1536687 Making a model to simulate reactions to real forces SOC GENERALE DE CONSTRUCTIONS ELECTRIQUES ET MECANIQUES ALSTHOM 30 Oct 1975 [4 Nov 1974] 45069/75 Heading G1S A method of producing a scale model of a structure comprising at least one elongate member comprises forming the or each member of the model from a core which simulates the flexural rigidity (E.I.) of the real structure and covering the core with a material which simulates the external configuration of the real structure and also its mass distribution. In Fig. 4 the core 8 is surrounded by covering elements 7 which contact the core only at small surfaces 6 so as not to impart rigidity to the core, and other forms of covering methods are shown and described.
