# Edge Angle Force Calculator AI Agent Connect

> Edge Angle Force Calculator provides the physics math needed to analyze ski and snowboard performance. Your AI client uses this MCP to calculate total edge force, pressure distribution across the contact area, and remaining grip margins based on speed, turn radius, and snow conditions.

## Description

You can use this MCP to bring mechanical engineering precision to your winter sports analysis. Instead of guessing how a turn feels, your agent can calculate the exact physics behind the maneuver. It handles the heavy lifting of determining how much force is actually hitting the edge and how that pressure spreads across the snow. 

Whether you are modeling equipment performance or analyzing turn stability on ice versus soft snow, this MCP gives your AI client the data it needs. It looks at variables like rider weight, velocity, and edge angle to output real-time dynamics. You can check if a specific turn radius will result in a loss of grip or if the pressure distribution is optimized for the current surface conditions. It turns raw movement data into actionable mechanical insights.

## Tools

### calculate_edge_hold_margin
This tool evaluates turn stability by calculating how much grip capacity remains before the edge slips.

### get_pressure_distribution
This tool determines how force spreads across the specific contact area of the edge.

### get_total_edge_force
This tool calculates the total magnitude of force acting on the equipment edge.

### get_turning_dynamics_summary
This tool provides a high-level overview of the physics involved in the current maneuver.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the total force for a 75kg rider going 10m/s with a 15m turn radius and a 30 degree edge angle.
```

**Response:** 
```
The total force acting on the edge is 525.4 Newtons, consisting of a centripetal component and a gravitational component.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the pressure distribution for a 500N force on ice with a 10cm contact length and 25 degree edge angle?
```

**Response:** 
```
The pressure is 50.0 N/cm, with a high contact area effect due to the ice surface.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Give me a summary of the dynamics for a 80kg rider at 12m/s, 20m radius, 35 degree angle on soft snow.
```

**Response:** 
```
The maneuver has a force magnitude of 612.5 N, a medium pressure intensity, and a stable rating.
```

## Capabilities

### Force Calculation
Your agent calculates the total magnitude of force applied to the ski or snowboard edge.
