[PSUBS-MAILIST] Non-uniform cone

[Joe Perkel via Personal_Submersibles]

After reading ABS, I think you can do this, but how does one calculate a non-uniform but still developable cone transition for 250' ?

Why you ask? Trying to get the forward observer as forward as possible while keeping within a tapering and enclosed bow shape. Looks like viewing would have to be torpedo tube like ala "Kraka".

Cone is to left, unrolled surface to right.
