Question: Error when simplifying

Hi everybody

In the following attached file that is a simple code, 2 problems occur:

1- The values of Lc1 and Lc2 are specified in the third and fourth lines of the code. when I execute Pcl10, Maple does not replace Lc1 with its value that is 0.5*L. This problem does not happen for Tcl10 and Tcl21. Why Maple does not replace Lc1 with its value that is specified at the start of the worksheet?

2- In the last line, when I try to simplify the Tcl10, Maple returns an error, while for example the first element i.e. Tcl20(1,1) can be simplified as: cos(thet1+thet2). What is the source of error?

 

Thanks in advance
