C for Engineers and Scientists: An Interpretive Approach Startup a Ch Shell Startup in Unix If Ch is the login shell, you can readily use the Ch language environment. If not, you can type command ch at a terminal prompt to launch the Ch language environment. Startup in Windows There are five ways to get into the Ch language environment. For example, to start Ch Standard Edition 6.1 – Click the icon Ch Standard on the Desktop screen – Click Start->Programs->SoftIntegration Ch 6.1 Standard->Ch 6.1. – Click Start, followed by Run, then type ch.exe. – Go to the MS-DOS prompt, and type ch. – In ChIDE, click Ch

C for Engineers and Scientists: An Interpretive Approach A Sample Problem: The system in Figure1 (a) consists of a single body with mass m moving on a horizontal surface. An external force p acts on the body. The coefficient of kinetic friction between body and horizontal surface is . The freebody diagram for the system is shown in Figure1 (b). Figure1: The system diagram and FBD of a sample problem

16. Created by Harry H. Cheng,  2009 McGraw-Hill, Inc. All rights reserved. C for Engineers and Scientists: An Interpretive Approach The nomenclature related to the modeling of the system is listed below. m -- mass of the body x -- position of the body v -- velocity of the body a -- acceleration of the body g -- gravitational acceleration  -- friction coefficient f -- friction force N -- normal force p -- applied external force Equation of motion: The equation of the motion of the system can be derived based on the Newton's second law. N = mg (1) f =  N (2) p-f = ma (3) From equation (1), (2) and (3), the formula for calculating the acceleration of the rigid body can be derived as follows. a = (p-  mg)/m (4)

C for Engineers and Scientists: An Interpretive Approach Finding Commands in Ch Shell – The system variable _path of string type contains the directories to be searched for the command. – When a command shell is launched, the system variable _path contains some default search paths. – The user can add new directories to the search paths for the command shell by the following statements. Create an individual startup file.chrc in Unix and _chrc in Windows in your home directory by typing the command > ch –d in a Ch command shell.

C for Engineers and Scientists: An Interpretive Approach Windows: adding the following statement in the startup file _chrc in the user’s home directory can add C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/eme5 directory to the command search paths. _path = stradd(_path, “C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/eme5;”); Unix, Linux, and Mac machines: adding following two statements in the startup file.chrc in the user’s home directory can add /home/harry/eme5 directory and the current working directory to the command search paths. _ path = stradd(_path, “/home/harry/eme5;”); Add an alias alias(“go”, “cd C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/eme5”); // for Windows alias(“go”, “cd /home/harry/eme5”); // for Unix Run programs without typing the complete directory
