• Abstract:
  The purpose of this document is to consider at the beginning of the Subway Environmental Research Project, the methodology for relating the experimental scale modeling data to full-scale predictions. The similitude laws being developed at CIT/JPL are considered in terms of their application to the geometrically-scaled experiments to be run at DSI-AT. A procedure for scaling the DSI - AT data at full-scale is discussed and examples are given.
