%% Graphs of a hyperbolic cylinder %% % Here are two ways to graph the hyperbolic cylinder % % $$x^2\,\mbox{--}\,y^2=1$$ % % in three dimensional space. Because the cylinder has two pieces, % I need two graphs, one for each piece, displayed together. %% The grid % I start by creating the grid of points for plotting. u=linspace(-2,2,50); v=linspace(-2,2,50); [U,V]=meshgrid(u,v); %% Using mesh mesh(cosh(U),sinh(U),V), hold on mesh(-cosh(U),sinh(U),V), hold off %% Using surf surf(cosh(U),sinh(U),V), hold on surf(-cosh(U),sinh(U),V), hold off
