The profile of the linearly optimized specific case called “mich8”, showing the discretization used in the BIGBOSOR4 model

Fig. 2c The profile of the linearly optimized specific case called “mich8”, showing the discretization used in the BIGBOSOR4 model and showing where additional “smoothing” segments have automatically been inserted by GENOPT/BIGBOSOR4 in order to eliminate “corners” (discontinuities of meridional slope) between major segments. In this figure the radial coordinate has been s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d better to show the discretization.
