    Elliptic Cylindrical Coordinates

    Definition

    The v coordinates are the asymptotic angle of confocal hyperbolic cylinders symmetrical about the x-axis. The u coordinates are confocal elliptic cylinders centered on the origin. x | = | a cosh u cos v y | = | a sinh u sin v z | = | z, where u element [0, ∞), v element [0, 2π), and z element (-∞, ∞).
