Aircraft component and aircraft gas-turbine engine
An aircraft component is used for an aircraft gas-turbine engine. The aircraft component includes an annular part, a flange, and a boss. The annular part has an outer circumferential surface. The flange is formed at one end portion of the annular part in an axial direction. The boss projects from the outer circumferential surface of the annular part to the radial direction. On a section cut along an axial direction of the annular part, the outer circumferential surface of the annular part between the flange and the boss has a taper part that is formed into a tapered shape in which plate thickness becomes thicker from the flange toward the boss.

Configuration for vertical take-off and landing system for aerial vehicles
A vehicle, includes a main body. A fluid generator is coupled to the main body and produces a fluid stream. At least one fore conduit and at least one tail conduit are fluidly coupled to the generator. First and second fore ejectors are fluidly coupled to the fore conduit, coupled to the main body and respectively coupled to a starboard side and port side of the vehicle. The fore ejectors respectively comprise an outlet structure out of which fluid flows. At least one tail ejector is fluidly coupled to the tail conduit. The tail ejector comprises an outlet structure out of which fluid flows. A primary airfoil element is coupled to the tail portion. A surface of the primary airfoil element is located directly downstream of the first and second fore ejectors such that the fluid from the first and second fore ejectors flows over the such surface.
