For a paper dealing with generalized ellipsoids, I want to illustrate in
3D an ellipsoid that is unbounded
in one dimension, having the shape of an infinite cylinder along, say,
z, but whose cross-section in (x,y)
is an ellipse, say, given by the 2x2 matrix cov(x,y).
I've looked at rgl:::cylinder3d, but don't see any way to make it
accomplish this. Does anyone have
any ideas?
thx,
-Michael
