Dihedral (aircraft) — For other uses, see Dihedral. The upward tilt of the wings and tailplane of an aircraft, as seen on this Boeing 737, is called dihedral angle Dihedral angle is the upward angle from horizontal of the wings or tailplane of a fixed wing aircraft.… … Wikipedia
Dihedral group — This snowflake has the dihedral symmetry of a regular hexagon. In mathematics, a dihedral group is the group of symmetries of a regular polygon, including both rotations and reflections.[1] Dihedr … Wikipedia
Dihedral group of order 6 — The smallest non abelian group has 6 elements. It is a dihedral group with notation D3 (or D6, both are used) and the symmetric group of degree 3, with notation S3. This page illustrates many group concepts using this group as example. Contents 1 … Wikipedia
Gauche effect — Main article: alkane stereochemistry The term gauche refers to conformational isomers (conformers) where two vicinal groups are separated by a 60° torsion angle. IUPAC defines groups as gauche if they have a synclinal alignment of groups attached … Wikipedia
Keel effect — In AviationThe result of the lift being above the center of gravity (aircraft) in high wing aircraft. Results in a tendency for the aircraft to return to level flight when the aircraft is put into a bank. Low wing aircraft use wing dihedral to… … Wikipedia
Flight dynamics — is the science of air and space vehicle orientation and control in three dimensions. The three critical flight dynamics parameters are the angles of rotation in three dimensions about the vehicle s center of mass, known as pitch , roll and yaw… … Wikipedia
Ultralight trike — An ultralight trike, also known as a flex wing trike, weight shift control aircraft, microlight trike, deltatrike[1] or motorized deltaplane,[2] is a type of powered hang glider using a high performance Rogallo wing coupled to a propeller powered … Wikipedia
