I love a good story problem:

here is the scenario.................

140 pound person wearing boots.................there will be a boot co-
efficient takes in to account whether the sole is soft, hard, and are
there any small stones or metal bits stuck to them.

A cored laminate consisting of: mold-6oz carbon-1/4" thick Divinycell
H-60-6oz carbon.

Now place that person wearing boots on top of that composite laminate,
and have him walk up and down the length of the skin, alternating
between standing/walking and squatting down.

The winner is the one who calculates how many dents are in that foam
core, if any!

The prize?

a rejected lower wing skin that cost a lot of time and money to make.

I understand that, with proper application of a heatgun,
dimples can be transformed into bulges...

See ya, Dave
