Similitude theory allows engineers, through a set of tools known as similitude methods, to
establish the necessary conditions to design a scaled (up or down) model of a full-scale …

Similitude theory is a branch of engineering science concerned with establishing the
necessary and sufficient conditions of similarity among phenomena, and has been applied …

Similitude theory is widely used to predict the structural responses of the full-size prototype
through scaled models and is categorized into complete and partial similitude according to …

Similitude theory can be utilized to perform scaled experiments and facilitate the
understanding of physical behaviors of large structures. However, the prediction accuracy in …

As structures are built taller and more slender, their response becomes increasingly
sensitive to dynamic loads that are induced by the buildings' higher‐frequency vibration …

Scaling laws are used to scale-up calculation or measurement results from a prototype
structure to those of an original structure or vice versa. The scaling laws of mechanical …

In practical engineering, gravitational acceleration cannot be scaled (λ g= 1), which is not
considered in the existing similitude studies of rotor systems. In this paper, a restriction in …

Similitude theory is used to establish the necessary conditions between the enlarged or
reduced model and the original structure, and has been widely applied to vibration and …

Similitude theory provides the necessary conditions to predict the structural responses of the
full-scale prototype through the scaled model, and is widely used in full-scale experiments of …

For FG porous plates under thermal environment, the complexity of porosity leads to the
inaccuracy of theoretical analysis, so it is important to establish dynamic similitude to guide …
