I'm tring to visualise some data i have a need a little help.
The format of the data is a magnitude and 2d polar co-ordinates of recorded stress values.
These readings must be visualised in a 3D manner representing a pipe. I can generate the start coordinates for each vector, but as each is on a 2D plane, i don't know how to create 3D vectors for these from only the magnitude and a set of polar co-ordinates, given there the only known 3D information is the start point of each vector.
Any help would be much appreciated!
