Mathcad

The installer, links and title say Mathcad Prime, but the "about" page says Mathcad Express, both version 3.1.I read that if you buy Mathcad Prime you can also use Mathcad 15. Does this apply to the version bundled with Creo Parametric 3? I'm guessing not.Cheers

Although the subject of the file is not in accordance with electrical engineering, I prefer to publish this work of mine, realized in practice in my home and running correctly, in this "environment".Greetings to all

Hello. My problem is to create vector plot of EM field distribution in time. I would like to make animation that shows vector`s changes over time. I can`t do this because MathCad scales vector plot by itself and there is no option to turn off autoscaling. Can anyone help me deal with or have some idea?

I have tried plotting multiple 3D graphs, but keep getting the error: The function did not evaluate to a pure real valueDoes anybody have a prober fix to this?

Hi, everyone,Right now I just want to find the non-trivial solution to the last equation above,I can find that using the solve block, but since solve block cannot be used in programming,I am afraid I have to find another way to solve a Matrix function with non trivial solution.In Matlab, [eigenval, eigenvecs] = eig (K, M) would return to EV as eigenvecs, using the equation M*EV*lambda = K*EV, and it is easier for programming, say K & M varies.So is there a way to solve non-trivial solution to a Matrix Function other than the solve block in Mathcad?Thank you for your help!BestShawn

In the highlighted equation, I am attempting to define an expression with a single value.Is this possible or should I first solve for 'Kg' as all other variable are defined?Other tips on the best way to do this?TIA,Kevin

I want to approximate the experimental data by a curve as shown below on screenshot. I tried to use inverse probability density for the normal distribution, but without success. Are there any ideas in this regard (which equation can describe the data or maybe I need to create several sections/parts of the curve)?Initial data:The approximating curve must have the following form:Or this form:

HiGood day. Hope you are having a nice day.I am looking for if any of you have Mathcad Prime Template/sheet for solving a system of linear equation using Guass Elimination.My actual problem is when I use solve block, every time I open the mathcad sheet, it doesn't update automatically only inside the solve block. I need to update solve block using "=" sign to find solution, then it works.Hope to find a solutions.Thanks and have a great day.Jahangir Hossain

Hi, I have a problem with units in mathcad15. When i use function view multiplication as thin space for unit and then save and reopen that document unit back to the previous form.After save and reopen units are in previous forms.

  Hello, Everyone.Need help in a creating program function like as the above.   Thanks in advance for your time and help.       Regards.

The video here is not good (Dan! Why?) Download please the video and the Mathcad 15 sheet from attach!The video is here http://communities.ptc.com/videos/3543Message was edited by: Valery Ochkov

Mathcad Express is Mathcad Prime without some function.Intercept and slope functions are closed in Mathcad Express for example.But we can create its in Mathcad Prime and use in Mathcad Express - see the picture and attach.Can you create others closed function for Express?PS - last and rows function and a sum operator are open in Express? Check some body please!

Hi, everyone,So I have come to the eigenvalues of matrix D, and now I want to find the eigenvector corresponding to eigenvalue 176.718.Is there a way to find the it?Using the eigenvecs cannot produce the right answer,As seen in this figure, EV has four linear independent eigenvectors, and the last column is the right one. But I presume this is only a coincidence, as eigenvecs in this case used det(D-lambda*I)=0, to recalculate all new lambdas of the new defined D. Is there a function like [lambda, Eigenvector]= eig(K,M) in Matlab, that returns to the eigenvectors corresponding to each eigenvalues?Thank you for your timeBestShawn

does prime still support animation?@

As a source of initial data, I use Excel files. When trying to find the values in the table by using "hlookup" function is working for a file "Data 1" and does not work in the case of the data from the file "Data 2". Why?With "Data 1":With "Data 2":

I tried to find for whch OS's Mathcad is available at the moment but could not find the answer to this vital question. This's the reason I'm posting here now. I have at my disposal an Android tablet running 4.2.2 and also an old iBook G4 running OS X 10.5.8.Do I have an appropriate system for your software with these?Thanks for any information you might provide on this issue!Mensaje editado por: Bernabe Echevarria To correct a semantic error

Does anyone have experience with Mathcad 15 installed on a Cyntrix environment?I know it is officially not yet supported by PTC, but that doesn't mean perse that it would not work.

I am working on problems where all the angles are in degrees and the trigonometric functions should read them as such. It is a lot of work to make sure that all the angles are converted to radians before the algebraic expressions involving them are evaluated. Is there any way that a statement or preference can be added so that mathcad correctly evaluates the trigonometric functions with the arguments in degrees?

Hi guys, I'm having a bit of trouble with this solution. I'm trying to solve a problem where in essence I'm using the RK Equation of state to find two volumes, then using the Trapezoidal Rule to "integrate" without calling an integral function. I'll attach pictures and my current Mathcad file so you can follow along with my commentary.In the first picture I've defined the function using the Boolean operator to find by initial and final volumes. If you're using my .xmcd file be careful, I sometimes use "[" subscripts and sometimes I use p.1 instead -- click the definition to check.In the second picture I've defined the RK equation of state as an actual function of v and I have the trapezoidal rule as a comment. I'm showing that my h = final - initial, my interval is starting from v0 and going by my step size of h/2n to my final volume. I then evaluate the RK function at the initial volume, the final volume, and sum the evaluation of p over the interval v to get the 3 terms needed for tr

Greeting, everyoneWith the first approach, Mathcad cannot return to a solution. But the second one using Polyroots works. And when I check with the eigenvalues derived from above, the determinant is not equal to 0, why?Thank you for your time.BestShawn

Hi MathCAD Community,To start I will try and give some background to the problem:I have imported some data points that represent two edge curves of a surface in Creo. Using Matricies I can rotate these data points by a given angle made up of Yaw and Pitch. I then project these rotated data points to the zero plane using a projection Matrix. Next I fit a function through the two sets of transformed data and using integrals I calculate the area between these curves.Now that I have worked out how to do this by specifying the rotation angle I want to iterate through 180 degrees of rotation in Yaw and Pitch to find the orientation that provides the smallest area between the curves.My problem is when I go to find the potential intersection points of the two curves (for defining integral limits) I use a solve block, which cannot be implemented within a for loop for iterating through angles...If anyone could help me find a solution to this ASAP it would be greatly appreciated. I have attached

In MathCad 14 it was no problem using solve combined with Kirchoff laws on a circuit to figure out different current, but in MathCad Prime it doesn't work when i type the same things in solve block.What am I doing wrong? MathCad 14 on the left and Prime on the right

So I finally had to get a new PC and move to Windows 7.  So I lost my MathCad 11 installed on XP.  I popped in the disk and after installing I'm told that PTC was "nice" enough to not let you activate the old license anymore.  However, when I download the new Prime it doesn't recognize my old MathCad 11 files.  I never upgraded because it had all the functionality I needed, but now it seems my files might as well be written in Sanskrit.Is there any way to continue using these files?  Or am I stuck with now figuring out how to rewrite them in Excel? (because I'm not about to trust PTC to not do the same thing again in the future and leave me high and dry)
