I am currently running the trial version of Mathcad Prime 11.0.1.0 (I think only a few days left) to evaluate its capabilities for solving multiple equations with multiple unknowns. I want to verify that it will produce the results that I need before purchasing the software.  I have run into a problem getting Mathcad to solve the system equations symbolically. I have looked around the internet for community information on this aspect of Mathcad but have not found anything that addresses my specific topic. The problem to which is seek a solution arises when modeling the impact between two bodies. Using the impulse-momentum formulation of Newton's 2nd law gives me 6 equations and six unknowns with a point mass (no rotational inertia) impacting a point mass. I put this system into Mathcad and used the solve feature and it produced the desired result. My file is attached. You will see that I took the solution equations Mathcad produced and ported them over to calculate the numeri

Hello, I want to perform a forced conversion of Assembly to WAssembly in the asynchronous invocation mode. Currently, I am relying on the pfcasync.jar. I noticed that there is no WAssembly in it. What should I do?java.lang.ClassCastException: class com.ptc.pfc.Implementation.pfcAssembly$Assembly cannot be cast to class com.ptc.wfc.wfcAssembly.WAssembly (com.ptc.pfc.Implementation.pfcAssembly$Assembly and com.ptc.wfc.wfcAssembly.WAssembly are in unnamed module of loader 'app') at com.po.creo.service.impl.ConstraintServiceImpl.getModelData(ConstraintServiceImpl.java:77) ~[classes/:na] at com.po.creo.controller.ConstraintController.getModelData(ConstraintController.java:22) ~[classes/:na] at java.base/jdk.internal.reflect.DirectMethodHandleAccessor.invoke(DirectMethodHandleAccessor.java:103) ~[na:na] at java.base/java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:580) ~[na:na] at org.springframework.web.method.support.InvocableHandlerMethod.doInvoke(InvocableHandlerMethod.java:258) ~[spring

Mathcad Prime 10 A few years ago, I found this great Mathcad wrapper (GitHub - usnistgov/REFPROP-wrappers: Wrappers around NIST REFPROP for languages such as Python, MATLAB, etc.) for NIST REFPROP 10 where I can call properties using a script.  This has been a game changer for me.  The issue is that not all fluids that I need are available to me, (DMAc or MMA for example) in REFPROP.Does anyone know of a DIPPR/Diadem Mathcad wrapper out there that works well? Thanks

Hi, I have been trying to get this non-linear gear dynamics system of ODE's to solve but for the life of me cannot seem to correct the errors.The attached sheet has several attempts at the end to write the equations and initial conditions in different formats but all give "too few initial conditions" or a"floating point error". Like most programming errors its probably glaringly simple!Any assistance would be appreciated.Regards,Ross 

New to PTC community but long time user of mathcad. I need to get the Roarks formula's for stress and strain ebook but as best I can tell from the forums it is no longer provided with mathcad AND it's not available on the forums for download (or on the web as best I can tell).  Is this correct? TIA

 I want an algorithm that generates the function [a,b,c}=unique(Y) although there are forums what I need is for it to be only with structural control sequences if else for while etc but not advanced functions of either Matlab or from mathcad since when you want to replicate the function elsewhere it is complicated, it would be appreciated if you have a way to do it  What would the mathcad programming of this algorithm be like as it is in the image so it is easier to carry out the function? 

Hi there!I 'm trying to master the slider advanced control option to see how my goal function will be changed. On the PTC  support page, I have found only the 2-axis plot sample:https://support.ptc.com/help/mathcad/r10.0/en/index.html#page/PTC_Mathcad_Help/example_slider.html#wwID0EIKIPB  It looks like the upgraded version of Prime 10.0.0 probably has some bugs, or it is impossible to obtain such an option.I've attached the function sample  (Prime 10.0.0), which I'd like to observe using the advanced control button (slider).Any advice or assistance will be appreciated. 

I've created a J-Link application, which has a swing GUI. On click of a UI command button, I'm creating a part files (simulating File--> New Part). The same thing when wanted to simulate through a swing GUI in synchronous mode, the GUI gets created, but when I push the button in the GUI, the GUI hangs. Can any one help me in making the swing GUI work with PROE?class MenuButtonListener extends DefaultUICommandActionListener { public void OnCommand() { try { //This works Session curSession = pfcGlobal.GetProESession(); Model tryModel = curSession.CreatePart("Testing"); tryModel.Display(); //This doesn't work //How to make it work csProe.StepToProeGui.createAndShowGUI(); } catch (Exception x) { STEP_TO_PROE.printMsg("something wrong: " + x); x.printStackTrace(); System.out.println("------------------------------------"); } }}

We have a large number of installed users that use Mathcad 15 on a regular basis.  Just recently, a few have been noticing that selecting File|Save from the main menu is NOT saving the updates to their files.  You can imagine our concern.  It's intermittent and I cannot reproduce it myself on my desktop, but I'm hearing it from enough of our users that I think it's real.  It could very well be something to do with our environment and not be a Mathcad issue at all, but it is concerning.  We're running Mathcad 15 M045 and one of the keys is that the attempted save it to a network drive, not a physical drive on the desktop machine. Has anyone by any chance run across anything similar?Thanks!

I'm wondering if anyone else is having this problem.  Just noticed that Mathcad 15.0 M050, released specifically for Windows 10, has an odd printing issue.  To PCL printers and PDF files, it appears that the font characters are all using a negative fixed character spacing on the order of -0.01 to -0.06.  This "bunches" up the characters and pushes them all toward the left.  I thought my eyes were going buggy because it is subtle, but when I print and examine a PDF, this negative character spacing is easy to analyze.  Negative kerning is used for type-setting, but not uniformly on every character.  It doesn't seem to matter which printer or which font or font size I use.  I do not see this behavior with M045 on Windows 7.  I don't know yet if it's a Mathcad issue or a Windows 10 issue (although all other apps print just fine).  .NET maybe?   I have a ticket open with PTC, but wondered if anyone else is seeing this, or has a clue as to wh

When you are trying to install Creo Elements/Direct Model Manager on a Server with multiple network interfaces, it is a more a gamble than a real specified process, whether the installation will succeed or not.Even when you have succeeded in installing Model Manager on a server with multiple network interfaces you may get wrong answers from the http://<server>:9898/ port, where IP-address is mentioned again.....In the past the typical server within a CAD installation had one network interface working (simply unhooking the cable) and everything goes fine.In the meantime you will encounter other configurations:1.) network interface to the management net2.) network interface to the production net (e.g. 1GBit)3.) network interface to the production net (e.g. 10GBit)4.) network interface via the USB connection to the KVM system used for dealing with problems standing directly in front of the rack.* When the algorithm within the product selects the wrong interface during the insta

Hi,I have a large assembly and would like to create a clear, step-by-step single animation. I am planning to use different simplified representations to generate clean exploded views for each stage of the animation.However, in the Animation window, I can only see options to control explode states, timing, and view orientation. I do not see any option to control or switch simplified representations.Could you please let me know if there is a way to operate or include simplified representations within the animation sequence?I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions. Kind Regards,Sunil Kotte

I've got an odd one and was wondering if anyone else has experienced this/has a solution? I have been using Creo 11 parametric with an educators licence. Yesterday I was creating a fairly basic drawing, upon saving the drawing it crashed on me (this isn't a regular occurrence). When attempting to re-open the drawing it 'loaded' but nothing was displayed, no template, model or annotations. I closed the program and tried to open different drawing, but this time only the template and annotations loaded in, no model visible. Loading parts and assemblies also became difficult, with components not rendering properly. Often models would load in only as wireframe even if a shaded option was selected, also on occasion large orange triangles will be displayed around the part?  After trying various options I uninstalled Creo 11 and re-installed with Creo 12. I am finding that the same issue is still occurring? The drawings sometimes load in partially/completely if I open the part f

I have a simple part (modeled by somebody else or imported).It has some phantom lines that I can't hide.In 3D model space, If I set to "wireframe, no hidden" there are still hidden lines that shine through.Same thing happens if I make a drawing from this part.It may be a configuration setting rather than part issue, since the lines do not show up on other people's machines. Creo 11.Any help will be appreciated. 

Version: Windchill 13.1 Use Case: I am experiencing an authentication priority issue after upgrading Windchill from 12.1.2.4 to 13.1.2.0, and I would appreciate advice from anyone who has faced and resolved a similar situation.Description: ■ Previous Environment (12.1.2.4)User information stored in WindchillDSPassword authentication performed via JNDI adapter, using Active Directory■ Current Environment (13.1.2.0)Replaced WindchillDS with OpenDJIntended configuration is the same as before:User information in OpenDJPassword authentication by Active Directory via JNDI adapter■ ProblemWith the same configuration applied in 13.1.2.0, OpenDJ is being used for authentication first, instead of Active Directory.However:The propertiesmapcredentials.admin.adapterswt.federation.org.directoryServicesare identical to the working configuration in 12.1.2.4.If I remove the OpenDJ-related settings from<HTTPServer>/conf/conf.d/30-app-Windchill-Auth.conf,Active Directory authentication works c

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.1 and Datecode with CPS 12.1.0.2We intend to extract all relevant information and generate a consolidated file that maps each manufacturer part to its corresponding impacted end part (Commercial Reference Part, i.e., WTPart). Our system currently contains approximately 100,000 manufacturer parts, and this activity will ensure complete traceability and alignment between manufacturer parts and associated WTParts.While the query performs correctly for individual parts, it does not scale effectively for large datasets.When executed for the complete dataset of approximately 45000 manufacturer parts, the query requires more than 12 hours and still does not complete the report generation. The performance degradation makes the current approach impractical for production use or recurring data extraction activities.

Hi, use creo 10 student since 2024.every year the license expires.i install new.this year i became a license file for creo 9.it works, but all my older files created with creo 10 are not able to open.same with the config files. i tried to get a license for creo 10 with the productcode, but error occured.how can i get the right license?or do i have to wait until the license expires next year? many thanks Michael

Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: I want to use the Suggested Value List constraint in PartsLink. From the title, I understand it as a list of values (LOV) that can also be filled with free text if needed—a suggested selection that users can refer to, but with the flexibility to enter their own values. My goal is to assign this to attributes to give users more freedom in some cases, while still providing guidance with a predefined list they can use as a reference.Description: Hello everyone,I have a question regarding Suggested Value Lists in the Parts Link module. When I add this constraint to an attribute, I would expect—based on the name—that I get a selection similar to a Legal Value List, but with the option for users to add new values themselves. That’s how I interpret “Suggested Value List,” but it doesn’t seem to work that way for me. When I set it up in the constraint, I provide a LOV, which I can select from, but I can’t add anything myself.Can anyone explain h
