* ''R<sub>lower</sub>'' is the major radius of the lowest vertical point of the LCFS.
* ''R<sub>lower</sub>'' is the major radius of the lowest vertical point of the LCFS.
The upper triangularity is then defined as follows:
The upper triangularity is then defined as follows:
:<math> \delta_{upper} = (R_0-R_{upper})/a</math>
:<math> \delta_{upper} = (R_{geo}-R_{upper})/a</math>
and similar for &delta;<sub>lower</sub>.
and similar for &delta;<sub>lower</sub>.
The overall triangularity is defined as the mean of &delta;<sub>upper</sub> and &delta;<sub>lower</sub>.
