airfoil2wing(X2D, Y2D, WingSpan, MeshSize) returns a 3D surface plot of
the wing described by X2D and Y2D airfoil.
Inputs:
- X2D: column/row vector containing the X-xoordinates of the
airfoil
- Y2D: column/row vector containing the Y-xoordinates of the
airfoil
- WingSpan: a scalar describing the desired span of the wing.
- MeshSize: an integer number describing the number of mesh
elements along the length of the wing
- varargin (Optional): options for the surf function
Outputs:
- X3D, Y3D, Z3D: 2D matrices containing the x, y, and z coordinates
of the surface of the wing
