  2. Wingtip device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wingtip_device

    Once the performance of the winglet itself was optimized, attention was turned to the transition between the wing and winglet. A common application was tapering the transition area from the wing tip chord to the winglet chord and raking the transition area back, to place the winglet in the optimal position. If the tapered portion was canted ...

  6. Computational complexity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_complexity

    The usual units of time (seconds, minutes etc.) are not used in complexity theory because they are too dependent on the choice of a specific computer and on the evolution of technology. For instance, a computer today can execute an algorithm significantly faster than a computer from the 1960s; however, this is not an intrinsic feature of the ...
