solve((-v^3 * cos(x) * sin(x)^2 / sqrt(v^2 * cos(x)^2 + 2*a*h) - v^2 * sin(x)^2 + v * cos(x) * sqrt(v^2 * cos(x)^2 + 2 * a * h) + v^2 * cos(x)^2) / a

Solving Equations

What method is used to solve equation in Axiom?

axiom
solve(sin(x)=4/5,x)
LatexWiki Image(1)
Type: List Equation Expression Integer
axiom
solve([a=4,sin(x)=a/5],[a,x])
LatexWiki Image(2)
Type: List List Equation Expression Integer

In the following, a workaround is necessary because of bug #128:

axiom
)set output algebra on
axiom
)set output tex off
solve([V_q*U_q+V_l*U_l+V_d*U_d+V_a*U_a=U_ma , _ V_q*rho_q+V_l*rho_l+ V_d*rho_d+V_a*rho_a=rho_ma,i _ V_q*t_q+V_l*t_l+V_d*t_d+V_a*t_a=t_ma, _ V_q+V_l+V_d+V_a=1], _ [V_q,V_l,V_d,V_a] )
There are no library operations named i Use HyperDoc Browse or issue )what op i to learn if there is any operation containing " i " in its name.
Cannot find a definition or applicable library operation named i with argument type(s) Variable Vq
Perhaps you should use "@" to indicate the required return type, or "$" to specify which version of the function you need.

axiom
solve(v^4+b*v^3+c*v^2+d=0,v)
LatexWiki Image(3)
Type: List Equation Fraction Polynomial Integer

This didn't work since solve returns solutions expressible as members of the ground field only. Above, the ground field of LatexWiki Image defaults to Fraction Polynomial Integer...

Thus, the proper call is

axiom
solve((v^4+b*v^3+c*v^2+d)::EXPR INT=0,v)
LatexWiki Image(4)
Type: List Equation Expression Integer

But really, you should use 'zerosOf':

axiom
zerosOf(v^4+b*v^3+c*v^2+d, v)
LatexWiki Image(5)
Type: List Expression Integer

In the following, we have to do three things:

  • convert the list of Fraction Polynomial Float to a list of Fraction Polynomial Integer, since solve can only handle the latter,
  • ask for an approximate solution and
  • set precision to a lower value then 68, since it would take too much time otherwise

Furthermore, it's %pi, not %PI. Finally, the underscore is the escape character (like \) and is also used as the the line continuation character when it occurs at the end of th line. So K_sc is equivalent to just Ksc, but K__sc is actually K_sc.

Here is one way to use macros and _ to define more complex names that print nicely in LaTeX? form:

axiom
K_sc  ==> K___{sc_}
Type: Void
axiom
mu_sc ==> _\mu___{sc_}
Type: Void

axiom
digits(7);
Type: PositiveInteger?
axiom
l:=  [0.01*(2.25-K_sc)*K_sc/(0.01*%pi*mu_sc*(mu_sc+3.0&
#42;K_sc)/                         _
      (4.0*mu_sc+3.0*K_sc)+2.25)+0.7*(37.0-K_sc)*(4.0*mu_sc
/3.0+K_sc)/                _
(4.0*mu_sc/3.0+37.0)+0.29*(2.25-K_sc)*(4.0*mu_sc/3.0+K_sc)/
_
      (4.0*mu_sc/3.0+2.25),
_
      -0.002*mu_sc*(2.0*(2.0*mu_sc/3.0+2.25)/
_
      (0.01*%pi*mu_sc*(mu_sc+3.0*K_sc)/
_
      (4.0*mu_sc+3.0*K_sc)+2.25)+800.0*mu_sc/
_
      (%pi*(2.0*mu_sc*(mu_sc+3.0*K_sc)/
_
      (4.0*mu_sc+3.0*K_sc)+mu_sc))+1.0)+0.7*(44.0-mu_sc)*(mu

This doesn't work on mine michen:

axiom

But it should, observe this:

axiom

axiom

First two equationa do not depend on LatexWiki Image, the later two don't depend on LatexWiki Image.
