SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on programming the TI-89 Titanium calculator to solve for the three-dimensional principal stress, specifically using equation 3-15 from a mechanical design course. The user has attempted to create a program using the ProgramEditor but encounters issues when trying to input the equation in HOME, as it prompts for the variable sigma, which they are trying to calculate. Suggestions for resolving this programming challenge are sought from the community.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with TI-89 Titanium calculator functionalities
  • Understanding of mechanical stress equations, particularly principal stress
  • Basic programming skills in TI-BASIC using ProgramEditor

I've got a TI-89 Titanium

I've taking a class in Mechanical Design and my professor informs me that we need to be able to solve the equation (equation 3-15) shown in the attachment. I've been trying to find a way to program it into my calculator, but haven't had any real success.

The purpose of the program is to solve for sigma

I tried writing a program with ProgramEditor. I followed the outline given at:

https://epsstore.ti.com/OA_HTML/csksxvm.jsp?nSetId=91276

But when I attempt to use the equation in HOME it asks me for sigma, which is what I want to solve for.

Any suggestions on what I could do?

Help is always appreciated.

Thread 'Looking for a reliable inkjet All-In-One printer for photos and docs'

I am having a hell of a time finding a good all-in-one inkjet printer. I must have gone through 5 Canon, 2 HP, one Brother, one Epson and two 4 X 6 photo printers in the last 7 yrs. all have all sort of problems. I don't even know where to start anymore. my price range is $180-$400, not exactly the cheapest ones. Mainly it's for my wife which is not exactly good in tech. most of the problem is the printers kept changing the way it operate. Must be from auto update. I cannot turn off the...
