2. Scaling law modeling
2.1 General principle
Scaling laws study the relative effects of a change in geometric dimensions on the characteristics of a component compared to a known reference component.
This article uses the notation proposed by M. Jufer , where the relative evolution of a quantity x* is calculated using the following relationship:
