Lateral CG exactly on the limit rejected · case 03
A load that places the lateral CG exactly at the limit is reported LAT.
Case contract
Input {'items':[[lb, longitudinal arm, lateral arm]] (first item basic empty weight; lateral right positive),'long_env':[fwd,aft],'lat_limit':L}. Longitudinal CG must be within inclusive limits; |lateral CG| <= L. Status 'BOTH','LONG','LAT' or 'OK'. Return [long CG r2, signed lateral CG r2, status].
Why this case matters
Helicopters have a lateral CG limit as well as a longitudinal one; lateral arms are signed and all weight, including centerline weight, dilutes the lateral offset.
One recorded failure
Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
| Boundary fixture | Actual | Expected | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| exactly on lateral limit | [110.0, 3.0, "LAT"] | [110.0, 3.0, "OK"] | Failed |
