Regime
Re 10³ to 2·10⁵ — laminar separation, wide wake
Every figure drawn under this hypothesis — 33 of them — with the essay each one belongs to and the generator that drew it.
33 figure placements state this regime. The strip along the foot of every figure names two things — the model that produced it and the regime it holds in — and this listing is read back out of the finished drawing rather than from what produced it.
