Hi dear Maple masters:

Excuse-me. I have a stupid question to ask: how to extract symbolic coefficient in maple? For example, I would like to get the coefficient before sin(Ωt) and cos(Ωt) in the following equation:

eq := (-Omega^2*a*A[2]-Omega^2*m*B[1]+Omega*A[1]*c[1]+B[1]*k[1])*cos(Omega*t)+(Omega^2*a*B[2]-Omega^2*m*A[1]-Omega*B[1]*c[1]+A[1]*k[1])*sin(Omega*t) = 0;

Thank you in adavance for taking a look, wish you a nice day!

Best regards,

Zihan

Hi dear friends. Recently, I am troubled by a question of how to draw an exictation-response diagram in Maplesoft.

I would like to draw an excitation-response diagram with following equation, Ω is greatrer or equal to 0:

(0.1299e-4*(17.1740*Omega^2-1.570200000*10^6))*Omega^2/(-196.1270800*Omega^4+3.954121290*10^7*Omega^2-1.877174100*10^12);

But, when I would like to use Bode diagram in Maple to draw it, it looks very differently.

Maybe I use a wrong function to draw it.

In the book, the diagram takes the form:

Thanks a lot for taking a look.

 I am haunted by an equation which I could simplify it with hand and it equals to −i (complexe number). But, I don't know how to use maplesoft to simplify it. The equation takes the form of:

-Omega*a*sqrt(2)*sqrt(-Omega^2*a^2-2*k*m+sqrt(Omega^2*a^2*(Omega^2*a^2+4*k*m)))/(-Omega^2*a^2+sqrt(Omega^2*a^2*(Omega^2*a^2+4*k*m)))



I could simplify this equation with hand calculation and it equals to -i (the complexe number). I'am sorry for not clarifying that the a, k, Ω and m are positive variables.

Thank you in advance for taking a look.
