A Master Conceptual Guide to the Viscoelastic Vacuum
收藏资源简介：
Abstract This master conceptual guide synthesizes the complete architectural framework of the Dynamic Substrate Theory (DST), a novel paradigm that replaces the traditional abstraction of empty geometric spacetime with a physical, memory-endowed viscoelastic continuum governed by Maxwell-Oldroyd-B rheology. Spanning from subatomic topological excitations and electromagnetic shear waves to large-scale cosmological phenomena—such as dark matter strain halos, background elastic tension as dark energy, and volumetric relaxation ("cosmic breathing")—this white paper unifies nine foundational preprints registered on Zenodo. By leveraging rigorous continuum mechanics and intuitive fluid-dynamic analogies, DST provides a robust mechanical foundation for modern physics without relying on abstract geometric curvature or unobserved exotic entities.
