and D; A, and r have the same meaning as before and f a positive angle through
which a tangent to the boundary rotates in turning or traveling around the
reentrant portion, measured in radians (here r is negative).
The preceding formulas should also be used for cases 17 and 18 when t is
relatively large compared with radius of median line.
