profile relevant/profile critical Explanation: Here we are dealing with a testing specification for "checking the profile critical points of the locomotive with reference to kinetic profile" (kinetic outline). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 27 mins (2008-01-17 13:13:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- These points are relevant or critical to the profile. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2008-01-17 14:10:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I would rather say that in English we talk of kinetic energy and I personally consider kinematic as influence of another language. I just now checked in Google kinematic has 1,500,000 its whereas kinetic has 16,400,000 hits. |
