Hi,

I have been solving a system of non-linear ODE's for their steady states. This involves solving the rhs of the ODE's =0.

Hence I have been using "solve" in maple to solve a non-linear system.

Recently I have added more detail to the problem and now I am solving eight equations for eight variables and i've left overnight and maple still didnt find a solution. When sigma1=sigma2=0 below the problem is effectively 5-d and maple breezes through the calculation.
