Newtonian physics and General Relativity have studied it from outside. Based on fundamental forces the Grand Unified Theory (GUT) and the Standard Model (SM) of Particle Physics study from the inside. GUT and SM explain three fundamental forces that govern the universe: electromagnetism, the strong force, and the weak force. The fourth fundamental force hopes that must be gravity, which the SM cannot adequately explain. The research aims to explain fundamental forces and their interactions based on the hysteresis law. The hysteresis law studies the fundamental forces from both inside and outside, so, I hope it can explain the rules and principles of the universe from the microworld to the macroscopic world. The united force of the three fundamental forces in high energy singularity (vertical asymptote) of the hysteresis becomes the weakest like weak interaction and continuously like strong force but has an infinite range like electromagnetic interaction. In this sense, it may be called gravity. Unfortunately, gravity is not an individual force;it is the positive singularity or high energy asymptotic sum of three fundamental forces emerging from the depth of the hysteresis of the subatomic particles.展开更多
