Overview

We consider the cases of an effective river of mass flow or matter flow for which the heat flux vector is non-zero and the viscous shear is zero. We also consider non-zero fluid pressure as well as non-zero viscous shear. For purposes of modeling, we will first consider a linear array of solid rotating cylindrical disks for which each disk is composed of a form of shadow matter that only interacts with the gravitation of the adjacent disks that overlap in space. Here, we will assume that there is systemic pressure in that the rotating disks have rotational velocities such that the self-induced gravitational attractive pressures of the disks are not cancelled out as a result of centripetal acceleration. We further assume a similar linear array of disks rotating in the opposite direction but where there is a non-overlapped portion which essentially mimics a linear unidirectional massive river flow. For this scenario all disks are assumed to have the same mass, velocity of rotation, shape, size, and density where the density is assumed to be radially and circumferentially constant. Furthermore, the disks for one of the array for which the array over-extends the other array are assumed to each have a non-zero temperature or heat content and a collective spin pattern such that an effective temperature of the simulated river increases by virtue of the cyclical heating and cooling of the individual disk temperatures. This way, the superposition of the disks results in the effective propagation of a warm front or a cool front along the length of the array. We further consider scenarios for which the disk axes of rotation oscillate along the radial coordinate in the two dimensions orthogonal to the axis of rotations. However, in cases where the viscous shear tensor is zero, we will assume that the axial oscillations orthogonal to the rotors' axes of rotation occur in such a manner that the shear tensor remains equal to zero on macroscopic space and time scales. We go still further to sonsider scenarios for which the disks axes of rotation can move along the dimension parallel to the axes of rotation. However, in cases where the viscous shear tensor is zero, we will assume that the axial oscillations parallel to the rotors' axes of rotation occur in such a manner that the shear tensor remains equal to zero on macroscopic space and time scales. In cases where the viscous shear tensor is non-zero, then parallel axial oscillations may be chosen to augment or enhance the shear tensor. Now, how does all this concern the future of our civilization. Well, for one, such a simulated space-time-mass-energy river may be applicable to methods of superluminal travel. For example, a spacecraft traveling down such river might have a velocity of its relative velocity with respect to the river added to the effective river current velocity. It is plausible that the river velocity may be modulated to have an arbitrary group velocity and phase velocity thereby enabling effectively arbitrarily great super-luminal river currents with respect to the background. The various methods contemplated herein and in the previous two volumes in this continuing series may be applicable as appropriate to mechanisms for configuring space-time or space-time-mass-energy warping or other general relativistic methods.
