See QuadraticSurfaces.pdf. Other algebaric surfaces that has cross-sections of conic sections are: ellipsoid, paraboloid, hyperbolic paraboloid, hyperboloid of one sheet, hyperboloid of two sheets
The Hyperboloid of Two Sheets
The parametric equations for the Hyperboloid of Two Sheets are:
x = aa*sinh(u)*cos(v);
y = bb*sinh(u)*sin(v) ;
z = cc*cosh(u);
