ConfocalEllipsoidal

As of Version 9.0, vector analysis functionality is built into the Wolfram Language »

ConfocalEllipsoidal

represents the confocal ellipsoidal coordinate system with default variables Llambda, Mmu, and Nnu and default parameter values 3, 2, and 1.

ConfocalEllipsoidal[λ,μ,ν]

represents the confocal ellipsoidal coordinate system with variables λ, μ, and ν and default parameter values 3, 2, and 1.

ConfocalEllipsoidal[λ,μ,ν,a,b,c]

represents the confocal ellipsoidal coordinate system with variables λ, μ, and ν and parameters a, b, and c.

Details and Options

To use ConfocalEllipsoidal, you first need to load the Vector Analysis Package using Needs["VectorAnalysis`"].

Use ConfocalEllipsoidal as the default coordinate system:

All evaluations now use confocal ellipsoidal coordinates as the default:

Reset the default coordinate system to Cartesian:
