Energy Filament Theory (EFT) Z04: Field and Force - Gradient Settlement (Tension Slope / Texture Slope)

This record contains the public-edition manuscripts for EFT-Z04 (Chinese and English PDFs). Z04 specifies EFT’s working conventions for field and force: a field is defined as a sea-state map of the Sea-State Quartet (Density, Tension, Texture, Cadence), and a force is defined as Gradient Settlement (accelerated motion as cost-minimizing rewriting along gradients). Z04 further compresses gravity-like and electromagnetic-like appearances into one grammar with two slopes: gravity-like guidance mainly reads the Tension Slope (terrain), while EM-like guidance mainly reads the Texture Slope (roads). The module also clarifies why field lines and potentials should be treated as map symbols rather than physical strings, and it uses engineering cases (capacitors, inductors, antennas) to motivate the idea that energy can reside in field configurations.
