Dear Paolo,

It is understandable that including the point "r=0" in a mesh demands 
special care, and so needs revision of some subroutines. Of course this 
is(?!) needless and more boring than that of just writing a small code to do 
the interpolations.
Thank you very much for your comments.

Best regards,
mahmoud
