isogrid structures
part of a table of symbols and units of measurement for the component parts of an isogrid type structure including stiffeners, stiffener webs, pockets and neouds (junctions?) It is difficult to provide a lot of context due to the nature of the document (patent application) but further on in the text there is reference to the radii of both filets and noeuds ... I don't even have a wrong tree to bark up on this one! Any ideas welcome.

Node/join filet radius
This would be a lot easier to explain with a picture!
Where two straight members of a structure meet, a sharp corner is formed at the inside edge of the join. This sharp corner tends to act as a focal point for stress if tyhe structure is subject to a bending load. To spread the stress out, the sharp corner is "smoothed" out with a curved part that is known as a filet. This curve has a radius (normally a minimum radius).

If you can't draw a picture, borrow somebody else's!

There's several nice pictures of a railway freight car axle that failed due to an incorrect fillet radius.
And yes, fillet has two l's!
