Hi, I have to graph the solid of the 3 cylinders, but I don't know how to do it. I need help, I was guiding myself with your code but the graph does not come out

That result of intersection can be build with one simple element
Define boundaries of element:
phi = 0 .. 45 degree
% R - radius of cylinder
X = R*cos(phi);
Y = R*sin(phi);
Z = 0 .. Y; % Z varies (because of 45 degree)
Then just just changing data with rotating system coordinates:
Then rotate around Z and Y

Could you pass me the code of your example?I am new to this and would like to know how to structure it.
Thanks

Here is another example
- start with usual meshgrid to create mesh
- modify Y coordinate
- calculate Z coordinate
- copy object

@darova I almost forgot to thank you, you should share your knowledge on youtube, brilliant people like you should be on that kind of platform! Thanks for everything!

Another example
- create zigzag
- refine it using interp1
- convert it to cylindrical coordinates
- add bottom part
- use different combination (X,Y,Z), (Z,Y,X), (X,Z,Y)
