Elliptic cylindrical coordinates
Elliptic cylindrical coordinates are a three-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system that results from projecting the two-dimensional elliptic coordinate system in the
perpendicular formula_1-direction. Hence, the coordinate surfaces are prisms of confocal ellipses and hyperbolae. The two foci 
formula_2 and formula_3 are generally taken to be fixed at formula_4 and
formula_5, respectively, on the formula_6-axis of the Cartesian coordinate system.
