January 25, 2012 - PRESS RELEASE Maplesoft today announced a major adoption of its products by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). JPL is implementing Maple, MapleSim, and MapleNet in its various projects. Whether creating America's first satellite, Explorer 1, sending the first robotic craft to the moon, or exploring the edges of the solar system, JPL has been at the forefront of pushing the limits of exploration. January 4, 2012 - PRESS RELEASE Maplesoft announced the release of the latest version of its popular testing and assessment tools. Maple T.A.™ was first released as a pilot project in 2002. Ten years later, Maple T.A. and the Maple T.A. MAA Placement Test Suite continue the tradition of providing major advancements to help institutions offer high quality technical education to their students. November 1, 2011 - PRESS RELEASE Maple Player for iPad, now available, is an application for the iPad that lets users view and interact with documents created in desktop Maple. It provides an interactive interface where users can enter values, move sliders, and click buttons to perform calculations and visualize the results. The Maple Player is available for free from the App Store, and can be used by everyone. |

Mathematica 8 and Maple 15 IEEE Spectrum magazine, November 30, 2011 When speaking to the developers at Maple, I found them particularly proud of the program's new support for multicore processers, parallel programming for a cluster of local computers, and multithread computing, each of which can dramatically speed up large calculations. For example, they described problems involving sparse linear programming that were unfeasible in earlier versions but can be easily calculated in Maple 15....more
Real Numbers Design Engineering, November 9, 2011 In engineering research, detail is vital. Researchers must not only develop models quickly, but they also require in-depth analytical tools to help them understand on a fundamental level the intricacies of their models. Researchers at many academic institutions have adopted MapleSim, advanced physical modeling software from Maplesoft, as a key tool in their engineering research activities (see page 24 using link below)....more
Maplesoft: Play the Number Game on iPad Desktop Engineering, November 7, 2011 In his popular blog in Desktop Engineering, Kenneth Wong takes a deeper look at the Maple Player for iPad. He says the player lets you play equations and mathematical expressions as though they were real-time animations....more

Using MapleSim in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Models Provides Insights and Options Not Possible with Traditional Tools

February 6, 2012 Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) are an increasingly important tool in situations where it is dangerous or extremely difficult for humans to enter. In addition to military applications, UAVs are used in environmental surveys, agriculture, and disaster relief efforts, and are one of the most active areas of contemporary engineering research. In order to help researchers develop new algorithms for controlling UAVs under a variety of different conditions, Quanser Inc. developed the QBall-X4, a UAV experiment platform for research in UAV control and design.MapleSim™, Maplesoft’s modeling and simulation product, is a key tool for Quanser design engineers in developing the QBall....more |
