Definitions

  • IRE31 OMPI portion of the machine that projects beyond the sudden drop can be supported by a form of ground effect due to recirculation as described above even though it would be at a height above the ground surface below it that is greater than the maximum height at which an air cushion can be maintained.
  • Figure 10 shows that the machine moves above the sharp edge substantially horizontally and then descends gradually until it comes close to the lower ground surface where it bounces upon an air cushion that is formed between its underside and that surface, and by which it is supported for further movement over that lower surface.
  • the stabilising pod which is supported above the frame 52 is not shown for convenience.
