But then it is not a model, and the benefits of modeling (exploration
before building the real cat) are lost.

Hi Scott,

No worries. I guess we'll just have to agree to differ. We couldn't get
a good correlation with Hammerstadt using measured microscopic
parameters, which suggest to me at least that any macroscopic fit is
fortuitous.

"The best model for a cat is a cat. Preferably the same cat."

Cheers,

Not ganging up on you at all.  Just ganging up on the fact that the 
"Intel/Huray" approach of performing this level of microscopic detailed 
modeling is gross overkill.   I'd certainly love to see good complex 
correlation of both magnitude and phase for the Huray model in a 
simulator.  But, it's just not necessary, having done hundreds of models

correlated with measurements using the Djordjevic-Sarkar model combined 
with the Hammerstadt-Jensen model (or other macroscopic model).
