Jan 21, 2010 at 10:47 comment added Quantumplation =/ I must be doing something wrong then. In Mathematica, I define d, a, vi, and vf as 5, 1, 1, 1 respectively. I then Plot[{d, position[t)]},{t, 0, tf}]. If vi and vf are both zero, the solution is a nice curve from position zero, landing perfectly on d. If vi and vf are anything else, however, ts comes out way higher than it needs to be. The equation for tf, though, is fine. :-S Sorry for all the hassle. Thank you so much for taking the time to help. :)

Jan 19, 2010 at 18:50 comment added Quantumplation Hm, your solutions work only when v_i and v_f are 0, and rapidly explode for even low values. :-S
Jan 19, 2010 at 15:10 comment added Quantumplation Ooo, This looks promising. I don't suppose you have the time to show how you derived the first two equations? Once I get home (at a friends house currently), I'll plug this into Mathematica to make sure I didn't miscommunicate what I was going for. (I tend to be terrible at explaining what it is I'm actually trying to achieve. ^^)
