problem with integration

[Peter*]

Hi, I would like some advice on a problem I am having with integration using the Evaluate Symbolically command. When I apply this command to equation (9) in the attached file, I get the result of the first integral. However when I apply the command to that result I just get a repeat of the result; I don't get the result given in the article I got the equations from (see equation (10) in the attached file).

Thanks.

It can solve the indefinite integral, so you will have to substitute the limits yourself.

Since it can solve the indefinite integral I don't know why it can't solve the definite integral, but this is not the first time I have seen this problem.

Richard,

Thanks for your insight into this problem. How do I go about substituting the limits?

Thanks

Well, in Mathcad Prime 2.0 (in which a symbolic math is added), we obtain the same result as in the version of Mathcad 15 M010:
