Allometric engineering is the process of experimentally shifting the scaling relationships, for body size or shape, in a population of organisms. More specifically, the process of experimentally breaking the tight covariance evident among component traits of a complex phenotype by altering the variance of one trait relative to another.
Allometric scaling is any change that deviates from isometry. A classic example discussed by Galileo in his Dialogues Concerning Two New Sciences is the skeleton of mammals. The skeletal structure becomes much stronger and more robust relative to the size of the body as the body size increases. [ 13 ]
Examples of algorithms for this task include New Edge-Directed Interpolation (NEDI), [1] [2] Edge-Guided Image Interpolation (EGGI), [3] Iterative Curvature-Based Interpolation (ICBI), [citation needed] and Directional Cubic Convolution Interpolation (DCCI). [4] A study found that DCCI had the best scores in PSNR and SSIM on a series of test ...
Scaling of Navier–Stokes equation refers to the process of selecting the proper spatial scales – for a certain type of flow – to be used in the non-dimensionalization of the equation. Since the resulting equations need to be dimensionless, a suitable combination of parameters and constants of the equations and flow (domain ...

The scaling is uniform if and only if the scaling factors are equal (v x = v y = v z). If all except one of the scale factors are equal to 1, we have directional scaling. In the case where v x = v y = v z = k, scaling increases the area of any surface by a factor of k 2 and the volume of any solid object by a factor of k 3.
