The Elastic Equilibrium Bubble: A Proposed Physical Mechanism for Inertial-Frame Equivalence and the Michelson-Morley Null Result

The principle of Galilean relativity — that no experiment can distinguish rest from uniform motion — is conventionally stated as a fundamental axiom. This paper proposes, within the Elastic Three-Dimensional Lattice (RTE) framework, a candidate physical mechanism: when a body mov...

Bifasic Time and Gravitational Time Dilation: Consistency with Three Experimental Measurements and a Strong-Field Divergence

The Elastic Three-Dimensional Lattice (RTE) model proposes that time is not a continuous flow but a sequence of discrete bifasic cycles — absorption and release phases of the elastic lattice. Where elastic tension K̃(r) is higher (near massive objects), each cycle takes longer to...
