[sympy] Can sympy solve this equation?

2016-02-22 Thread Carl Sandrock
I am attempting to work a problem from a textbook in sympy, but sympy fails to find a solution which appears valid. For interest, it is the design of a PID controller using direct synthesis with a second order plus dead time model. The whole problem can be reduced to finding K_C, tau_I and tau_

2016-02-22 Thread Nolan Dyck
Hi Everyone, I've been poking around in the sympy source, and I've noticed that the ` simplify` command does not deal with expressions like the following: >>> from sympy import * >>> from sympy.abc import x >>> simplify(abs(cosh(x))) Abs(cosh(x)) A simple glance at the graph of cosh(x) reveals t

Salil, if you are a student (you didn't make it clear if you are), I would recommend applying to GSoC as a student. Even if you aren't, as Ondrej said, we always welcome contributions. Aaron Meurer On Sun, Feb 21, 2016 at 11:55 AM, salil vishnu Kapur wrote: > Jason my username is Salil Vishnu K

There are different algorithms for different parts of SymPy. For instance, symbolic integration has its own large set of algorithms and literature on those algorithms (a subset of which are implemented in SymPy). Some parts of SymPy don't have set algorithms, but are based on some heuristics built

That is a good question. Usually you can find open access papers for named algorithms, try Google Scholar. Other implementations can be found in other open source packages, the best bet would be Sage because it *contains nearly all the other packages and is in Python as well. Regards, -- You rec
