Mathcad Programming

[Nhelzki]

Hello all!!! Can mathcad perform programming with flowcharts,subroutines primarily for solving matrices relating to analysis of structures using stiffness matrix method?Thanks all in advance for the info...

That depends on what you are trying to do. Mathcad comes with a selection of built-in functions and operators for solving differential equations and other things.

I think it'll probably do what you want, but to be honest if that is all you want there are better, faster and cheaper tools. I haven't tried to write any substantial programs in Mathcad, just loops two layers deep and a few if statements. Actually subroutines are out of my scope.

I've already performed matrix inversion in Mathcad to solve for the unknowns, and also transformation matrix...I'm planning to write a program to do this tasks in a programmed manner such using flowcharts..Actually,Just being curious on how pipe stress analysis software are being programmed..Thanks in advance for the inputs....Especially if there are pipe stressers reading this...
