Maple Why Does Maple Return Symbolic Answers When Integrating Functions?

AI Thread Summary
Maple is returning a symbolic answer when attempting to integrate the function j2out(x), which includes a constant c2 and the function vout(s). Despite using evalf, the output remains in symbolic form rather than providing a numerical result. The integration involves the expression (s - vout(s)) / (s * vout(s)), evaluated from 0.0015 to x. Substituting specific values for vout(s), c2, and x yields a numerical result after further evaluation. The issue may stem from Maple's handling of the symbolic integration process.

Hi every body

I am trying to intergrate the following function using Maple:

j2out(x):=c2*x*exp(int((s-vout(s))/s/vout(s),s=0.0015..x));

where vout(s)=0.07595560773650. C2 is constant

but when I do, it returns a symbolic answers i.e Maple just returns the original expression without doing any thing even if I try evalf.

Any suggestion out there?

c2*x*exp(int((s-vout(s))/s/vout(s),s=0.0015..x));

<br /> {\it c2}\,x{{\rm e}^{\int _{ 0.0015}^{x}\!{\frac {s-{\it vout} \left( <br /> s \right) }{s{\it vout} \left( s \right) }}{ds}}}<br />

subs({vout(s)=0.07595560773650, c2=2.3456, x=1.92},%);

<br /> 4.503552\,{{\rm e}^{\int _{ 0.0015}^{ 1.92}\! 13.16558487\,{\frac {s-<br /> 0.07595560773650}{s}}{ds}}}<br />

evalf(%);
