Hi, you can't because the region you are ploting is in the first case {{t, 0, 9}, {a, 0, 9}} in the second one {t, 0, 720}, {a, 0, 720} and you see the difference of a magnification factor 80 while you will have no problems with an ant, when you magnify the ant by a factor of 80 it *will* look different. Regards Jens <aitor69gonzalez at gmail.com> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:ei9nuo$1ps$1 at smc.vnet.net... | 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. | | Aitor |
