Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) as a Stress-Test Model for Technological Continuity

A separate exploratory conceptual study examining a hypothetical high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) scenario as a stress test for technological continuity. The paper analyzes potential infrastructure dependencies, practical knowledge disruption, industrial recovery constraints, and alternative recovery pathways. It does not claim empirical validation or predict inevitable technological collapse.

Abstract

A separate exploratory conceptual study examining a hypothetical high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) scenario as a stress test for technological continuity. The paper analyzes potential infrastructure dependencies, practical knowledge disruption, industrial recovery constraints, and alternative recovery pathways. It does not claim empirical validation or predict inevitable technological collapse.
