[sympy] Re: formula guesser

2015-01-12 Thread Ralf Stephan
I'm thinking about implementing a formula guesser for C-finite integer sequences. There is now a working implementation at https://github.com/sympy/sympy/pull/8811 and I want to resolve here two questions posed by Sergey. Initially, I used the name guess to do 1. finding of linear

[sympy] KanesMethod with linear force-velocity relationship

2015-01-12 Thread Guillaume Gay
Hi, I'm trying to use sympy KanesMethod to model biological assemblies (i.e. the mitotic spindle). Molecular motors in biology follow linear force velocity relationships, such that F = F_max(1 -ld/V_max) where ld is the relative speed of the two points on which the force is applied

Re: [sympy] Are indirect imports problematic?

To me, the relevant concept seems to be software coupling, as railed against by structured programming gurus in the 1970s and 80s. Having imports which know exactly where a symbol is defined, increase the knowledge that one part of our code has of other parts. Coupling is often unavoidable,

Bastian, Maybe https://www.openhub.net/ has both projects. It has sympy and a bunch of stats. Feel free to improve the wiki page on the sympy repository as it will likely help others too. Jason moorepants.info +01 530-601-9791 On Mon, Jan 12, 2015 at 4:07 PM, Bastian Weber

The link that Jason sent provides data for b), c), d). Few more comments: a) I think that's comparable, if there is anything that Maxima can do and SymPy can't, please let us know. SymPy might have more features in specific areas. b, c) I think sympy has more developers and the community is more

Some notes: - Since you specified your kinematic relations as u = q', then you should set your velocities with u instead of q, for example: p1.set_vel(N, u1d * N. x) - I doubt that you need to specify any velocity constraints and thus you will not have any dependent speeds. You've defined ell as
