Call Matlab Laplace Transform function from Mathcad

[jsuarez]

Hi, is it possible to call some built-in matlab functions (eg, Laplace and Invese laplace transform functions) to solve various systems of differential equations via Laplace within Mathcad? The equivalent functions in Mathcad are too complicated to solve differential equations. I am working on a long Pharmacokinetics project in Mathcad that requires solving differential equations via Laplace Transforms.

Any help is very much appreciated.

Which version of Mathcad are you using?

hi Richard, I am using Mathcad 15 & Mathcad Prime 3.1.

In Mathcad 15 go to "Insert", "Component", MATLAB". I think there may be problems with the more recent versions of Matlab though. You could also call call Matlab via it's automation interface using a scripted component if the built-in component does have problems. In Prime there is no way to do what you want.

Hi Richard, thank you so much!
