Exit Domain Scaling Relationships

Scaling relationships provide an important bridge between geometry and physics.

The central question is whether the dimensions of the candidate exit domain remain compatible with the dimensions of the proposed entrance domain and midpoint domain.

Relative Scaling

The framework emphasizes proportional relationships rather than isolated measurements.

Useful comparisons include:

1. exit-domain to entrance-domain ratios;
2. exit-domain to midpoint-domain ratios;
3. domain-to-planet ratios;
4. depth-to-width relationships.

Constraint Windows

Scaling relationships reduce model freedom by eliminating geometries that cannot coexist within the same reconstruction framework.

As additional constraints are added, permissible solution space decreases.
