Coordinate transformations

This section contains graphics in which the 2D or 3D coordinate system is first transformed using mapping functions and then calculated function or curve curves can also be transformed into the new coordinate system.

SymbolGraphicDescription
Transformation basis (2D)A graphical representation of a Cartesian 2D grid in the new coordinate system. This representation serves to provide a better overview. It is always displayed first when a new 2D coordinate transformation is performed.
Function mappings (2D)Displays a graph in which the values for x and y depend on two functions fx(t) and fy(t). This graph is then also displayed in the new coordinate system.
Transformation basis (3D)A graphical representation of a Cartesian 3D grid cube in the new coordinate system. This representation serves to provide a better overview. It is always displayed first for a new 3D coordinate transformation.
Function mappings (3D)Displays a graph in which the values for x, y and z depend on three functions fx(t), fy(t) and fz(t). This graph is then also displayed in the new coordinate system.
Surface mappings (3D)Displays a surface where the values for x, y and z depend on three functions fx(u,v), fy(u,v) and fz(u,v). This surface is then also displayed in the new coordinate system.
