Norwegian Future Skate technique project
Several years ago the Norwegian ski team started a special project to find
the optimal skating technique. First they created the world's most powerful super-computer specialized for biomechanical calculations. So powerful it needs four other super-computers just to handle its inputs and outputs. Next they programmed it with every parameter and input needed for ski skating. They started it running, and let it calculate and optimize, and automatically generate new starting solution-vectors. And calculate and optimize on those. They checked the results every three months, then fed it more data. Then let it generate more starting solution-vectors, and calculate and optimize some more. Finally this super-computer transmitted the optimal technique solution to the output super-computer. At last the Norwegian ski researchers could read the answer. But a spy in Sweden penetrated the system and stole the secret. Then in a great action of public service, he put the secret up on the Web -- the true answer from this Norwegian skate technique project: http://avari182.mt.luth.se/Technic/Alsgard1.mpg Ken |
