2. Stall (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stall_(fluid_dynamics)

   In generic terms, a stick pusher is known as a stall identification device or stall identification system. [73] A stick shaker is a mechanical device that shakes the pilot's controls to warn of the onset of stall. A stall warning is an electronic or mechanical device that sounds an audible warning as the stall speed is approached. The majority ...

3. Icing (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

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

   The wing will ordinarily stall at a lower angle of attack, and thus a higher airspeed, when contaminated with ice because of the significantly lowered lift coefficient and increased aerodynamic drag. [6] Even small amounts of ice will have an effect, and if the ice is rough, it can be a large effect nonetheless.

4. Minecraft server - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minecraft_server

   A Minecraft server is a player-owned or business-owned multiplayer game server for the 2011 Mojang Studios video game Minecraft. In this context, the term "server" often refers to a network of connected servers, rather than a single machine. [ 1 ]

5. Coffin corner (aerodynamics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffin_corner_(aerodynamics)

   Coffin corner (also known as the aerodynamic ceiling [1] or Q corner) is the region of flight where a fast but subsonic fixed-wing aircraft's stall speed is near the critical Mach number, at a given gross weight and G-force loading. In this region of flight, it is very difficult to keep an airplane in stable flight.

6. Washout (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

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

   On aircraft with swept wings, wing tip stall also produces an undesirable nose-up pitching moment which hampers recovery from the stall. Washout may be accomplished by other means e.g. modified aerofoil section, vortex generators, leading edge wing fences, notches, or stall strips. This is referred to as aerodynamic washout.

7. Spin (aerodynamics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_(aerodynamics)

   Spin — an aggravated stall and autorotation. In flight dynamics a spin is a special category of stall resulting in autorotation (uncommanded roll) about the aircraft's longitudinal axis and a shallow, rotating, downward path approximately centred on a vertical axis. [1]

8. Lift coefficient - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_coefficient

   The definition becomes = ′, where is the reference length that should always be specified: in aerodynamics and airfoil theory usually the airfoil chord is chosen, while in marine dynamics and for struts usually the thickness is chosen. Note this is directly analogous to the drag coefficient since the chord can be interpreted as the "area per ...

9. Vortex lattice method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_lattice_method

   Simulation of an airplane using Open VOGEL, an open source framework for aerodynamic simulations based in the UVLM. The Vortex lattice method, (VLM), is a numerical method used in computational fluid dynamics, mainly in the early stages of aircraft design and in aerodynamic education at university level.
