With over 270 new mathematical functions and over a thousand enhancements to existing algorithms, Maple 15 customers can solve more complex problems faster than ever before. It's second to none in terms of scalability and performance due to highly efficient fundamental operations, sophisticated algorithms for advanced operations, and numerous options to fully leverage the power of multi-core computers. It can also compute symbolic solutions to differential equations that no other system can handle, and now solves an unprecedented 97% of the benchmark standard for differential equations, putting it far ahead of the nearest competitor.
With Maple 15, users can work effectively with large datasets and create even more compelling interactive applications using the new data table. With the new variable manager, they can gain greater control over their Maple sessions, quickly assessing the state of their computations. Customers can also take advantage of the latest in interactive Clickable Math™ tools, including over 40 new mini-demonstrations for exploring and illustrating common mathematical concepts.
“Maple 15 is the most important Maple release in the last 5 years, and we are very excited to be able to share it with our customers,” says Laurent Bernardin, Executive Vice-President and Chief Scientist, Maplesoft. “We know they face challenging problems every day, from designing the Mars Exploration Rovers to teaching the fundamentals of calculus. We are proud that the improvements in Maple 15 will make an important contribution to their success.”
“Maple is a system that involves a lot of different pieces – the math, the programming tools, the point-and-click tools, the technical documentation features, the teaching resources, connectivity features, etc.,” says Dr. Harald Kammerer, a Maple user for 20 years and Head of R&D, GERB, Germany. “Maple 15 includes important enhancements in every single one of these areas. No matter what you are using Maple for, or how you are using it, you will find something here of value.”

Dr. Robert J. Lopez, Emeritus Professor of Mathematics at the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in Terre Haute, Indiana, USA, is an award winning educator in mathematics and is the author of several books, including Advanced Engineering Mathematics. For over two decades, Dr. Lopez has also been a visionary figure in the introduction of math technology into undergraduate education and has received numerous awards for outstanding scholarship and teaching.
Clickable Calculus, the idea of powerful mathematics delivered using very visual, interactive point-and-click methods, offers educators a new generation of teaching and learning techniques. Clickable Calculus introduces a better way of engaging students so that they fully understand the materials they are being taught. It responds to the most common complaint of faculty who integrate software into the classroom – time is spent teaching the tool, not the concepts.
In this webinar series, Dr. Lopez presents six webinars, covering fundamental branches of undergraduate mathematics, including Differential Calculus, Integral Calculus, Multivariate Calculus, Differential Equations, Linear Algebra, and Vector Calculus.

Driven by the needs of the consumer auto industry, “symbolic computation” based physical model development has broken through some key barriers in HIL testing. For example, full vehicle models for dynamics, multi-domain models of HEV powertrains, and detailed dynamic models of special subsystems, such as crane arms, are challenging the traditional engineering workflow. Featuring numerous case studies and technique demonstrations, this webcast will explore new modeling techniques to accelerate model development while increasing model fidelity and simulation performance. It will show how to achieve efficient high-fidelity system modeling for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and control applications whether you’re working on passenger cars or commercial vehicles. In addition, this webcast will provide you with practical knowledge on quickly improving or implementing model-based design (MBD) techniques. |

Classroom Tips and Techniques:
"Events" and the Numeric Solutions of ODEs
Author: Dr. Robert Lopez
Several examples of the use of "events" in solving differential equations numerically are given. The main example is the "skydiver" problem where free-fall changes to descent with an open parachute. |

Financial Modeling in Maple
Author: Maplesoft
The Finance package is new in Maple 15. It contains many tools for advanced financial modeling, as well as accessible tools for personal finance. |
 |
Color Quiz
Author: Maplesoft
This document reads and parses color data using the new HTTP package and uses the data to quiz you on your color knowledge. It uses the CIE94 color difference metric to choose pairs of colors which are closer and closer together to make the quiz more challenging as your get more answers correct. See if you can get more than 300 points! |
