I'm not good with The Wayback Machine, so somebody else can get the archive.org links, for *both* external-links, fixed. the Wayback machine has NO archive of all the equations, in any of its snapshots ( every single snapshot is missing most of its equation-images ), so the information has apparently been lost. https://web.archive.org/web/20170709175225/https://soliton.ae.gatech.edu/labs/windtunl/classes/unstaero/kussner...
