Elliptic cylindrical coordinates are a three-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system that results from projecting the two-dimensional elliptic coordinate system in the perpendicular -direction. Hence, the coordinate surfaces are prisms of confocal ellipses and hyperbolae. The two foci and are generally taken to be fixed at and , respectively, on the -axis of the Cartesian coordinate system. ==Basic definition== The most common definition of elliptic cylindrical coordinates is : : : where is a nonnegative real number and . These definitions correspond to ellipses and hyperbolae. The trigonometric identity : shows that curves of constant form ellipses, whereas the hyperbolic trigonometric identity : shows that curves of constant form hyperbolae. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elliptic cylindrical coordinates」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
