34. This condition can be satisfied even for beams with salient edges, since in practice the radius of curvature of such edges is never zero.

37. The convention adopted for the Reynolds number is in line with Ref. 36. We point out that the Reynolds number is often associated with the nonlinear convective inertial term of the Navier Stokes equation. This latter convention has not been adopted here.
