Abstract :
The promise shown by pioneering computer algebra routines developed in the 1950s and 1960s has now been fully realised in modern general-purpose packages of high quality. This article outlines a little of the background to mathematical symbolic computation, and gives an example of its use in the automated dynamic modelling of a mechanical system that is common in control.
