"Yes, of course.

"That's right."
It was almost as Jin had predicted. The Nordic Federation is well educated, and in terms of general education, it far surpasses the countries of the Laurentian Continent.
That is, beyond that.

Weight is material and structure, propulsion is efficiency and power.

The question and answer session so far had raised quite a few questions and hints for their solutions, so the questions tended to become more technical the later they were asked, but Jin didn't expect this.
"First of all, general remarks. Stiffness is important, but too much stiffness makes it brittle. Also, when the load exceeds the limit, it tends to be destroyed at once. I think that is dangerous.

Hard things break. Soft things bend. It is difficult to find this balance, and it is the engineer's skill to determine it," Jin said.
"......"
"One way to prevent this is to provide adequate elasticity and toughness, or to use composite materials. Also, the strength will vary depending on the structure."

He refers to light and strong structures such as trusses and honeycomb structures.
"Then there are the properties. Something hard and brittle is weak in tension and bending, but strong in compression.
Concrete is a good example of this, and the design includes a lot of reinforcing steel bars in the areas where tensile load is applied.

This concludes the questions from the 10 participating teams.
This shows that they are all technical clans.
Moreover, most of them are related to Marikka, i.e., disciples, grand-disciples, or colleagues.
