    Disk-cyclic coordinate systems are based on a conformal transformation using the Jacobian elliptic functions. The expressions for coordinate surfaces of this system are found to be incorrect. Rederivation of the expressions involved a relatively tedious variable elimination process which the authors therefore carry out using symbolic algebraic computation with the MACSYSMA package.
