Similarity and model designing in a nonscalar description of an examined process

Abstract

The problem of similarity and designing of a physical model of an examined process is considered on the basis of generalizations of Theorem π. It is shown that in cases of nonscalar description the similar model of a process could be designed on the basis of a special version of Theorem π. Similarity scales can be obtained only for the vector modulus, or for the components of vectors and tensors when special experimental conditions (described in this paper) are fulfilled.
