Strangely enough, I get the following results:

I.e. simplify did not evaluate the derivative at all. That was using
Python 3.7 and sympy 1.5.
I tried this because my guess is that in the OP's original problem, the
variables 's' and 'u' had been accidentally overwritten somewhere
earlier in his sympy session- e.g.
s=0
u=0
Then the derivatives would obviously evaluate to zero.
