Can you give us some context please? Are you referring to COP of an airfoil, a ship's hull, a balance platform, a footer, a rocket, etc, etc, etc?

I strongly feel he is from a class that believes in bringing a steam/air main into a header/distributor and then taking it back again both right & left of the header. So the inlet becomes a centre of pressure because it serves even distribution of pressure.

Considering this is his is 1st. question therefore, he had to ask something. Lets be patient and wait for his reply.

We don't know what he means. He's a Brigadoon poster - asks a question, then fades into the fog for a hundred years.
