I see that Rouben found the same thing, while I was working on it and submitting.

Yet another (much slower) approach that works here is to change variables to make the inner integral range from a=1..infinity, and then do purely numeric integration. Mariusz's nice workaround also serves as another corroboration.

restart;
with(IntegrationTools):
H:=Int(exp(-a^2-b^2-c^2),
       [a=b^2/(4*c)..infinity, b=-infinity..infinity, c=0..infinity]):
T:=ExpandMultiple(H):
T1:=Change(op([1,1],T),a=s*(b^2/(4*c)),[s])
    assuming c>0, b::real:
new:=CollapseNested(Int(Int(T1,op([1,2],T)),op(2..,T))):
evalf(op(0,new)(op(new),epsilon=1e-5));
                          0.9786008269

@waseem The purpose of procedure H is to temporarily freeze the factors that are nontrivially polynomial in r, so that they don't get expanded.

A simpler procedure than I had above is just this:

H:=proc(ee)
  subsindets(ee,And(polynom(numeric,r),`+`),freeze);
end proc:

@gal Please upload a short Worksheet or Document that demonstrates the problem and attach it to a Reply/Comment.

You can use the green up-arrow in the Mapleprimes editor to upload an attachment.

@Ronan In the unix world it is an old convention to give subdirectories 3-letter names like bin, doc, lib, src, tmp, etc.

The name "src" stood for source.

But it's rather arbitrary.

My point was that perhaps it's not best to store your .mpl plaintext alongside any .mla archives, if only because it (slightly) confuses the special relationship the directory might have to libname and the .mla files. Not a huge deal.

@bliengme You don't need to figure out the scaling factor like 100 yourself, to convert between units of similar dimension (eg, length).

@brian bovril You can utilize UseUnit to specify more than one mixed dimension in the same session. So you can call it several times, to force kWh/day as well as USD/day.

restart;

expr := 4.9*Unit(kW)*3.5*Unit(h/day)*0.27265*Unit(USD/kWh);

4.6759475*Units:-Unit(kW)*Units:-Unit(h/d)*Units:-Unit(USD/kWh)

convert(expr, units, USD/d);

4.6759475*Units:-Unit(USD/d)

restart;

Units:-UseUnit(USD/d):

expr := 4.9*Unit(kW)*3.5*Unit(h/day)*0.27265*Unit(USD/kWh);

4.6759475*Units:-Unit(kW)*Units:-Unit(h/d)*Units:-Unit(USD/kWh)

combine(expr, units);

4.6759475*Units:-Unit(USD/d)

Could you please supply a simple (single, scalar) expression that illustrates your point?  Showing the expected result would also help.

(The above produces the same 2D Output in Maple 2018.0 I believe.)

@mmcdara 

As Carl noted in the Post, "Maple's dsolve(..., numeric) allows symbolic input parameters for IVPs but not BVPs." For BVPs, separate calls to dsolve are needed to handle separate sets of parameter values. That may still leave the possibility of using Grid on separate dsolve BVP calls, depending on the goal.

(Slightly related to your comments on using dsolve with parameters for efficiency, in case you're interested: an old post about making animations of IVP solutions.)

@mmcdara If you're interested in details: Statistics is going through ExprectedValue to Moment. In Maple 2017.3 this worked:

c := (exp(1.2*t) - exp(.9*t))/t/.3:
coeftayl(c, t=0, 1);
                     1.050000000

But in Maple 2018.0 that fails.

c := (exp(1.2*t) - exp(.9*t))/t/.3:
coeftayl(c, t=0, 1);
Error, (in coeftayl) the expression does not have a taylor expansion at t = 0

That comes from calling normal on the derivative, and then failing in taking the limit.

c := (exp(1.2*t) - exp(.9*t))/t/.3:
cd := diff(c, t):
limit(cd, t=0);
                   1.050000000

cdn := normal(cd):
limit(cdn, t=0);
                 Float(undefined)

The issue with coeftayl could be fixed. But Statistics might even avoid that altogether by recognizing the special case.

The following example works in Maple 2017.3 (and back at least as far as Maple 16.02), but generates this error starting with Maple 2018.0 .

with(Statistics):
Q:=RandomVariable(Uniform(0.9, 1.2)):
Mean(1/2*Q);
Error, (in Statistics:-Mean) the expression does not have a taylor expansion at t = 0

There are several easy workarounds.

I've submitted a bug report.

@David1 The Optimization package in Maple is primarily a collection of local optimizers.

There is no numeric global optimization program in the world that "guarantees" a global optimum for any general nonconvex problem. (edit: That is a general issue of mathematical computing, and is not Maple-specific.)

But if you want to do numeric global optimization of multivariate nonconvex problems in Maple then your best bet might be the 3rd party downloadable DirectSearch package (v.2).  If your Maple version is at least 2018 then you could install its package directly from within Maple (via the login to the Maplecloud).

@Kitonum The OP didn't both to give the URL. I added it.

@itsme I have no idea what the Standard GUI is doing with interface options, other than what I can infer by experiment.
