I was wondering if anyone has a suggestion for software that can be used to create good looking graphs for e.g Powerpoint presentations? | have access to a range of packages (Excel, Origin, Matlab) but none of them can create really "slick" locking graphs (but they are fine for figures in...

Hi, guys there is a quesetion: Could ANSYS software be used for simulate system temperature and flow fields when fluid phrase change, such as in steam generators.

Hello. I graduated 1.5 years ago with a major in Computer Engineering. I have been programming since I was a young child so it seemed very natural for me to go into software development. Throughout my undergrad I focused on the easiest path to me (computer science classes were a breeze) while...

Hi, I want a software that can generate aerodynamic coefficients (CD, CL, CY,Cl,Cm,Cn, etc) I am aware of some specialized software (e.g. AVL, open source from MIT, LinAir Pro, commercial, etc). But was wondering whether I can use 'common' software like AutoCAD Mechanical or Solidworks...

I would be most grateful for some tips of interactive software, which shows the hybridized atomic orbitals overlapping in the molecule (I don't mean resulting molecular orbitals but atomic orbitals of which overlapping forms MO). And does this works also in Mathematica?

Dear all, Are you familiar with the Elk-code software? It is a software about FLAPW (full potential linear augumented plane wave).Recently,I am reading the source code,but I meet many difficulties. For example,I've a question related to charge density.In the Elk source code, the charge...

Hi, So I'm studying Chemistry and biology and I'd like to hear your advice on notetaking. Perhaps some of you can help me find some good software for taking notes faster? First let me paint the picture for you: Whenever I learn a new subject such as electrochemistry or Entropy etc., I like...

I thought I'd just quickly tell you guys why I want to graph this equation before giving it you. We're studying conic sections at the moment, and I started wondering what would happen if I let the directrix be a parabola. I looked at the instance where the directrix is y=x^2. I let the focus...

Hello. I started studying DFT and using it for a bit of work I needed to do in College. I found it a bit interesting, because of the possibility of getting in touch with more "applied" science. However, after a time reading papers related to it I got a little disappointed. It seems to me that...

I love pen and paper but am terrible with computing. I have a copy of MatLab on my computer and aside from the operating system and Word that's about it. I need software that can run primality checks on 'small' gigantic primes of 10,000-20,000 digits in length. Where do I need to start?

Hi, I'm looking for a program that will take [1 + (1+p)]*p and return the unchanged polynomial. i.e. 2p + p^2 I know that MATLAB allows u to do polynomial convolution but for my purposes a program that returns the polynomial in the above format will be much much easier to work with...

I find it easier to compose derivations in offline latex software, which is TexMaker, and then post it to PF if I need to seek help or discuss something. This works well except for in-line TeX: TexMaker uses a 'commence inline TeX' code that is the same as the 'end inline TeX' code, which...

We currently are running PTC Creo 2.0 for our CAD software and are looking into bringing some basic FEA capabilities in house. Should we just bite the bullet and get Creo Simulate extension? Or so I bother to spend the time looking into other packages? I have used Algor in the past, but they...

This is somewhat of an extension of tosik's recent post. I work a bit with weak optical signals for PMTs and spectrometers and I am always trying to optimize the light collected by a system. Galilean collimators, grin lenses, Keplerian telescopes and other constructs are useful for capturing...

I have used GRTensorII and Cadabra for some time. And I think Cadabra have great potential for GR. But the current vision of Cadabra only deals with abstract tensor analysis, not with writing out of explicit components. So ,(eq :)when I try to check my final tensor expressions of solutions of...

After using Matlab here and there whilst I was at university, I thought that although it was very powerful, its use was extremely cumbersome and slowed down what should be fairly simple processes like making 3D plots and solving ODEs, PDEs etc. That got me wondering if there were any programs...
