npars := numelems(sols[1]);
GoodSols := []; GoodSolsCounter := 0;
for i to Nsols do
GoodSol := 1;
for j to Npars do
if IsZero(rhs(sols[i, j]))
then GoodSol := 0
end if
end do;
if GoodSol = 1 then
GoodSols := Concatenate(1, GoodSols, sols[i])
end if
end do;
GoodSols
end proc

but i can't see how (in maple) to detect an expression of the form p[i]=-p[j] especiall if that is being written in 2-d math. (i don't quite understand the different maths environments or how to convert from one to another or to string)

 



thanks. I played around, and had problems implementing your ideas for one of the systems I'm interested in.I don't see a difference between this and what you had advised me on, but it gets an error.

any idea why?
or how to fix it?

thing1 := diff(B[1](t), t) = piecewise(t <= 500, 0.3e-2-(63/10000)*B[1](t)-(3/500)*B[2](t), -(3/10000)*B[1](t)):
thing2 := diff(B[1](t), t) = piecewise(t <= 500, 0.1e-1-(1/50)*B[1](t)-(13/625)*B[2](t), -(1/1250)*B[2](t)):
sol := dsolve({thing1, thing2, B[1](0) = 0, B[2](0) = 0}, {B[1](t), B[2](t)}, numeric, output = listprocedure); plots:-odeplot(sol, [B[1](t), B[2](t)], t = 450 .. 550);

Error, (in dsolve/numeric/DAE/explicit) unable to obtain the standard form of the DAE system due to the presence of leading dependent variables/derivatives in the piecewise: piecewise(t <= 500, 1/100-(1/50)*B[1](t)-(13/625)*B[2](t), -(1/1250)*B[2](t))-piecewise(t <= 500, 3/1000-(63/10000)*B[1](t)-(3/500)*B[2](t), -(3/10000)*B[1](t))
Error, (in plots/odeplot) curve is not fully specified in terms of the ODE solution, found additional unknowns {B[1](t), B[2](t)}


I am interested in dynamic systems that changes system equations at a given point in time. So i often want to plot graphs that shows what would happen in the first 500 seconds, then using the point reached after 500 seconds as the starting point show what happens over the next 500 seconds.

For example my equations might innitially

diff(x,t)=x+p*y

diff(y,t)=x/y

and then after 500 seconds switch to 

diff(x,t)=x-p*y

diff(y,t)=x/y

simply estimating where the system is and feeding that into the other equation isn't an option because these equations have lots of parameters which p is representing in the above, and generally i want too use these graphs to illustrate the behaveious of the systems with the given parameters.

So far i use display and DEplot to make these grpahs.

Non dimensionalisation is a vary common task, and I was suprised that I couldn't find a maple tool to automate it . Has anyone developed their own package for it?

I want to automatically do it to the system equations for some Dynamical systems to make some of the other processing I do with them easier.

I was hoping to start with somehting in the form of 

Diff(x[1],t)=f[1](p[1]....p[n],x[1]...x[m])

...

Diff(x[m],t)=f[m](p[1]....p[n],x[1]...x[m])

where each f[i] is some kind of quotient of multivariate polynomials in the variables and parameters:
and end up with something like

Diff(y[1],s)=f[1](q[1]....q[p],y[1]...y[m])

...

Diff(y[m],s)=f[m](q[1]....q[p],y[1]...y[m])

where p<n

I am able to get unlimeted numbers of equations describing my system. These equations are generally relate quotients of multivariate polynomials. Each additional equation I get is generally less than twice the length of the last, and it is not always the case that an equation is independant of the previous equations. Although I can get unlimited numbers of equations describing the system, it is not overdetermined.

I am interested in solving these equations for their variables. There are about 30 cases I am working on, the smallest number of evariables is six, the largest would be twenty.

I want to be able to solve these equations in the minimal time possible. But I don't understand the function solve well enough to do so.

How do I choose the equations to minimise the time taken for the command solve to proccess them?
How does the command solve work?

particularly:

  1. if I process the command solve([Eq1,Eq2,Eq3...Eqn],variables) would the command solve([Eq[1],Eq[2],Eq[3]...Eq[n],Eq[n+1]],variables) take longer if Eq[n+1] is not indipendant of the previous equations? 
  2. Is there a way of checking whether Eq[n+1] is independant of the previous vequations, fast enough for it to be useful to check the equations before they are processed?
  3. Does the ordering of the equations affect the speed of solve?
  4. Is there a way of pre processing the equations before they are put into solve that will save it time? (for example factorising them, simplifying them etc...)
