Fermat Logistics

PHYSICAL TRANSPORT DIVISION

Arbitrary mass. Arbitrary destination. Fastest path. In 1662, Fermat proved that light does not travel the shortest distance between two points — it travels the path of least time, bending at material boundaries. We do the same thing with freight.

The transport network is a heterogeneous medium. Ground corridors, air lanes, sea routes, evacuated tubes, and electromagnetic launch rails each have different velocity, cost, and risk characteristics — the logistics equivalent of optical refraction indices. Every routing decision minimises a weighted cost functional subject to payload sensitivity and network constraints. The path bends at modal boundaries, just as light bends at refractive index boundaries. This is Snell's law applied to freight.
