Robert is an independent researcher, amongst other things. He is a perpetual student and has been actively pursuing the study of physics for over 15 years. Professionally he has a background in engineering and has worked in technology also over 15 years developing systems for multiple industries. Personally, Robert enjoys open debate where one of his personal goals is to challenge and demonstrate different perspectives to promote critical thinking. He believes that a complete theory of everything physical will never truly be achieved, and if one is that it should be continually questioned and reanalyzed in order to find a better theory. He also believes that certain theories have diverged from well founded intentions into extreme, contextually imaginary mathematics and are unjustly popularized. He is an advocate for world peace through free universal education. He lives by a strict code of relative ethics defined by the Golden Rule. 
'''Robert L. DeMelo''' (born December 21, 1975) is a Canadian independent researcher, technology consultant and software developer known for his self-developed framework of fractal scale cosmology, which proposes that macroscopic (stellar and planetary) systems and quantum (atomic) systems are self-similar structures related by a fixed scale factor. Based in Toronto, Ontario, he leads the GPRA (General Principles of Reality Architecture) Project and has published books and papers on his theory of gravitation, mass–energy geometry and grand unification.


My current research is in fractal scaling, discrete, self-similar cosmology and dynamics using an explicit framework I've slowly evolved based on my simply derived scale factor S between macroscopic and quantum systems (between star systems and atomic systems) and its subsequent transformation equations. My hypothesis is that macroscopic and quantum cosmological systems are self-similar separated by a scale factor of S and a significant difference in the passage of time, factor T. These differences in scale and time, if indeed true, signify that the Universe (the space and time continuum) is intrinsically, both materialistically and dynamically, fractal constituting a fractal space-time continuum. This research is not simply the falsification of this initial hypothesis, but an attempt to resolve all disparaging differences through critical scientific analysis between the two scales if possible in order to develop a better framework for continual testing. The process of resolving remaining disparaging differences between the two scaled cosmologies is a process in falsification which ultimately will invalidate or validate the framework through probability. Currently the framework has evolved into a fairly robust predictive platform, never losing touch with its simple foundations and physical context, by deriving many undeniably fascinating results through mathematics and computer simulation. These results indicate that this framework is definitely on the right tack and a possibility in truly uniting relativistic astrophysics and quantum physics. Ultimately, fractal scale cosmology of this framework may be proven invalid, but the importance as a scientist lies in exploring all possibilities in order to unravel the truth. If the truth is that the Universe and the space-time continuum are not fractal, then that is just as important as finding that it is. As of right now, the probability is that this framework is indeed partially correct considering its results. And the research continues.

Biography

DeMelo was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He has a background in engineering and has worked in the technology industry for over 15 years as a consultant and software developer, building systems for a range of industries. He describes himself as a perpetual student who has actively pursued the study of physics for more than 15 years, approaching theoretical physics alongside the philosophy of physics. He is an advocate for universal education and states that he holds a complete physical "theory of everything" to be unattainable, arguing that any such theory should be continually questioned and reanalyzed.

Scientific contributions

DeMelo's principal work is a fractal, velocity-dependent scaling framework known as GPRA:REPMES ("Relativity and the Electrodynamics on the Phenomena of Matter and Energy through Scale"). Within it he proposes that matter, inertial mass and energy arise from interaction with a permeating spatial quantum medium made up of sub-quantum particles, which is itself constituted of smaller, discretely scaled self-similar mediums related by scale factors of S.

The framework holds that macroscopic and quantum cosmological systems are self-similar, separated by a scale factor S and a difference in the passage of time, factor T, which he interprets as evidence that the space-time continuum is intrinsically fractal. In this view, star systems and atomic systems are described as the same type of structure at two different points on a velocity spectrum, with star systems at low velocities and atomic systems at velocities near the speed of light.

Using the framework's transformation equations and computer simulation, DeMelo reports results including a derivation of the perihelion precession of Mercury (43.6 ± 0.4147 arc-seconds), a derivation of the elementary charge from a macroscopic-scale counterpart, the scaling of planetary masses to quantum-particle charges, and scaling relationships among physical constants. He presents these results, including simulation source code, in his self-published books. His conclusions on the state of physics hold that Newtonian mechanics, the Rutherford–Bohr model, special and general relativity and quantum probability are each "correct to a point" but limited when set against a fractal topology linking them together. These ideas are self-published and independent research, and are not part of mainstream accepted physics.
