Hello,

in this calculation, the result should be 't1' (as you can see easily):

Why doesn't Mathcad Prime 3.1 simplify this term correctly?

Many thanks for any answer.

Best regards, J. Dessecker

Hello,

this problems are very strange. Some of the failed simplifications works now, after i'd deleted some Images in the sheet. Other errors still occur.

I will ask the Support about this Problems.

UPDATE: all this problems which i have reported in the last days seems to result in a bug: i have disabled the Multithreading-Option and this solves the problems for now.

Kind regards, J. Dessecker

Not much help to you, but M15 simplifies the expression to t1.

Would it be possible for you to post your worksheet (or as much of it as necessary to replicate the problem) ... sometimes, it's a typographical problem that causes such problems (eg, Mathcad thinks one of the 'l's is something different to what you think it is), which you can check by noting the style of each argument. Or it may be something in the function hk1 itself.

Hi Stuart,

thx for your fast reaction.

I have renamed the variables l and b to ls and bs, but the result is same as before. Uploading the sheet is not an option for me, because it ist part of a job.

The Funktion hk1 is well defined, and as you have prooved with M15, the result is correct. Only it's representation isn't acceptable for me.

Seems, i have to do the hole Job again in M15...

Many thanks and best regards, J. Dessecker

PS: if someone see an answer, im still interested because thats my first Job i do with Prime 3.1

I'm confident that somebody will look before then, but if they don't I'll have a look tonight - I've got the Prime 3.1 trial installed on my personal laptop.

Herzliche Grüße,

Stuart

Oh. Just covering the bases, but have you tried copying out the expression longhand and simplifying it?
