Physical models are widely used by designers and their use is promoted as aneffective design tool by industry and government agencies. However, very little is known aboutthe cognitive effects of physical models in the design process. The available guidelines areconflicting. Some researchers argue for the frequent implementation of physical models; othersobserve
