How to plot these functions in 3D space

Hi,
I want to plot the following variables U, s1, s2, x1 and x2 in a 3D plot. How do I go about this in MATLAB?
if true
if x1*(x1 - x2) >= 0
s1 = x1;
else
s1 = 0;
end
if -x2*(x1 - x2) >= 0
s2 = x2;
else
s2 =0;
end
U = G*(a*s1 + (1-a)*s2); % G and a are constants.
end
From what I understand this will require a sampling frequency. F = 100000 should suffice for my needs. I just want to know what the approach is for such problems.
Thanks.
Shilp

Are you looking for 3D line graphs? Surface graphs? Solid objects?
Which variables are to be on the two axis? x1 and x2, right?
How do you want to handle the fact that you have 3 output variables based on x1 and x2? That is, s1, s2, and U ?
You did not indicate what was to be sampled at F = 100000. You also did not indicate the range of the variables that are to be plotted at that frequency.
Have you noticed that if x1 >= 0 and x2 < 0, then both s1 and s2 will be non-zero? Whereas for positive x1 and x2, only one of them will be non-zero.

It's still not clear to me what you mean by F=1e5. You cannot plot a 1e5 x 1e5 array of data. It will be too huge. Below is my guess as to what you really want.
[x1,x2]=ndgrid(linspace(-100,100,1000));
s1=x1;
s1(x1*(x1 - x2) < 0)=0;
surf(x1,x2,s1);
and similarly for s2 and U...
