CST–FTAMCS Unified Engine Simulation v8 – Thin-Film Lattice Cone

Phase Presets (Concept Roadmap)

Phase 1–5 mirror your real construction path:
1) FTAMCS proof → 2) CST timing → 3) cone chamber design → 4) engine module → 5) engine array.

Engine Components & Status

FTAMCS microscopic thrust
Thin-film asymmetric collapse (inside spacecraft)
CST resonance + timing
Keeps collapse events phase-locked in time
Vacuum cone geometry
Internal reaction cone + clean vacuum (no exhaust)
Real propulsion engine
All components integrated (simulation only)
Concept Only
Readiness
Microscopic thrust + CST + vacuum cone: simulated only, FTAMCS still needs lab validation.
Momentum & Reaction
Thrust is generated inside the spacecraft cone. Momentum is conserved: the reaction goes into the cone wall / internal ring and structure, not exhaust. CST ensures thrust vectors add instead of cancelling, and the vacuum chamber keeps resonance clean (no air losses). This gives true mechanical thrust you can test and falsify in both lab rigs and space.

Microscopic Source & FTAMCS Scaling

You can override theory and type any base thrust per tile, or enable FTAMCS scaling to compute it from thin-film lattice parameters. Baseline AFM target is 20 ± 10 nN per CuBr sample.
0 = symmetric (near-zero thrust), 1 = edge/corner asymmetry.
Higher β keeps more memory, reduces thrust efficiency.
Prediction: Thrust ∝ h1.5
Prediction: Thrust ∝ d−0.5
Prediction: Thrust ∝ P0.8
Approx linear multi-layer coupling (Phase III).
Thin-Film Falsifiable Prediction
Modeled FTAMCS thrust per tile: 20.0 nN
This is a direct prediction you can confirm or kill using AFM and vacuum rigs.

Thin-Film Lattice Mode (CuBr AFM Test)

Longer coherence → slightly higher thrust.
Higher information flow amplifies effective thrust.
AFM Band Check
Modeled thin-film thrust per tile/sample: 20.0 nN
Inside 20 ± 10 nN band (good AFM test window).
Falsifiable predictions: adjust h, d, P, asymmetry, Lc, and information rate to see how the AFM-level thrust responds. The band check is tied to the 20 ± 10 nN target.

Environment Mode & Testability

Environment Explanation
Space mode: any non-zero internal thrust produces cumulative Δv in vacuum. Best place to prove true propulsion from FTAMCS thin films, independent of gravity.
Earth mode is for AFM, torsion balances, and near-surface vehicles (rockets / fighters). Space mode is for satellites and spacecraft where micro-thrust can accumulate into real Δv.

Resonance & CST Control

Natural lattice resonance f₀ ≈ 0.49 (dimensionless).
0 = random timing, 1 = perfect CST lock. Poor sync wastes thrust as internal vibration.
f₀ (natural): 0.49
Q (quality factor): 1.07
Resonance gain: 10.0 ×
Locked
When unlocked, thrust direction wanders inside the ship and partially cancels.
How well the cone geometry converts microscopic impulses into usable translation.
0 = almost all impulse spins internal mass; 1 = almost all impulse couples to COM.
Used to compute acceleration and Δv from effective internal thrust (no propellant).
Direction of the internal thrust vector in the spacecraft frame (0° = along cone axis).

Engine Output (Continuous Internal Thrust)

Flight mode: STANDBY – internal thin-film thrust is modeled, visuals at baseline.
Effective thrust to COM: – nN
Effective thrust to COM: – µN
Effective thrust to COM: – mN
Spacecraft / vehicle acceleration: – mm/s²
Net accel vs gravity (Earth mode): – mm/s²
Δv per hour: – m/s per hour
Total Δv (for selected time): – m/s
Thrust vector components: – N along X/Y in spacecraft frame
Interpretation
Adjust presets and sliders to see how FTAMCS thin-film scaling, CST resonance, vacuum cone geometry, corridor lock and reaction coupling scale AFM-level thrust into a continuous internal engine without violating momentum conservation.
FTAMCS Source Microscopic thrust only.
CST Control Resonance + timing active.
Vacuum Geometry Reaction cone coupled to Δv (no exhaust).
Exports time, thrust, acceleration, Δv (engine running internally, momentum conserved in the cone).

Internal Cone Engine (Thin-Film Lattice)

CST Corridor Active
Internal thin-film thrust is routed along the cone axis; the tip glow and plume show how strongly the engine is breathing at the current settings.

CST Corridor & Internal Reaction

CST Corridor Active

FTAMCS thin-film tiles line the interior of the cone. Asymmetric torsion & coherence collapse generate microscopic thrust vectors inside; CST timing keeps them phase-locked, so the net thrust emerges coherently out of the cone tip, while reaction is absorbed by the internal structure and ring. In space, any non-zero thrust changes velocity; on Earth, it must overcome gravity and drag to move a rocket or fighter-style vehicle.

Construction Phases (Conceptual)

Phase 1 — FTAMCS proof
CuBr thin-film AFM test to detect ~20 ± 10 nN thrust from asymmetric collapses.
Phase 2 — CST timing electronics
Lock collapse events to CST and drive resonance to create sustained internal thrust.
Phase 3 — CST–FTAMCS vacuum cone
Cone shape, reaction ring, collapse geometry, navigation vector control.
Phase 4 — Engine module
Single milli-newton range CST–FTAMCS lattice-cone propulsion unit.
Phase 5 — Engine array
Multiple modules combined into a spacecraft/vehicle propulsion system (internal thrust, no exhaust, momentum conserved).

Internal Engine Strip (Thrust Display)

Shows relative internal thrust level. In STANDBY, the strip has a slow breathing glow. In START mode, it brightens and pulses faster, matching the cone tip.
