- Description : Extrude field generates a 3D volume by applying a
- transformation matrix defined by the parameters to a 2D
- field. i.e. it "sweeps" a 2D field through 3-space to
- generate a 3D (irreguler) field. There were some
- researchers who had data sets that represented a slice of
- something axisymetric in 3-space. With extrude_field,
- one can recreate the 3D representation. This is also good
- for people who have 2D data sets, but the modules that they
- would like to use only accept 3D data sets.
