I'm almost embarressed enough to not ask this. :) I assumed sorting the "Updated" column in the "My Channels" view would sort my channels based on when data was last written to (last updated to) the channel
However, I have channels that have received date in August and yet the date/time stamp in the Uodated column displays a June date and therefore they sort in the wrong order. Does "update" mean something other than a data update, such as a settings update? If so, if there a way to sort the channels by the more recent data update?
Hi everyone, I am from India ..Suggest some drone for deploying code from Matlab.
With a deployment of ThingSpeak on August 15th, 2024, we are using a new library for visualization of ThingSpeak channel charts. This should require no changes on your part. If you notice any discrepancies/differences in your channel visualization, please post a screenshot on this thread.
Hello :-) I am interested in reading the book "The finite element method for solid and structural mechanics" online with somebody who is also interested in studying the finite element method particularly its mathematical aspect. I enjoy discussing the book instead of reading it alone. Please if you were interested email me at: student.z.k@hotmail.com Thank you!
A library of runnable PDEs. See the equations! Modify the parameters! Visualize the resulting system in your browser! Convenient, fast, and instructive.
Due to API changes at X, formerly known as Twitter, the integration between ThingSpeak and X, specifically the ThingTweet functionality, was not operational for a number of months. As of August 1st, 2024, the ThingTweet functionality is being deprecated.
The alternative, which requires manual steps due to X requiring manual application for a developer account, is to use the TWITTER function from Datafeed toolbox in MATLAB code. You can then create a React that is associated with this MATLAB code to post to X.
Hi everyone,
I've recently joined a forest protection team in Greece, where we use drones for various tasks. This has sparked my interest in drone programming, and I'd like to learn more about it. Can anyone recommend any beginner-friendly courses or programs that teach drone programming?
I'm particularly interested in courses that focus on practical applications and might align with the work we do in forest protection. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
I use "x = ThingSpeak.writeFields(myChannelNumber1, myWriteAPIKey1);" in my code to update the ThingSpeak channel. 4 fields are associated with this channel. This statement is executed about once every 5 minutes.
Roughly 60% of the time, I got an error message "HTTP error code -301". The other 40% of time the channel update is successful. What does the "HTTP error code -301" mean? Any suggestion on how to improve the success rate of the channel update
I have picked the title but don't know which direction to take it. Looking for any and all inspiration. I took the project as it sounded interesting when reading into it, but I'm a satellite novice, and my degree is in electronics.

Gabriel's horn is a shape with the paradoxical property that it has infinite surface area, but a finite volume.
Gabriel’s horn is formed by taking the graph of 
with the domain 
and rotating it in three dimensions about the 
axis.
with the domain and rotating it in three dimensions about the axis.There is a standard formula for calculating the volume of this shape, for a general function 
.Wwe will just state that the volume of the 
solid between a and b is:
.Wwe will just state that the volume of the solid between a and b is:
The surface area of the solid is given by:
One other thing we need to consider is that we are trying to find the value of these integrals between 1 and ∞. An integral with a limit of infinity is called an improper integral and we can't evaluate it simply by plugging the value infinity into the normal equation for a definite integral. Instead, we must first calculate the definite integral up to some finite limit b and then calculate the limit of the result as b tends to ∞:
Volume
We can calculate the horn's volume using the volume integral above, so
The total volume of this infinitely long trumpet isπ.
Surface Area
To determine the surface area, we first need the function’s derivative:
Now plug it into the surface area formula and we have:
This is an improper integral and it's hard to evaluate, but since in our interval 
So, we have :
Now,we evaluate this last integral
So the surface are is infinite.

When it comes to MOS tube burnout, it is usually because it is not working in the SOA workspace, and there is also a case where the MOS tube is overcurrent.
For example, the maximum allowable current of the PMOS transistor in this circuit is 50A, and the maximum current reaches 80+ at the moment when the MOS transistor is turned on, then the current is very large.
At this time, the PMOS is over-specified, and we can see on the SOA curve that it is not working in the SOA range, which will cause the PMOS to be damaged.
So what if you choose a higher current PMOS? Of course you can, but the cost will be higher.
We can choose to adjust the peripheral resistance or capacitor to make the PMOS turn on more slowly, so that the current can be lowered.
For example, when adjusting R1, R2, and the jumper capacitance between gs, when Cgs is adjusted to 1uF, The Ids are only 40A max, which is fine in terms of current, and meets the 80% derating.
(50 amps * 0.8 = 40 amps).
Next, let’s look at the power, from the SOA curve, the opening time of the MOS tube is about 1ms, and the maximum power at this time is 280W.
The normal thermal resistance of the chip is 50°C/W, and the maximum junction temperature can be 302°F.
Assuming the ambient temperature is 77°F, then the instantaneous power that 1ms can withstand is about 357W.
The actual power of PMOS here is 280W, which does not exceed the limit, which means that it works normally in the SOA area.
Therefore, when the current impact of the MOS transistor is large at the moment of turning, the Cgs capacitance can be adjusted appropriately to make the PMOS Working in the SOA area, you can avoid the problem of MOS corruption.
I am trying to earn my Intro to MATLAB badge in Cody, but I cannot click the Roll the Dice! problem. It simply is not letting me click it, therefore I cannot earn my badge. Does anyone know who I should contact or what to do?
Hi everyone,
I need deep orientation to make calculation of speed and Angle for the absolute encoder RM22SC with signal (data+, Data-, Clock +, Clock -) using Launchpad F28379D and Simulink.
I did interface the absolute encoder with IC DS26LS32CN and I did get signal Data and Clock. I did use the GPIO20 for Data and GPIO21 for Clock and connect both to the Matlab Function block to get as output the position. See the code on attached. The output of the Matlab function times 2*pi/8192 to get the angle. However, I don't get anything as value.
Matlab Fuction Block code
function position = decodeSSI(data, clock)
%#codegen
persistent bitCounter shiftRegister prevClock
if isempty(bitCounter)
bitCounter = uint32(0);
shiftRegister = uint32(0);
prevClock = uint32(0);
end
% Parameters
numBits = 13; % Number of bits in the SSI word
% Rising edge detection for clock
clock = uint32(clock); % Ensure clock is of type integer
clockRisingEdge = (clock == 1) && (prevClock == 0);
prevClock = clock;
if clockRisingEdge
bitCounter = bitCounter + 1;
% Shift in the data bit
shiftRegister = bitor(bitshift(shiftRegister, 1), uint32(data));
% Check if we have received the full word
if bitCounter == numBits
position = shiftRegister;
% Reset for the next word
bitCounter = uint32(0);
shiftRegister = uint32(0);
else
position = uint32(0); % or NaN to indicate incomplete data
end
else
position = uint32(0); % or retain the last valid position
end
end
Problem statement: I've written a visualization that I'd like to use on potentially hundreds of different channels in my commerical account. Because it contains code that's unique to the channel (channel id, read API key, etc.) I have to create and maintain a duplicate visualization for each channel. This is wasteful, a source of errors, and almost intractable for a commercial customer with a high channel count.
My request is that MATLAB Visualizations be extended to support parameters, but only a predefined set to reduce the scope. I would propose a subset of the parameters currently supported by the ThingSpeak API. For example, thingSpeakRead supports (requires) readChannelID, NumPoints, and a ReadKey etc. If those were elevated to also be allowed as Visualization parameters, I imagine it would satisfy a large subset of user needs.
The poor man's version of this would be if ThingSpeak supported just one special parameter, such as %CHANNEL_ID%. If this was available within the visualization code one could use it as a key into table to get the other pieces of data like API keys, etc. It would be have to be passed on the visualization url (https://thingspeak.com/apps/matlab_visualizations/573779?readChannelID=xxxxx). Not sure how the visualization would pick it up in the use case where it's called from the ThingSpeak website under the user's list of MATLAB Visualizations. Perhaps it can be prompted for.
I initially considered user defined functions or libraries but they are not supported and I can see that that would require even more development work to support. The workarounds described in this thread aren't suitable for me. https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/2102981-how-to-use-private-functions-lib-in-thingspeak?s_tid=srchtitle_community_thingspeak_14_libraries

Hello everyone, i hope you all are in good health. i need to ask you about the help about where i should start to get indulge in matlab. I am an electrical engineer but having experience of construction field. I am new here. Please do help me. I shall be waiting forward to hear from you. I shall be grateful to you. Need recommendations and suggestions from experienced members. Thank you.
I recently wrote up a document which addresses the solution of ordinary and partial differential equations in Matlab (with some Python examples thrown in for those who are interested). For ODEs, both initial and boundary value problems are addressed. For PDEs, it addresses parabolic and elliptic equations. The emphasis is on finite difference approaches and built-in functions are discussed when available. Theory is kept to a minimum. I also provide a discussion of strategies for checking the results, because I think many students are too quick to trust their solutions. For anyone interested, the document can be found at https://blanchard.neep.wisc.edu/SolvingDifferentialEquationsWithMatlab.pdf
