The function is given by: 1~(x1^2 + x2^2 + x3^2 - chi0*(x1*x2 + x1*x3 + x2*x3))/eps0^2 + (x1 + x2 + x3)/xi0 Where eps0 = 0.0066, chi0 = -0.66 and xi0 = 0.011 are obtained from experimental data using nls().I am able to plot the experimental points that delivered the parameters of the function. For my thesis, however, I need to overlay the fitted surface. So far I am using the following code which wonderfully plots the experimental points in 3D: =================================================================== # from demo(bivar) require(rgl) require(misc3d) require(MASS); # New window open3d() # clear scene: clear3d("all") # setup env. That is, background, light and so on: bg3d(color="#887777") light3d() # spheres at points in principal strain space #spheres3d(e1,e2,e3,radius=0.00025,color="#CCCCFF") # draws points alternatively plot3d(e1,e2,e3, col="#CCCCFF") =================================================================== According to the examples on http://rgl.neoscientists.org/gallery.shtml I tried to overlay the point plot using surface3d. However, these were only functions of type y ~f(x1, x2). I think that the surface could be plotted if I could provide the gridpoints correctly. Using xyz.coords(1~(x1^2 + x2^2 + x3^2 - chi0*(x1*x2 + x1*x3 + x2*x3))/eps0^2 + (x1 + x2 + x3)/xi0, y = NULL, z = NULL) did unfortunately not solve the problem. Is there any function that can generate the surface for the given function such as ContourPlot3D in Mathematica.
