Mechanical similarity
text:
In classical mechanics, a branch overlapping in physics and applied mathematics, mechanical similarity occurs when the potential energy is a homogeneous function of the positions of the particles, with the result that the trajectories of the particles in the system are geometrically similar paths, differing in size but retaining shape. Consider a system of any number of particles and assume that the interaction energy between any pair of particles has the form where r is the distance between the
