yeah .. we call those fatigue fractures.. interesting u chose exactly that sort of fracture and that u are aware of one method to detect such micro fracture..
Glad u had a great time... am not jealous whatsoever; just a tad green
I, proudly, can say that I've designed the guidiance & navigation system of one such thingy (10% of the size of the predator shown here and unlike it, its a completely autonomous system) ...
forget about the blondes etc etc .. just follow your 'dowsing stick' and the game is done. It'll tell ya where it wanna park by itself. Take my advice son. You won't regret it!
aside: lemme ask .. don't u think that 10,000 instead of 10.000 would be less confusing? Kind of, we (and you) already use the period to delimate fractional values..
for instance, if you wanna write number 10 as a floating point number to 3 dps, you'd have to write 10.000 which is identical to your 10,000 (which u write as 10.000)
therefore, by the german/italian convention, a floating point 10 to 3 dps is writen just like 10,000 .. I find that very confusing.. our (well .. the brit's actually ) convention is betta indeed IMO.
