The Haack series nose cones are not perfectly tangent to the body at their base except for the case where C = 2/3. However, the discontinuity is usually so slight as to be imperceptible. For C > 2/3, Haack nose cones bulge to a maximum diameter greater than the base diameter. Haack nose tips do not come to a sharp point, but are slightly rounded.

bullet nose design incorporating a secant ogive, tangent ogive, Von Kármán ogive or Sears-Haack profile [3] the use of tapered bullet heels, also known as boat-tails [ 1 ] a cavity or hollow in the bullet nose ( hollow point ) to reduce weight while shifting the projectile's centre of gravity rearwards [ 1 ] to improve stability with ...
English: A series of curves layered to illustrate different values for C in the formula given under Nose Cone Design#Haack series.Note that this diagramme has arbitrary width and height and will not necessarily show Length and Radius at a practical ratio.
The French word ogive can be translated as "nose cone" or "warhead". The traditional or secant ogive is a surface of revolution of the same curve that forms a Gothic arch ; that is, a circular arc , of greater radius than the diameter of the cylindrical section ("shank"), is drawn from the edge of the shank until it intercepts the axis.
Her breathy cover of “Santa Baby,” produced by Kardashian's brother-in-law, Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker, plays in the background, the audio distorted like background of a VHS home movie ...
A drag-reducing aerospike is a device (see nose cone design) used to reduce the forebody pressure aerodynamic drag of blunt bodies at supersonic speeds. The aerospike creates a detached shock ahead of the body. Between the shock and the forebody a zone of recirculating flow occurs which acts like a more streamlined forebody profile, reducing ...
Wood. With big fluffy plumes on the tops of their heads, Wood ducks are distinct among many other breeds. But what really sets these birds apart is the unique profile of the female duck, which ...
