  • I run Maple11 on a Kubuntu Hardy Heron system that uses CUPS printing and printing generally works, even for Gnome apps.

    I Googled and found that others had the same problem with Maple11 and there was a reference to this:

    I followed the advice to make a /etc/cups/client.conf file and add the line ServerName=localhost to that file and to also export the environment variable

    Hello,

    I wonder if it is possible to add the capability of computing the Bivariate Meijer G

    function which is defined by means of a two-fold contour integral in the complex plane [1].

    This is a very interesting possibility, indeed, because, as it is well known, the integral of

    the product of three Meijer G functions  can be expressed in closed form by means of the bivariate

    Meijer G function. Many useful integrals can be computed in this way. For the time being, I am a

    While I see the marketing broschures I would appreciate infos on a more technical user level
    (and I am not so much interested in the Standard interface, I mean the application level).

    Is it possible to say more towards that (without looking through massive download videos)?

    Some links to illustrative worksheets?

    Always missed such for new releases ...

    We are pleased to announce that Maple 12 is now available.  It has some very cool new features - my personal favorites include the addition of polar plots, nifty new dials and gauges, a start-up code region, and the ability to use colour in table cells.  Check out our website to find out what’s new, to watch Maple 12 movies in the new , for full details on upgrade specials and more.

     

    Some time ago I was asked the question: do you know how to do a change of variables in a multi-dimensional definite integral?  I thought I knew, but I was wrong.  I only know how to do a change of variable in a multi-dimensional indefinite integral. 

    This question really intrigued me.  Of course, this is such an obvious question, I just started pulling out textbook after textbook off my bookshelf, expecting to find the answer...

    Maple includes a useful StringTools:-Entropy procedure which computes the Shannon Entropy, or Information Entropy of a string.  Wikipedia has a nice article describing the measure online at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shannon_entropy.  I wanted to compute this value over a Matrix so I wrote the following procedure.  Let me know if you have any comments or improvements on the implementation.

    Maple Help (9.5) lists 15 coordinate systems, but provides no information on any of them.  I am of course familiar with the Cartesian and polar systems, so no additional information is required.  But I would like definitions for the other 13, e.g.,  Cassinian.

    Because of John's answer to my last comment about a Maple wiki, I have searched first for antecedents in Maple Primes. From the many posts found in this search, I put together here what I consider the main points stated so far.

    We are pleased to announce that the winner of the monthly Maple Mentors Award for April is Axel Vogt. Axel will receive a prize of his choice to thank him for his involvement with the MaplePrimes community.

    Gratuliere!!

    View button in the user account (right next to the name) points to the same page where it is located. What is the purpose of it then?

    By the way, the user account page has quite a few errors in it. In IE7 it loads with a message "Done, but with errors on page" in the status bar, and Firefox outputs the following warnings and an error message in the error console:

    Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'display'.  Declaration dropped.

    Currently, we get 1 point for a forum post or a comment, 3 points for a blog entry, and 5 points for a book post. However, the actual value of a post varies significantly. It can be a question, or an answer that is not very helpful, or an answer with a workaround etc. Perhaps, that could be included in the point calculation. Something like the MSDN scheme:

    I am trying to solve a one-dimensional heat equation problem with a piecewise continuous input of temperatures.  Dr.

    The help page for  PDEtools,dsubs  says  "dsubs will substitute the left hand side of each substitution equation until this derivative is eliminated from the target"


    Trying a subs like u'=u into the expression u'' gives u -- as it should:

    PDEtools:-dsubs(diff(u(x),x) = u(x), diff(u(x),x,x));
                                        u(x)

     

    I would like to use Maple to provide an independent check on a finite element model solution (ANSYS) of a thermal transient analysis of a reinforced concrete shell.  The following information is known about the shell:

    The XMLTools package appears to use a DOM parser.  This requires that all of the XML data be loaded into memory and parsed before it can be used.  This is less efficient than a SAX or stream-based parser that operates on only parts of the XML tree at a time.  It would be a useful enhancment to include SAX based parsing in Maple.
