Structural engineering scale models can use different approaches to satisfy the similitude requirements of scale model fabrication and testing.
2.
For structural engineering scale models, it is important for several specific quantities to be scaled according to the theory of similitude.

More practical examples of the failure of classical mechanics on an engineering scale are conduction by quantum tunneling in tunnel diodes and very narrow transistor gates in integrated circuits.

Hutchinson s thesis was on the theory of polycrystalline plasticity, an early effort to characterize the nonlinear plastic behavior of structural metals at the engineering scale based on the microscopic behavior of the single crystal grains comprising the polycrystal.

After validating the technology at lab scale and beginning engineering scale-up, the company unveiled the first product, a process for making MEG, in March 2014 and subsequently won significant industry recognition including the CCEMC Grand Challenge, the CleanTech 100 Rising Star of the Year, and a # 1 ranking in Biofuels Digest s 40 Hottest Smaller Companies in the Advanced Bioeconomy.
