Aether Reborn

The YouTube video at https://youtu.be/wZzNNCqCl_Q, titled PROOF OF CONCEPT, is a short presentation-style video from January 13, 2026, outlining the personal scientific thesis detailed below. My work is intended to correct the engineering record from the undisclosed theory in the PCA 1993 directly to Viktor Lewe 1906 and to revive and connect historical ideas about the aether that have been either suppressed or overlooked.

AETHER REBORN: Reynolds’ Granular Medium and Lewe’s Mechanics of the Veil

Hypothesis; the Aether exists as the medium of the propagation of light

Abstract

This thesis links established historical references in elastic and mechanical theory to current engineering practice to suggest that Reinforced Concrete is parasitic to the rotation of planet Earth, measurable as the value of mv², Vis Viva Equation;

It demonstrates the aether as a granular, dilatant medium as described by Osborne Reynolds in his 1903 Sub-mechanics of the Universe.

The ‘grains’ of Reynolds’ medium are governed by dynamic fixations and viscous handovers and these are described in Dr sc.nat Viktor Lewe’s 1906 dissertation.

The viscous veil is thus defined not ontologically but mechanically: the critical boundary between laminar and turbulent flow in aetherial grains, characterized by viscosity Re = 2.16 as the handover threshold where twisting forces induce acceleration of vector potential; surface tension is created through the geometrical assemblage of two orthogonal relative forces – Bending and Ring Tension – and is observable in phenomena like photon slowing.

Existing texts, historical and current practice, are conceptually interconnected by the author’s drawings to reveal suppressed or forgotten insights in engineering contexts, proving the aether’s mass of light, Sm⁴, and its viability in reality; its negative mass moments and balanced twists are the strength of Reinforced Concrete structures. This strength is shown to be parasitic to the natural positive vector potential of the aethereal grains in their H-Bonding network because cement forces the twist of water’s dynamic, pulsing, living light into a random crystalline matrix of fixed points. Vector potential is thus forced negative, with consequences, measurable in speed of light variations (masked by removal of metre std bar in 1983), to gravity value, and to the human psyche in terms of generic behaviour towards low empathy, to narcissism, to rampant materialism, and to the denial of any Ontological solution at all. That the PCA 1993 tables have had negative mass moments deliberately excised is demonstrably true. It is the motives that lie behind this decision that must now be brought into the light for enquiry.

Chapter 1: The Historical Foundation (AEH Love 1892)

A.E.H. Love’s A Treatise on the Mathematical Theory of Elasticity (1892) provides the baseline history of elasticity theory, tracing from Cauchy and Navier, through Euler’s Elastica particularly, and to continuum mechanics. Love’s work provides full history of theory of internal stresses in elastic solids, with new updates on ace-consultancy.uk site linking it to Leonardo da Vinci’s Madrid Codex (1490–1505), where sketches of fluid flow and structural bending (e.g., Codex Vol. I, fol. 126r on water vortices) prefigure Reynolds’ granular media under tension.

Chapter 2: The Granular Aether (Osborne Reynolds 1903)

Osborne Reynolds’ On the Sub-Mechanics of the Universe (1903, Parts 1–3, also referencing Reynolds 1885 contribution to the Science Philosophical Magazine) defines the aether as a granular, dilatant medium filling space. Parts 1 and 2 translate fluid dynamics to ionic (light-body) scales, describing aethereal grains under shear-thickening as the material entities of wave propagation, and gravity as the viscous spacetime boundary effect. The Elastica of the Earth emerges as the boundary where grains transition from laminar alignment to turbulent twist, with viscosity as the entropy limit.

Chapter 3: Vector Potential and Fixed Points (Lewe 1906)

Lewe’s 1906 physics dissertation (Die plötzlichen Befestigungen eines starren Körpers (The sudden fixations of a rigid body) introduces the concept of force over infinitesimal time as ‘sudden fixation’, effectively assuming that the elastic clockwise -ve motion of Time is at Rest, and that simultaneous plastic action can be observed as causal in anticlockwise, +ve vector, using vector potential fixed points as the explanation for equilibrium in stressed continua. This mechanical process between rigid bodies satisfies Reynolds’ granular interactions, where twisting force at boundaries induces acceleration.

Author’s drawing shows yin yang twist pattern created from abb5 and abb14 which are figures from Lewe’s 1915 work, but are illustrations of the concepts from 1906.

Chapter 4: Reinforced Mechanics and Twists (Lewe 1915)

Lewe’s 1915 engineering dissertation (Die Berechnung Durchlaufender Trager und Mehrstieliger Rahmen nach dem zerfahren der zahlenrechtecks (The Application of Number Rectangles to Continuous Beams and Framed Structures)) and contributions to Handbuch für Eisenbetonbau (edited by F. von Emperger) extend the 1906 concepts to reinforced concrete structures. Lewe assumes that the cylinder wall is made from very-thin iron, just enough to give the tank its shape, and then analyses the loading of the contained water. Abb. 5 (side-view rotating wave forces) and Abb. 14 (balanced twist in elastic tension) are illustrations of concepts from 1906, but not credited, and these depict layered laminar continua with bidirectional rotation as the Elastica’s twisting force existing in the unmeasurable instant of infinitesimal time. Combining the two drawings as shown can be seen as illustration of yin yang twisting forces in author’s drawing, where abb 5 is one of a set of 6, and abb 14 is extended to 6 load cases and 6 laminar layers. The 1915 dissertation concludes with a set of coefficient tables but no reference is made to the theory used to create them.

Chapter 5: Coefficient Tables and Negative Mass Moments (PCA 1993)

The Portland Cement Association’s Circular Concrete Tanks Without Prestressing, by Domel & Gogate (1993, 1^st ed 1942, 2^nd 1965) is an industry standard design guide with tables of coefficients for ring tensions, moments, and other forces under various loads and boundary conditions, aligned with ACI 318-89 and ACI 350-89. In this document the user is placed in a position of legal liability for the use of the information therein, but is not told the theory that has been used to build the coefficient tables. However, the link to Lewe 1906 has now been established through the reference chain and through rebuilding the tables from scratch.

Use of the PCA 1993 in engineering is specialised but widespread. For example, it is referenced in Reinforced Concrete Designer’s Handbook by Reynolds and Steedman; the handbook series often cross-references PCA aids for tank-specific coefficients. From forum discussions it is widely seen as a modern compilation/update of older texts like Manning (1967), Gray (1948), and Slater (1939) with little fundamental change in the underlying theory.

The foundational reference of the PCA 93 is to H Carpenter, 1927, and it is in this article we find the link to Lewe, and to an article in the March, 1915 issue of Eisen und Beton. It has not yet been possible to source 1915 issue but in 1923 3^rd edition compilation, Editor Emperger’s  introduction thanks “Dr. Ing. Dr Phil. W. Lewe” for “statics of containers,” linking via Carpenter’s 1927 statics to demonstrate that the likely theory that is pointedly not referenced in the 1993 PCA design guide is that of Dr Viktor Lewe.

To put the issue beyond doubt, it has now been possible to rebuild the tables in the PCA 1993 using the 1906 Dissertation of Dr Lewe and in so doing it has been possible to see where negative mass moments have been excised and replaced.

Table A1 as amended from Lewe, highlights negative mass moments, indicating dynamic pulses in concrete suggesting evidence of living water (aethereal grains) resisting entropy through twisting force. Negative mass moments arise from geometrical acceleration at veil boundaries creating matter and linking back to Lewe’s 1906 force/ infinitesimal time as photon slowing during observation.

Conclusion

By linking Love’s history (updated with Da Vinci), Reynolds’ granular aether, Lewe’s fixation mechanics, and PCA’s tables, the thesis demonstrates the veil as a mechanical boundary (Re = 2.16 viscosity) where twisting force creates observable reality. All references from ace-consultancy.uk confirm the chain, reviving suppressed truths in engineering. The aether exists—not as ether, but as granular continuum pulsing with life.
