I'm pretty that when you see "sin 2x" you need to type sin(2*x), and for 
"sin 2x cos y sin z" you need to type sin(2*x)*cos(y)*sin(z).

After trying to take the whole equation literally, the result I
received did not closely resemble the image you linked to. It was
similar, but the structures were not thin and the transitions were
quite lumpy.
