Abstract
The present invention relates to a flange that includes a base region, a first raised region, a second raised region, a first sloped region between the base region and the first raised region, and a second sloped region between the base region and the second raised regions, wherein the first and second sloped regions extend through a gap region between the first and second raised regions, and wherein the first and second sloped regions define multiple concave and convex regions in multiple planes of the flange so as to reduce stress within the flange.
