Anyone have success pointing Mathcad to the Anacona3 installation directory? I have Anaconda Python. Root environment is v3.11, but I have a personal v3.8 environment. Both are supported by Mathcad Prime 11 for Advanced Controls. My installation for Anaconda 3 is at: C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3 Note: Anaconda doesn't like paths with spaces, so it installs in C:\ProgramData by default. This directory contains python.exe, python3.dll and python311.dll. I think this is the correct "Python installation folder" that I have set in Options. I pointed the Mathcad Options item for the Python path to this directory. Restarted Mathcad Prime 11. It still can't find Python in my Custom Control script editor. Hopefully, someone out there has gotten this to work and can shed some light.
Hi everyone,I wanted to share an issue I ran into while working on stress intensity factor () calculations in Mathcad, and see if anyone has advice on how to resolve it. When I calculated , Mathcad returned results with strange units: ΔK(a0) = 6.013×10^6 lb / (ft^0.5·s^2). That term in the denominator makes no sense — stress intensity factor units should be something like ksi√in (force / length^1.5), with no time dimensions.It seems that Mathcad is treating lb as pound-mass (lbm) instead of pound-force (lbf). Because of that, it introduces extra time units through when it tries to reconcile the dimensions. This appears to be why an is showing up in the denominator. Even after trying to redefine lb as lbf in my worksheet, Mathcad still seems to carry the time unit into the result. I can’t just delete the s^2 term — it keeps reappearing.Has anyone else run into this issue where Mathcad sneaks in an term when working with fracture mechanics equations? How do you properly set up your units
hello: I am relatively new to Mathcad and rusty on how matrices work within the program haha. I am trying to clamp a minimum value in a 5x1 vector in a spreadsheet i am generating for wind loads. I have a for loop that generates a 5x1 vector for one variable To which i use GCpnegzone4 5x1 to generate wind pressures in the following loop Which works... however i need to clamp the values to a minimum of -16psf per code. meaning it should look like this: the approach i have been using is taking the same for loop used for Pnegzone4 and adding a the min function in hopes that it will go by element and compare the min value and replace when necessary. However the code just reports the lowest value as show below: Any help on how it should look like would be appreciated! my file is attached Thank you in advance!
I am new to PTC but not new to FlexLM license servers. I have one server with 3 different apps with their own FlexLM. I have another server with just one application so wanted to install this new PTC license service on it. I was able to get it to install and the service to start but it will only activate one license at a time even though both services are started. Is it possible to run the PTC license service along side of another application? I found a KB that says yes, but does not explain how. The online instructions are not working as both are conflicting with one another.
Buen dia comunidad, tengo un problema del grafico de una seccion rectangular donde deseo graficar segun las coordenadas de un matris como se ve en el archivo adjunto, por favor si alguien me pueda oreintar. Version de Mathcad prime V.10.gracias...
Hi, I need help. I don't know why it can't find the variables.I have Mathcad 9.
I define a vector variable X (using a program block) in one part of the MathCad document.The variable is computed correctly and I can access any element Xi later on by the expression Xi :=However when I try to call Xi inside another program block further down, I get "This variable is undefined" error.Would appreciate any suggestions.
Trying to make a plot where the line type is just a dot for every point. This is useful for eye diagrams. The interface behavior is really strange...It won't let you select it. I'm using 10.0.1.0
Hello,In mathcad prime, is there a reason why prime ( using P9) keep losing some images that i pasted in a sheet and replaces some of the images with " Browse for Image?Thanks,Sam
Hi,Find V2 voltage.
I am trying to do geotechnical calculations that I hope to refine.I hope someone can help me with whether it is possible to set up calculations via an input table with different soil layers, which give different stresses, which are used for equilibrium calculations.The simple problem below is solved as a simple hand calculation, but quickly becomes complicated when there are more soil layers, and when the rotation point jumps from different layers. is it possible to do an input tabel with "i" layers and devide all into "n" layers either by index methode ord vector. And then do the rotation calucation by means off "sum" or intregrate with their respektive "hn" I hope anyone can help me in the right direaction, i am not an expext in advanced use off mathcad
Hi, Prime 10.0.0.0 problem, when using the odesolve, I can display the displacement vector, but I can't list the first and second derivatives, when using the prime operator. I can ask for discrete values, but the range variable, only works for the displacement term. I get a message stating that the "calculation is not converging to a solution", although I can plot it. Can anyone assist?,
I need to print and add to word these mathcad calcs with a bunch of warnings saying that the variable is undefined since these are all symbolic calculations:so i am not assigning a value to any of these variables at any point.surprisingly to me when I print, they all come like this: how can I get mathcad not to display these messages and highlights? edit: I went here, and tried selecting/unselecting everything and no luck:
I have a set of commands that sort through a text file to get values, make some of those values a number and then name those values. (See Attached). When I calculate the sheet, I can literally see Prime paint the values into my sheet. Is there a faster way?
Is it possible to read data from several tabs in Mathcad 15 from an excel file?
I'm bringing in a value from a text file. I'm pretty sure Prime wants to display the value in radians. But the value is really 84.11 degrees. How can I make Prime display this as 84.11 degrees?
I have accidently pushed something while save matchad and this header and footer appeared and I cannot seem to get rid of it
Why does this element by element assignment not work?
Hello, I am having difficulty applying the solution here: https://community.ptc.com/t5/Mathcad/Maximum-Value-from-Tables/td-p/999431 I have set-up a minimum example here with two arrays. When I try to get the maximum, an error is caused by the range variable i, "This value must be an integer". I am using PTC Prime 9. Appreciate your help!
Hello, I have a Prime 11 file that I'm using 4 iterations of the INCLUDE Statement to pull data from 4 prime sheets. The processing is very slow. I'm thinking about using instead four sets of READTEXT commands as I can probably pull the data I need from the 4 prime files into 4 large text files. Then read the text files back into the Prime sheet in question. Seems like there would be more time creating the text files with WRITETEXT commands for each sheet. But processing the 4 big text files into my sheet should be quicker. Anyone has experience with these two alternatives? I see a number of questions regarding the INCLUDE statement.
Hi, I'm using a range variable and multiple functions to plot the capacity and demand of a beam system to check for failure. This works well and as I intend. The problem arises when I want to find the specific utilization of the member along it's length. To do this, I wanted to create a vector containing the input lengths instead of a range variable, so that I can perform math on the functions and output a vector. This way I will have a vector of the members utilization along its length and won't have to manually check separate inputs. As shown in the image above, the vector "v" works as an input into function "V(v)" but not in the function "Va(v)". Is this because "Va(v)" is a piecewise function? Is there a way to evaluate this function using vectors? If there is a trick to getting vectors as inputs to functions, or simply a better way entirely to accomplish the task of creating a single vector with the utilizations as I de
Hi AllIn Mathcad 15.0 I could replace the "dot" symbol with the multiplication "x" symbol for multiplication. Is this possible with PTC Mathcad 11.0Please advise Mal
Hello can anyone help me with opening a .mcd file ? its very urgent and I dont have version 15. I have 11 prime for 30 days only.your help is much appreciated
After inserting a numeric value from another mathcad document and highlighting it with the cursor, the inserted number is highlighted with green brackets. What does this highlighting mean and what does this option allow you to do?
Hi everyone,A customer of mine recently encountered a question while using Mathcad Prime. They created a 2D plot using the Insert Chart function (as shown in the image below), but couldn't find a way to display the grid lines (both x and y) in the chart.I’m not very familiar with the plotting settings in Mathcad Prime, so I’d appreciate any help. Is there a setting or option to enable axis grid lines in a chart?Thanks in advance for your support!Best regards,Lan
