   Consequently, the scale factor for the mass (M) and displacement is the same as that for the volumes, i.e.: S (M) = S 3 (L) = 25 3 = 15 625 Similitude of forces (F): If the external forces on the model are in similitude, like the shapes, masses and inertia, the model's movement will be in similitude. It can thus be shown that the forces (F ...
