hiya, I tried to use Groebner Basis to solve a set of polynomials. In the process of trying out these two polynomials, polys = {(Cp^2*(w^2 - w2^2)^2 + 2*Cl*Cp*(w^2 - w2^2)* (w^2 - w2^2 - Cp*w*w2^2*(Xl + Xp)) + Cl^2*(w2^4 + w^4*(1 + Cp^2*Rl^2*w2^2) - 2*Cp*w^3*w2^2*(Xl + Xp) + 2*Cp*w*w2^4*(Xl + Xp) + w^2*w2^2*(-2 + Cp^2*w2^2*Xl^2 + 2*Cp^2*w2^2*Xl*Xp + Cp^2*w2^2*Xp^2)))*Rtotb- (Cl^2*Rl*(-w^2 + w2^2 + Cp*w*w2^2*Xp)^2), Rtota * (Rl^2+(Xl+Xp)^2)-Rl*Xp^2} GroebnerBasis[{polys}, {Cl,Cs,Rl,Xl,Xs}] where the rest of the symbols are parameters. (n.b. Cl,Cs,Rl,Xl,Xs are the only variables) I got as many as 10 solutions!!! I suspect that the algorithm treats other symbols as variables too. That is why I got so many solutions. In addition, when i extended these polynomials to 6 or 7 different polynomials with the same sort of degree, it crashed the system!(out of memory) 1) Is there a way that I can tell the algorithm which symbols are parameters? 2) I tried using GroebnerBasis[{polys},{variables},{variables to be eliminated}] but I got different solutions. Any significant about this? I am not sure if this can help to solve the problem? Thanks Col
