java.lang.Objectorg.apache.commons.math3.geometry.euclidean.threed.SphericalCoordinates
public class SphericalCoordinates
This class provides conversions related to spherical coordinates.
The conventions used here are the mathematical ones, i.e. spherical coordinates are related to Cartesian coordinates as follows:
r is the radius, θ is the azimuthal angle in the x-y plane and Φ is the polar (co-latitude) angle. These conventions are different from the conventions used in physics (and in particular in spherical harmonics) where the meanings of θ and Φ are reversed.
This class provides conversion of coordinates and also of gradient and Hessian between spherical and Cartesian coordinates.

public double[][] toCartesianHessian(double[][] sHessian, double[] sGradient)
As Hessian are always symmetric, we use only the lower left part of the provided spherical Hessian, so the upper part may not be initialized. However, we still do fill up the complete array we create, with guaranteed symmetry.
sHessian
- Hessian with respect to spherical coordinates
