Hi All,
I am doing a calculation involving eigenvalues and eigenvectors for
structural mechanics. I encountered with difficulties in numerical
calculation which is very sensitive to precisions of numerical numbers.
I used "SetPrecision[inputdata,100] for my input data. But after I got
eigenvalues and eigenvectors, these numbers are "MachinePrecision". I
tried to change the precision in "Eigenvalues", but there are no options
for that. How can I set the precision for the whole notebook?
