ABSTRACT
Modern physical cosmology began with Einstein-Hilbert's theory of general relativity a hundred years ago. Physical cosmology is one of the most attractive and enigmatic disciplines, which studies the largest-scale structures and dynamics of the universe. An interesting approach to the description and understanding of the parameters of the universe was proposed by Rubio. His model presents the universe as an elastic sphere filled with electrons that have their size determined by Thompson's classical electron radius. There are of course other approaches dealing with physical parameters and of considering the universe as a substrate/ether, which require a study and deep analysis that takes into account the presented tessellated universe. A combination of electromagnetic and inerton properties of the system being studied may lead to new effects, such as the saving of energy and/or increasing the functional efficiency of some machines or engines.
