What is an anhedral of an airplane?
Anhedral refers to the downward slope of an aircrafts wings.
What does anhedral mean?
Anhedral is the negative "tilt" of a wing like what is found on a harrier jet. When you look at the wings of a passanger jet liner you see that they are tilted up, this is called "dihedral", anhedral is the opposite of this, with a downward tilt rather than an upward one. Anhedral is usually used to cause an inherent instability to increase the maneuverability of an aircraft.
What are anhedral and dihedral in aircrafts?
Anhedral and dihedral refer to the angle of an aircrafts wings in relation to the horizontal plane of the aircraft. Most aircraft have wings which are angled upward from the wing root. This is called dihedral. Some aircraft have wings which are angled downward from the wing root. This is called anhedral.
What is euhedral crystal and anhedral crystals?
Euhedral crystals are well-formed crystals with distinct faces and sharp edges due to their growth in an unrestricted environment. Anhedral crystals lack defined crystal faces and edges because they formed in a confined space or in competition with surrounding minerals, resulting in irregular shapes.
Are geodes filled with anhedral crystals on its walls?
Geodes typically contain euhedral crystals (well-formed, distinct crystal shapes) lining the inside walls. These crystals form when mineral-laden water enters a cavity in a rock and then precipitates out to form the surface of the geode. Anhedral crystals, which lack well-defined faces and shapes, are less commonly found in geodes.
Why are the F4 Phantom Elevators Angled Down?
The Phantom elevators are angled down ( called anhedral ) to make it more unstable. -Does that sound crazy -well, fighters ( remember the Phantom was designed as a naval fighter ) perform dogfights MUCH better if they are inherently unstable. -That big machine could barrel roll faster than you could blink -

Why do aircraft designers use dihedral angle?
In general terms, in aircraft design dihedral, or a wing angled slightly upwards, contributes to the stability of the aircraft. Wing design has evolved immensely and with almost every new aircraft, new things appear. -Point of example is the upright wing extension many new airliners 'wear' - they figured out that a small amount of air 'slipping off' the wingtip added to fuel consumption. --Look at many fighter aircraft and see absolutely level or even anhedral wings (angled down) - this is because you don't want a fighter to be stable - a fighter pilot would prefer to flip over on his back in a millisecond - and many can ! - I remember the old F-4 Phantom with it's anhedral tail surfaces as being able to do a 'barrel roll' in the time you could blink !

What is the oldest cut of diamond?
From Wikipedia: "The history of diamond cuts can be traced to the late Middle Ages, before which time diamonds were enjoyed in their natural octahedral state-anhedral (poorly formed) diamonds simply were not used in jewelry. The first 'improvements' on nature's design involved a simple polishing of the octahedral crystal faces to create even and unblemished facets, or to fashion the desired octahedral shape out of an otherwise unappealing piece of rough." You can read more about the cut of diamonds, below.
