Abstract

The cylindrical coordinate systems are obtained by translating each of the maps, Figs. 2.01 to 2.21, in a direction perpendicular to the graphs, thus forming two orthogonal families of cylinders. The third family of coordinate surfaces consists of parallel planes, z = const. The coordinate axis that is parallel to the generators of the cylinders is called the z-axis in all cases.
