Emperor...Citizen? I'm glad you didn't get chased off from the thread. When I first logged in to the forums, the first real insight I received was when I posted this VW Trekker and you improved it.
I've taken the same journey as you—that's what prompted the 'Does it have to be a half-body...' thread. I was asking how much violence you can do to the template and still have it respect you. Nobody addressed it as I had hoped. My thinking is if the lateral section is semi-elliptical, say as tall as it is wide, then the air movement in section will be faster than the movement in plan; so the taper in plan increases and the taper in section decreases to subdue lateral air movement. How much?
A squircle can range from almost a square (vortexes) to almost a circle (no vortexes). How close can you approach square comfortably?
Sven7 -- "How about that Morelli Shape?" was linked to a thread from 2010. I was thinking about that *thread* more than the design aerohead deconstructed. It ran 19 pages and who appears on page 19?
