Universal Sheet Tension (UST): A Complete Mechanical Reconstruction of Physical Laws

This synthesis paper provides the definitive consolidated framework for the Universal Sheet Tension (UST) Model. It unifies the eight specialized proofs previously published, providing a single deterministic explanation for the Vacuum Catastrophe, the Hubble Tension, the Proton Radius Puzzle, and the derivation of fundamental constants (G, α, c) as material material yield points. By replacing field theory with the mechanics of a 1D Stochastic String Network and 2D manifold residues, the UST model offers a complete, falsifiable alternative to the Standard Model.
