Notes:
This paper is concerned with the geometrical similarity of heat conduction-elastioplasticstructural problems. When the dimensions of a structure are geometrically scaled down/up, thesimilarity relations for both isolated heat conduction and elastoplastic structural problems arederived. For cases of thermo-structural coupled, it is concluded that heat conduction-staticelastoplastic problems can be geometrically similarly scaled down/up and a set of similarityrelations are drawn accordingly. As examples, a full-, half- and quarter-scale unilaterally-tensionedplate and internally-pressured cylindrical shell irradiated by a laser pulse are numerically analysedand the numerical results have confirmed this conclusion. However, heat conduction-dynamicelastoplastic problems are found not to comply compatibly with the geometrically similar scaling
