**Scale Factors:**
\[
h_i = \left| \frac{\partial R}{\partial u_i} \right| = \frac{1}{\sqrt{u_i}} \quad (i = 1, 2, 3)
\]
**Displacement Vector:**
\[
d\mathbf{R} = h_1 du_1 \mathbf{e}_1 + h_2 du_2 \mathbf{e}_2 + h_3 du_3 \mathbf{e}_3
\]
**Arc Length:**
\[
ds = \left( h_1^2 du_1^2 + h_2^2 du_2^2 + h_3^2 du_3^2 \right)^{1/2}
\]
**Volume Element:**
\[
dV = h_1 h_2 h_3 \, du_1 \, du_2 \, du_3
\]
**Gradient:**
\[
\nabla f = \frac{1}{h_1} \frac{\partial f}{\partial u_1} \mathbf{e}_1 + \frac{1}{h_2} \frac{\partial f}{\partial u_2} \mathbf{e}_2 + \frac{1}{h_3} \frac{\partial f}{\partial u_3} \mathbf{e}_3
