NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory adopts Maplesoft technology
Adept Scientific
Maple and Maplesim software
Maplesoft — whose product range is supplied and supported by Adept Scientific in the UK, Ireland, Scandinavia and the Nordic countries — supplied its Maple advance mathematical analysis software and Maplesim physical modelling and simulation platform to NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL).
JPL — whose current projects include spacecraft missions to the edge of the solar system and satellites to monitor the Earth’s land, oceans and atmosphere — will use the software to help save time and reduce costs, through the use of more efficient methods for mathematical analysis, modelling and simulation.
According to Adept Scientific, as Maplesoft software is built within a natively symbolic framework, it avoids sources of error and computational inefficiencies that are generated by traditional, numeric-based programs.
The client will use Maple for advanced mathematical analysis, and Maplesim as a major tool within its engineering workflow.
Additionally, Maplesim works together with Maple — accessing Maple’s symbolic computation technology in order to handle complex mathematics involved in the development of engineering models such as multi-domain systems, multi-body systems, plant modelling and control design.
