Are adult physiques geometrically similar? The dangers of allometric scaling using body mass power laws. [PDF]
, 2004 Human physique classification by somatotype assumes that adult humans are geometric similar to each other. However, this assumption has yet to be adequately tested in athletic and nonexercising human populations.

Allometric scaling and age-related differences in change of direction speed performances of young soccer players [PDF]
, 2016 Purpose: The purposes of this study were to compare change of direction speed (CODS) performances between different age categories (i.e., U-10, U-12, U-13, and U-18) and to develop allometric exponents for scaling this quality.

The scaling of diving time budgets : insights from an optimality approach [PDF]
, 2014 The authors acknowledge the Natural Environment Research Council for support with this work (grant NER/A/S/2003/00616).Simple scaling arguments suggest that, among air-breathing divers, dive duration should scale approximately with mass to the one-third ...

High-Throughput Tissue Bioenergetics Analysis Reveals Identical Metabolic Allometric Scaling for Teleost Hearts and Whole Organisms. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Organismal metabolic rate, a fundamental metric in biology, demonstrates an allometric scaling relationship with body size. Fractal-like vascular distribution networks of biological systems are proposed to underlie metabolic rate allometric scaling laws ...
