Summary:

As a result of the previous R&D and recent scientific work from this project several useful issues came out, e.g. a new classification of finely dispersed systems, a new constitutive model of liquids and a theory of electroviscoelasticity. Considering a new classification of finely dispersed systems some of the implications and/or applications of, both, developed models and theory may be presented as the first and the second philosophical breakpoints.

The first philosophical breakpoint

A theory of electroviscoelasticity using fractional approach constitutes a new interdisciplinary approach to colloid and interface science. Hence, 1-more degrees of freedom are in the model, 2-memory storage considerations and hereditary properties are included in the model, and 3-history impact to the present and future is in the game!

This theory and models discussed may facilitate the understanding of e.g. entrainment problems in solvent extraction, very developed interfaces in colloid and interface science, chemical and biological sensors, electro-analytical methods, biology/biomedicine (hematology, genetics, electroneurophysiology).

Furthermore, both, the model and theory may be implemented in studies of structure; interface barriers/symmetries – surface (bilipid membrane cells, free bubbles of surfactants, Langmuir Blodget films), - line (genes, liquid crystals, microtubules), - point (fullerenes, micro-emulsions) and – overall (dry foams, polymer elastic and rigid foams).

The second philosophical breakpoint

Also, the further evaluation of the idea related to the entity understood as an energetic ellipsoid, based on the model of electron following Maxwell-Dirac Isomorphism MDI, seems to be sensible. Such approach and consequent knowledge may bi implemented in the studies of, e.g. ionics, spintronics, fractional-quantum Hall effect-fluids, decoherence sensitivity, quantum computation, entities/quantum particles entanglement.
