And I've figured out that R. Buchheim is an author of aerodynamic works, but I don't know what his specific contribution is and the importance of his name as a reference is.

Given time I could probably figure it out, but spelling it out will help me.
Buchheim and his associates investigated rear slope angles and Hucho reported that Buchheim et al. reported that 23-degrees would be the maximum angle which could support attached flow.If you look at Buchheim's illustrations,you'll measure 22.5-degrees.
I've stuck with 22-degrees as a conservative figure.But feel free to 'go wild' at 22.5-degrees!
