  2. Elliptical wing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical_wing

    An elliptical spanwise lift distribution cannot be achieved by an untwisted wing with an elliptical planform because there is a logarithmic term in the lift distribution that becomes important near the wing tips. [4] Elliptical wing planforms are more difficult to manufacture. [5] In it, either leading edge or trailing edge or both are curved ...

  3. Lifting-line theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting-line_theory

    The Lanchester-Prandtl lifting-line theory [1] is a mathematical model in aerodynamics that predicts lift distribution over a three-dimensional wing from the wing's geometry. [2] The theory was expressed independently [3] by Frederick W. Lanchester in 1907, [4] and by Ludwig Prandtl in 1918–1919 [5] after working with Albert Betz and Max Munk ...

  4. Wingtip vortices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wingtip_vortices

    Wingtip vortices are circular patterns of rotating air left behind a wing as it generates lift. [1]: 5.14 The name is a misnomer because the cores of the vortices are slightly inboard of the wing tips. [2]: 369 Wingtip vortices are sometimes named trailing or lift-induced vortices because they also occur at points other than at the wing tips.

  5. Flap (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flap_(aeronautics)

    The ideal lift distribution across a wing is elliptical, and extending partial-span flaps causes a significant departure from the elliptical. This increases lift-induced drag which can be beneficial during approach and landing because it allows the aircraft to descend at a steeper angle. Extending the wing flaps increases the camber or ...

  6. Wing configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_configuration

    Joined wing: a tandem-wing layout in which the front low wing sweeps back and/or the rear high wing sweeps forwards such that they join at or near the tips to form a continuous surface in a hollow diamond or triangle shape. [7] The Ligeti Stratos is a rare example. [8] Rhomboidal wing: a

  7. Ludwig Prandtl - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwig_Prandtl

    Ludwig Prandtl (4 February 1875 – 15 August 1953) [1] was a German fluid dynamicist, physicist and aerospace scientist. He was a pioneer in the development of rigorous systematic mathematical analyses which he used for underlying the science of aerodynamics, which have come to form the basis of the applied science of aeronautical engineering. [2]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Material_Handling

    In 2002, Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A., Inc. (TMHU)—the North American industrial equipment sales and distribution arm of Toyota—was established in Irvine, California. [8] The same year, it became the number one selling lift truck company in America. [9]

  9. Lift (force) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_(force)

    Given the distribution of bound vorticity and the vorticity in the wake, the Biot–Savart law (a vector-calculus relation) can be used to calculate the velocity perturbation anywhere in the field, caused by the lift on the wing. Approximate theories for the lift distribution and lift-induced drag of three-dimensional wings are based on such ...
