Question: Simplification of trigonometric expression. II

Hello,

In the post :

http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/209721-Simplification-Of-Trigonometric-Expressions

you have help me to build a procedure so as to simplify trigonometric expressions of the following form, that is to say where each trigonometric expression is in factor with a term :

x0(t)+sin(alpha0(t))*sin(gamma0(t))*sin(beta0(t))*xb[1]-sin(alpha0(t))*sin(beta0(t))*cos(gamma0(t))*zb[1]-sin(alpha0(t))*cos(beta0(t))*yb[1]+cos(alpha0(t))*sin(gamma0(t))*zb[1]+cos(alpha0(t))*cos(gamma0(t))*xb[1]-l2[1]*(sin(psi[1](t))*sin(alpha0(t))*sin(gamma0(t))*sin(beta0(t))-cos(psi[1](t))*sin(alpha0(t))*sin(beta0(t))*cos(gamma0(t))+sin(psi[1](t))*cos(alpha0(t))*cos(gamma0(t))+cos(psi[1](t))*cos(alpha0(t))*sin(gamma0(t)))-l3[1]*(sin(theta[1](t))*sin(psi[1](t))*sin(alpha0(t))*sin(beta0(t))*cos(gamma0(t))+sin(theta[1](t))*cos(psi[1](t))*sin(alpha0(t))*sin(gamma0(t))*sin(beta0(t))+cos(theta[1](t))*sin(psi[1](t))*sin(alpha0(t))*sin(gamma0(t))*sin(beta0(t))-cos(theta[1](t))*cos(psi[1](t))*sin(alpha0(t))*sin(beta0(t))*cos(gamma0(t))-sin(theta[1](t))*sin(psi[1](t))*cos(alpha0(t))*sin(gamma0(t))+sin(theta[1](t))*cos(psi[1](t))*cos(alpha0(t))*cos(gamma0(t))+cos(theta[1](t))*sin(psi[1](t))*cos(alpha0(t))*cos(gamma0(t))+cos(theta[1](t))*cos(psi[1](t))*cos(alpha0(t))*sin(gamma0(t)))-xp[1](t) = 0

From a mechanical point of view, this form of equations comes from the constraint equations obtained with a vectorial closure.

Now I would like to silmplify the constraint equations which come form angular closure.

The equations are in the form :

sin(gamma0(t))*cos(beta0(t)) = -(sin(psi[1](t))*cos(theta[1](t))*cos(gamma[1](t))+sin(psi[1](t))*sin(theta[1](t))*sin(gamma[1](t))-cos(theta[1](t))*cos(psi[1](t))*sin(gamma[1](t))+cos(psi[1](t))*sin(theta[1](t))*cos(gamma[1](t)))*cos(beta[1](t))

i try to treat the right side with the following code :

applyrule([
cos(u::anything)*cos(v::anything)-sin(u::anything)*sin(v::anything)=cos(u+v),
cos(u::anything)*sin (v::anything)+sin(u::anything)*cos(v::anything)=sin(u+v),
sin(u::anything)*sin(v::anything)-cos(u::anything)*cos(v::anything)=-cos(u+v),
-sin(v::anything)*cos(u::anything)-sin(u::anything)*cos(v::anything)=-sin(u+v)], simplify(-(sin(psi[1](t))*cos(theta[1](t))*cos(gamma[1](t))+sin(psi[1](t))*sin(theta[1](t))*sin(gamma[1](t))-cos(theta[1](t))*cos(psi[1](t))*sin(gamma[1](t))+cos(psi[1](t))*sin(theta[1](t))*cos(gamma[1](t)))*cos(beta[1](t)), size))

The result is :

(-sin(theta[1](t)+psi[1](t))*cos(gamma[1](t))+sin(gamma[1](t))*cos(theta[1](t)+psi[1](t)))*cos(beta[1](t))

It seems that the result is not simplified enough. I would like to obtain this expression :

cos(beta[1](t))*sin(gamma[1](t)-theta[1](t)-psi[1](t))

Have you a idea why the simplification is not conducted once more ? Do you have ideas so as to simplify the equation so as to obtain the result mentioned ?

Thanks a lot for your help
