Derivation of Maxwell's equations based on a continuum mechanical model of vacuum and a singularity model of electric charges.(Report)

The main purpose of this paper is to seek a mechanical interpretation of electromagnetic phenomena. We suppose that vacuum is filled with a kind of continuously distributed material which may be called [OMEGA](1) substratum. Further, we speculate that the [OMEGA](1) substratum might behave like a fluid with respect to translational motion of large bodies through it, but would still posses elasticity to produce small transverse vibrations. Thus, we propose a visco-elastic constitutive relation of the [OMEGA](1) substratum. Further-more, we speculate that electric charges are ...
