Maple 12 introduces an extensive range of new tools built on Maple’s fundamental technology platform of smart documents, powerful mathematics, and seamless connectivity to the engineering design toolchain. Whether you need to do quick calculations, develop design sheets, or produce sophisticated high-fidelity simulation models, Maple 12 provides the necessary technology to reduce errors and dramatically increase your analytical productivity.

What’s New in Maple 12:

• A new Dynamic Systems package offers a large selection of analytic and graphing tools for linear time-variant systems, which are essential in control systems development.
• New interactive embedded components include dials, gauges and radio buttons.
• The Exploration Assistant lets you create interactive mini-applications to explore the parameters of expressions.
• New plot types include dual axis plots, polar axis plots, and specialized engineering plots.
• Improvements to solvers for ODEs, PDEs and DAEs continue to strengthen Maple’s world-leading position in numeric and symbolic differential equation solving.
• The Discrete Transforms collection has been expanded to include numerical wavelet transforms.
• CAD connectivity adds important analysis capabilities to CAD systems.
• MATLAB to Maple code translation allows you to leverage your existing work.

Maple Optimizes Controller Design to Guide the Motion of a Maglev Train
An Electromagnetic Suspension (EMS) Magnetically Levitated (Maglev) train uses the attractive forces of magnets, positioned below a ferrous metal guideway, to levitate a train and guide its motion.

Optimizing the Controller Design to Guide the Motion of a Maglev Train
Author: Maple  
Magnetically Levitated (Maglev) trains differ from conventional trains in that they are levitated, guided and propelled along a guideway by a changing magnetic field rather than by steam, diesel or electric engine. The absence of direct contact between the train and the rail allows the Maglev to reach record ground transportation speeds, which are on par to that of commercial airplanes.
