Summary
DescriptionAllometric Law of Body Mass vs Cruising Speed in Constructal Theory.svg |
English: The proportionality between the optimal cruising speed for flying bodies (insects, birds, airplanes) and body mass in kg raised to the is an allometric law predicted by Konstruktalteori:
Español: La proporcionalidad entre la velocidad óptima de crucero para los cuerpos voladores (insectos, aves, aviones) y el cuerpo de masa en kg planteadas a la es una ley alométrica predicha por Konstruktalteori:
Svenska: Proportionaliteten mellan den optimala marschfarten för flygande kroppar (insekter, fåglar, flygplan) och kroppsmassa i kg upphöjt till är en allometrisk lag förutsagd av Konstruktalteori:
