[GRASS-user] cutting a 3d volume with a 2d surface

Dears, can I "cut" a 3d volume using a 2d (ok, 2.5d) surface?
interpolating wir r3.* gives me the results inside a rectangular
prism. can I use a surface (like topography) to remove the upper part
of the volume?

tks

.. sounds more like a job for r3.mapcalc...

Hello Markus, thanks for your reply.

Actually is something more like the png attached. The result is not a
2.5D surface, but a 3D solid.
Maybe Paraview can do it?

best
