I HAVE often been impressed by the scanty attention paid even by original workers in physics to the great principle of similitude. It happens not infrequently that results in the form of “laws” are ...

Scaling laws and similitude methods constitute a fundamental framework in structural dynamics, enabling the accurate prediction of full-scale behaviour from reduced-scale models. By establishing ...

Earthquakes and other stressors on buildings pose a threat to their structural integrity that endangers human life. It is effective to be able to calculate the behavior of buildings and test with ...
