Improving Your Research and
Development Workflow with
Mathematica
Mathematica provides a complete workflow for modeling, analysis, development, and
deployment, letting you concentrate on your work instead of your software.
Incorporating the latest numerical and symbolic algorithms, Mathematica gives high-
accuracy and high-reliability results for datasets of almost unlimited size, includes import
and export functions for hundreds of data formats, and produces professional quality
visualizations. This information kit includes case studies, interactive Demonstrations, and
more ways for you to explore whatMathematica can do for you.

Case Studies
Innovators in a variety of fields find Mathematica indispensable for research and development. Here,
two engineers discuss how the software helped them create new products.
A Measure of Success: Designing Hearing Aid Parts with Mathematica
"What Mathematica allowed me to do was focus on each individual part of the problem, and then I
throw it all to Mathematica and let it solve everything as a big system for me."
When his team struggled with a measurement standard in its design, Daniel Warren turned toMathematica and found an instant solution.
Mathematica is an essential part of Warren's position as director of research for Knowles Electronics,
one of the only companies in the world that designs microphones and speakers for hearing aids. Warren
uses Mathematica to develop and test the new technologies that keep the company's products at the
industry's forefront.

Geared for Success: Optimizing Face Gear Surfaces in Mathematica
"You can do a lot within Mathematica optimizing the surface before you ever get to the relatively
expensive part of doing product design."
In Steve Bush's role developing household consumer items at The Procter & Gamble Company, he's
involved in the physics behind products as well as their economic feasibility, and Mathematica gives him
the tools to evaluate both.
He first turned to Mathematica to solve complex equations for a customized gear application and was
immediately impressed by Mathematica's implementation and precision. Bush says, "Numerically, it's
powerful enough not only to create the geometry but also to show how the product is going to work in
real life where things are not necessarily perfect. Being able to turn math or theory into workingprototypes in such an efficient way is really worth a lot to us."

From the Wolfram Blog
These interesting posts from the Wolfram Blog show just a few of the ways Mathematica can be used
for modeling, computation, and other analyses.
Twisted Architecture
Chris Carlson, User Interface Group
I didnt set out to tie knots in Norman Fosters Hearst Tower or wrinkle his
Gherkin, but I got carried away. Its one of the occupational hazards of
working with Mathematica.
It started with an innocent experiment in lofting, a technique also known as
skinning that originated in boat-building. I wanted to explore some three-
dimensional forms, and a basic lofting function seemed like a quick ticket to
results. I dashed off the function Loft, which takes a stack of three-
dimensional contours and covers it with a skin of polygons.

The Incredible Convenience ofMathematica Image Processing
Theodore Gray, Cofounder and Director of User Interfaces
Mathematica 7 adds a suite of image processing functions
from trivial to highly sophisticated. To apply them to images,
you dont need to use any form of import command or file
name references. Just type the command you want to use,
then drag and drop the image from your desktop or browser
right into the input line.

Demonstrations
The Wolfram Demonstrations Project contains thousands of free interactive visualizations, from
educational introductions to professional tools. They give examples of the kinds of things you can do in
Mathematica.
Spring Mass Dampener (SMD) System with Proportional Derivative (PD) Controller
This Demonstration shows a spring mass dampener system (SMD) with a
proportional derivative (PD) controller in the time domain. The simulation
includes a general solution for a free system with initial conditions
(including under-, over-, and critically-damped conditions).
This Demonstration lets you change the initial conditions and the
parameters of the problem. You can experiment with the proportional and derivative controller gains tosee the results in real time. The motion can also be automated, to simulate the dynamics in real time,
using the trigger.

Mechanical Involute Gears
The parameters control the shapes of gears for a rack and gear mechanism.
Only some choices would allow the system to work without cogs getting
stuck.

Radial Engine
This Demonstration shows a working model of a 4-stroke radial engine.
Unlike a straight cylinder engine, the cylinders are connected to the
crankshaft using a single hub with a master-and-articulating rods assembly.
For smooth firing order, most 4-stroke radial engines have an odd number
of cylinders.
For more information about this Demonstration, please visit
http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/RadialEngine
Steady-State Temperature Profile of Two-Layer Pipe
This Demonstration shows the steady-state temperature profile of a two-
layer pipe with constant interior and exterior surface temperatures.
You can vary the radii of the two material layers, their respective
conductivities, and the two surface temperatures. You can see the
resulting temperature profile as a function of pipe radius, with a slope
discontinuity at the interface of the two materials. By minimizing the
conductivity of one of the materials, an insulating layer can be simulated.
