Sumário:
  • <p>This paper presents the Manassero Internal Degradation Framework (MIDF) as a deterministic, state-based physical law governing irreversible degradation and failure in material, structural, and physical systems. MIDF introduces an internal integrity variable whose evolution defines system life independently of probabilistic assumptions or population statistics.</p> <p>The framework replaces classical lifetime-based approaches with a unified governing equation (the Manassero Total Equation) that explicitly tracks degradation as a physical state variable. Classical fatigue, creep, fracture, corrosion, and statistical life prediction models—including Basquin’s law, Miner’s rule, Paris crack growth law, Continuum Damage Mechanics, and Weibull statistics—are shown to arise as constrained projections or limiting cases of the MIDF formulation.</p> <p>Time, cycles, and probability are demonstrated to be emergent bookkeeping parameters rather than fundamental drivers of failure. MIDF enables deterministic, component-level life prediction and remaining-life estimation without reliance on empirical fitting or ensemble statistics.</p> <p>This paper serves as the foundational theoretical document of the MIDF corpus and provides the ontological and mathematical basis for companion comparative, analytical, and application-focused works.</p> <p> </p> <p>Author</p> <p>Sebastián Héctor Manassero</p> <p>Independent Researcher</p> <p> </p> <p> Licensing and Use</p> <p> </p> <p>This work is distributed under:</p> <p> </p> <p>Creative Commons Attribution–NonCommercial–NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0)</p> <p> </p> <p>Commercial or derivative use requires explicit authorization.</p> <p> </p> <p>© 2026 Sebastián Héctor Manassero</p> <p> </p> <p>Manassero, S. hector .
