Your calculation resulted in an array of arrays, that's what the square brackets around each element means.

That won't plot.

Attach your Prime worksheet, not just a picture.

I've got Express 4.0.  I was able to open your file, but I cannot program, so where you were programming values I had to pick just one (two pink highlighted expressions.

1) Your definition of function S.J uses sigma and sigma is not a single value but a vector of values. Thats the rerason S.J returns a nested  matrix which can't be plotted.

One way round is to define S.J as a function of two arguments omega and sigma

2) In your plot you added extra units rad/s for omega when calling S.J. This is wrong as omega already has the correct units. Furthermore the axis limits you had chosen are far too big

unless you want the plot be displayed in different units
