CONT

The shape optimization approach of the cambered otter board has been performed by the integration of the neural network model and the multi-objective genetic algorithm... the excellent performance of the otter board is expressed by great lift and less drag force... The Bézier curve represented the cambered otter board as a simple structure with five control points... The hydrodynamic characteristics of [the] otter board models were calculated in a two-dimension computational fluid dynamics(CFD) analysis at an attack angle of 20 [degrees].

Record 3 2006-05-11

English

Subject field(s)
  • Skydiving, Paragliding and Hang Gliding
CONT

The colorful cloth that suspends us is known as the canopy or wing. There is an upper surface and a lower surface to this canopy as well as a leading edge and trailing edge. The upper and lower surfaces are held together by ribs that are shaped to create a cross section like a bird’s or airplane’s wing.

CONT

The canopy is constructed of a top and bottom surface joined by a number of vertical segments. When it is fully inflated, the cell takes up an aerofoil shape with a flattish lower surface and a curved, or cambered, top surface.

French

Record 5 2004-10-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Aeronautical Engineering and Maintenance
CONT

His experiments led to the development of the cambered aerofoil, a feature that generated much more lift than a flat surface. Put simply, a curved wing surface causes the air traveling over the upper surface to move faster, and travel further, than the air passing along the lower surface of the wing. The air passing over the top surface has a slightly reduced pressure. The greater pressure below the wing exerts an upwards force, called lift, and within certain limits increases with airspeed.

Machine utilisée pour le cintrage des pièces de bois ou des tubes métalliques. (Les cintreuses utilisent l'effort soit d'une vis, soit d'un vérin à huile).

OBS

cintrage : Opération consistant à donner une forme courbe à des pièces de bois, à des barres ou à des tubes de métal, à convertir les tôles planes de métal en cônes ou en cylindres.

OBS

Cintrage des tubes. Il peut être effectué au moyen d'une cintreuse; il peut être exécuté à froid pour les petits diamètres. Pour conserver au tube son diamètre intérieur constant, on le remplit au préalable de résine, ou d'un alliage à bas point de fusion, ou de sable. Pour les diamètres plus importants, le cintrage est exécuté à chaud, le tube étant rempli de sable sec et bien tassé.
