Hi all,
Can anybody tell me the web link or notes about how to convert equations of motion in curvillinear co-ordinates to (xi,eta,sigma) co-ordinate system.
Thanks in advance.

Start from here: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/search/index.cgi?num=&q=curvilinear%20coordinates

The problem of coordinates convertion is called by the name of someone that i don't remember his name at this moment.
