Abstract. The present work is an amendment to Glauert's optimum rotor disk solution for the maximum power coefficient, CPmax, as a function of tip speed ratio, λ. First, an alternate mathematical approach is pursued towards the optimization problem by means of calculus of variations. Secondly, analytical solutions for thrust and bending moment coefficients, CT and CBe, are derived, where an interesting characteristic is revealed pertaining to their asymptotic behavior for λ→∞. In addition, the limit case of the non-rotating actuator disk for λ→0 is shown for all three performance coefficients by repeated use of L'Hôpital's theorem, and its validity is discussed in the context of other works since Glauert.

the title is awesome. there's a crisis in the tenth generation?! is that the famous star that guided the wise men?
I don't know anything about the story, I just like the title, hopefully I'm not propagating anything that I wouldn't. I don't mean to promote misogynist, racist, juvenile, jingoist, nationalist, or just not-very-good writing.

How do birds flock? Researchers do the math to reveal previously unknown #aerodynamic phenomenon
Findings have potential applications for transportation and energy
<p>How do birds fly in a coordinated and seemingly effortless fashion? Part of the answer lies in precise, and previously unknown, aerodynamic interactions, reports a team of mathematicians in a newly published study. Its breakthrough broadens our understanding of wildlife, including fish, who move in schools, and could have applications in transportation and energy.</p>
