Question: Origami - Angles Optimization - NLPSolve

Hello everybody,

I am new on this forum, and please to join your community.
As part of a project related to Origami, I try to follow the paper entitled "Mathematical Approach to Model Foldable Conical Structures Using Conformal Mapping", in order to flat-fold a conical structure.

As described in the paper a non-linear system need to be solved in order to get a corrected angle beta... The paper advize the use of "fsolve" function in Matlab, but I did not manage to do it... So I tried with Maple, but I get an error using NLPSolve, and I do not understand why...

Here is the edited, withdrawn and finally back file : Angle.mw

Do not hesitate to ask for any other explanations.

Any help is going to be appreciated.

Cheers,
