Hi to everyone here!!I have a worksheet for rail calculations and I am used collapsible areas to hide certain information on the printout, however when printed the collapsed areas still show. Is there anyway to get these areas to not print in MathCAD Express Prime 3.1? I have attached the sheet I am working with for any ones reference. Thank you in advance for your input.Sincerely,Justin Kordas
Hello every one>i need a graph like that using Mathcad, Can you help me please?
As a result of Valery's clock problem, I have unwittlingly found myself exploring elementary number theory. This has entailed a rewrite of several of my standard library functions to work more effectively with different bases. It has also meant modifying the behaviour of some of Mathcad's built-in numeric functions, such as Mod, Round, Trunc, Ceil and Floor, to handle complex numbers.Currently, Mathcad (not sure about Prime) allows one to enter numbers in decimal (default), binary, octal and hexadecimal, and to display them in this format through the Format Results dialog. This is a bit of a pain if one is working in mixed bases (which is usually the case) and it would be a lot easier if one could simply enter the (arbitrary) base as part of the number entry or display. One possibility is to write pseudo-unit functions, as in the example below:However, an alternative, and one that is in keeping with the majority of texts that I've looked at, is to put the base (
Several classes of problem (eg, context-free grammar interpreters) are easily thought about and implemented by mutually recursive function calls,For example, one of the Rosetta Code programming challenges is to implement the Hofstadter Female and Male Sequences (http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Mutual_recursion#PureBasic). As far as I'm aware, this isn't possible in Mathcad, but appears to be in a whole host of other languages including Matlab and Mathematica (two of Mathcad's major competitors). As the ultimate humilation, I wrote my first program in LibreOffice Basic to show that even a word processor can do mutual recursion whereas a mathematical application can't. Indeed, it seems as if even a pocket calculator can do it (see Ti-89 entry in the Rosetta listing).StuartRosetta Code Hofstadter Female and Male Sequence ChallengeTwo functions are said to be mutually recursive if the first calls the second, and in turn the second calls the first.Write two mutually recu
Hello,I have a done calculation in mathcad to check my design for safety.Now, i want those inputs used for calculation in mathcad to become parameters in creo. These parameters i want to use in notebook which will drive my assembly.Also , if i change my design in mathcad, corresponding change should occur in notebook parameter and so in assembly.If direct link is not possible, excel as a link will also do.thank you for you time.
The requirement of a hand held graphing calculator for AP tests in physics, chemistry and mathematics is prolonging the transition to Mathcad. AP Calculus AB Calculator Policy MOOCs are having enough of a problem deciding whether MATLAB, R, Python or Excel is the proper replacement for the hand-held graphing calculator. Mathcad is recommended by only a few MOOCs. This is a marketing problem PTC should address. I have been using Mathcad instead of the calculator included in the MOOC platform because of the superior way it handles units.I started out with a K&E slide rule, progressed to an HP RPN calculator, did everything possible with a graphing calculator, but now I'm using Mathcad.
Hi there. i am trying to graph a projectiles trajectori with air ressistance. I have been trying to program a while loop, which for a small increment in time will figure out the X and Y coordinates of the projectile. I think i have done that part correctly, but keep in mind i am a rookie in mathcad. My biggest problem is thus after the loop has come to an end, how do I store the data points and graph them?i have attached my mathcad document, any hints,points or solutions would be much appreciated.
Attached is a short worksheet created in both Mathcad 15 and Prime 3.1. The graph at the end of the worksheet works in 15 but not Prime 3.1. I've attempted to make them the same but there is an error in the 3.1 program. Might folks know what is the error in the Prime 3.1 program?
When you resolve a system with variables that have associated the units of measure and where the vector of the results contains different kind of units, you may have problem, not to resolve the problem, but into the view and extrapolation of the results.I have resolve this issue in this manner.Bye!

Hi,I am trying to export the data set, e.g. the numbers in a matrix, generated in MathCAD 3.0, to a simple text file. Can anyone tell me how this can be done? Many thanks,Anna
So, about a year ago my company allowed us to purchase Mathcad Prime and we converted all of our old Mathcad files over to that format. Also, of course, all of our new files were made with prime. Then, around 6 months ago, our company was bought out and now we only have Mathcad 15. Is there a way that I can convert those files back to xmcd so that I can work with them again?
Hi all,After getting the correct answer for the if statement part of my equation see post - Three if Statement Formula (I have altered this figure to exactly what I want now) I now thought it would be great if I could check multiple figures at one time using a matrix for my inputs. I've come across a stopping point straight away!! BoooooAgain I'm not so wise with Mathcad so I look to your guys opinion on this issue I have.Please find attached the formula I'm currently working on. (Mathcad 15 format)Best RegardsJonno
in response to A-ON advice, I have edited the worksheet. I would appreciate help from anyone.
I've attached an image of my work below. It seems like it should be very simple to have Mathcad evaluate the expressions highlighted in red so that the entire matrix is much simpler. But I've tried all the symbolic keywords and none of them seem to work. What am I missing?
Hi All,I'm a newbie with Mathcad and I'm self taught so I hope this is an easy on for you guys!!I'm trying to get my head round why this formula doesn't work so any help would be great.See the attached Mathcad 15 file.I'm using if statements to pick the correct answer but I can't get it to completely work. At one point I thought I had it but then when you test it there's always one way it fails. grrrrrrrrrrrBest RegardsJonno
Hi All,I'm strugling with the following problem:I'm calculating von Mises stresses where all the variables are known except TF and BM. These two parameters are defined only as the initial guess values. I'd like to find maximum value for TF and BM for which von Mises stress is equal to the allowable stress. Is this even possible to solve with given/find commands?I appreciate your help in this matter.
Has anyone had any experience with "Engineering Equation Solver"? =============I could use MATHCAD or MATLAB but I might as well use excel if I am going to use one of those. I have used EES for a couple of years now and the true power in it is being able to simultaneously solve systems of equations. For example, I could input 5 equations with 5 unknowns and it would solve for all 5 unknowns instantly without any manipulation to any of the equations. It could even simultaneously solve 100 equations with 100 unknowns!! I could pretty much input them as how they were written in a textbook or scientific paper without manipulation. If I was to do that in MATLAB, MATHCAD, or Excel, I would need to then waste a lot of time setting up a matrix to solve and you could imagine how time consuming that would be with 10+ equations/unknowns. EES is able to determine the variables that are unknown and its architecture automatically organizes the matrix and solves it. EES is also very powerful at combi

I want to change a variable name everywhere in one worksheet.For example, I want to change a variable name "TEST" to "TEST2".But, it is hundreds of times used in the worksheet and the manual editing seems impossible.Is there any way to do that automatically?
Hi everyone,I'm trying to copy/paste an Excel component from one worksheet to another (in order to avoid having to copy manually all data and properties). But sometimes I receive the following error message: " cannot be accessed. The file may be corrupted, located on a server that is not responding, or read-only. A funny fact is that I checked everything and none of these conditions do apply: the worksheet works perfectly fine, I'm not working on a server and the file is not read-only. Even stranger is that sometimes copy/paste works, and sometimes it doesn't, without changing anything.I tried to use the Windows Task Manager to end Mathcad and Excel processes but it's not effective at all. I'm usgin Mathcad 15 and Excel 2010. Does anyone know how to avoid this?Regards,Antoine
My company runs Windows 7 and I have trouble with connecting to an ODBC Access 2007+ database in the new Access format *.accdb. Has anyone else been experiencing the same problem. Mathcad will connect through the ODBC window, but when you pick the table in the database the connection seems to get stuck and will eventually time out and crash the Mathcad file. I also have a rather restrictive I.T. department, but I have been assured that I have full rights to the software on my machine. Any suggestions our possible solutions would be appreciated.ThanksDean Moore
Hello folks,I've got data here of a surface roughness measurement. I'm trying several smoothing functions in order to get the main features of the surface. medsmooth, ksmooth work, supsmooth however doesn't work. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?I'm running "real" mathcad; i.e. MC15 on a 64 byte, Win7 machine. A file with data is attached.Raiko
Can anyone help figure out the error in my work. I was trying to use solve block but seems not working out.
