From continuum mechanics to general relativity [PDF]

, 2014
Using ideas from continuum mechanics we construct a theory of gravity. We show that this theory is equivalent to Einstein's theory of general relativity; it is also a much faster way of reaching general relativity than the conventional route.

The Universal Theory for Multiscale Modelling of Infectious Disease Dynamics

Mathematics, 2023
The replication-transmission relativity theory, currently used to inform the development of multiscale models of infectious disease dynamics, needs a revision and extension to accommodate new basic science and clinical information about infectious ...

Wittgenstein's Thought Experiments and Relativity Theory [PDF]

, 2019
In this paper, I discuss the similarity between Wittgenstein’s use of thought experiments and Relativity Theory. I begin with introducing Wittgenstein’s idea of “thought experiments” and a tentative classification of different kinds of thought ...

God, Time, and the Implicate Order Theory

TheoLogica, 2021
In this article, the God’s relationship to time is viewed from the perspective of modern physics. The purpose is to examine new perspectives by introducing a theory of time that has been unexplored in contemporary theology.

Scattering of fermions in the Yukawa theory coupled to unimodular gravity

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2018
We compute the lowest order gravitational UV divergent radiative corrections to the S matrix element of the $$fermion + fermion\rightarrow fermion + fermion$$ fermion+fermion→fermion+fermion scattering process in the massive Yukawa theory, coupled either
