A fun fact is that even in humble fracture mechanics one gets singularities at the crack tip using standard elasticity theory. A bunch of funny mathematics is needed to get around this. And, of course, the reality is that at a certain point you hit the atomic level so the tip is always 'blunted' at least one atoms length.

- GTP 3y agoTIL that drills are excellent matematicians
