Hello,
I have a function like:
phi(a,t) = sin(2*pi*(t-a)/T' + a/T)
where "T" is itself a function of "a" like here:
####
Plot3D[Sin[2*\[Pi]*((t - a)/3 + a/(a + 1))], {t, 0, 9}, {a, 0, 9},
AxesLabel -> {"t", "a", "ex"}, Lighting -> False,
ViewPoint -> {0, 0, 100}, PlotPoints -> 40, Mesh -> False];
####
Therefore, I would like to define T separately. Something like here:
####
T[a_] = a + 1;
phi[a_, t_] = Sin[2*\[Pi]*((t - a)/3 + a/T[a])];
Plot3D[phi[a, t], {t, 0, 720}, {a, 0, 720}, AxesLabel -> {"t", "a",
"ex"},
Lighting -> False, ViewPoint -> {0, 0, 100}, PlotPoints -> 40,
Mesh -> False]
####
But as you can see, both plots do not look like the same. How can I
define a "T" as a function of a separately?
Thank you in advance.
