Dual Purpose of Demonstration Research
Demonstrate physical impacts of technologies in specific applications.
The physical question is separable from the economic question.• We can test and observe the physical performance.
• Economic performance is often not directly observable,but is estimable through analysis of the physical performance.
Does it work?
Is it worth doing?
Estimate economic viability of the demonstrated applications.

Hypotheses: Linking Cause and Effect
A hypothesis makes a statement that links cause and effect.
“If _____ occurs, the system acts to cause _____.”condition outcome
“If _____ occurs, the system acts to cause _____.”condition outcome
A causal chain can be expressed as a testable hypothesis:
