Great article on ball reaction
« on: November 03, 2008, 02:13:14 PM »

This is a very technical article i found on ball reaction and core physics. It's a little lengthy and dry, but i found it interesting.

Would be very interesting if I liked physics and understood any of it lmao.

Good post though, im sure somebody will come along to decipher it in a little bit.

A little bit overkill, still nice to see that someone will put down the effort into making something like that.

It is a great article and worth reading to understand what actually happens on the lanes. Yes, a bit dry, but still comprehensive.

Besides, I love the "Black MoRich Test Ball"... 0.043" asym. diff.!

Given Nick now works for Global, I don't think he will finish the article, but I would love for someone to complete it.



Agreed, this is the kind of technical research I would like to see a lot more of. It may not mean a whole lot to most people, but to the people who is does concern there is just not enough of this kind of material.
