Abstract

This paper provides a regime-based account of the emergence of classical transport dynamics within a variational dissipative–conservative framework governed by irreversible constraint accumulation. Once discrete interaction events exist, only sequences of outcomes capable of persistent continuation survive, while erratic or branching paths are eliminated by the same Lyapunov structure that enforces irreversibility. As a result, motion becomes stabilised, smooth, and effectively deterministic, giving rise to classical transport behaviour without assuming spacetime geometry or introducing new dynamical laws. Classical mechanics is interpreted as a regime description of persistent transport rather than a foundational theory. The contribution is explanatory and foundational, supplying the structural basis for classical motion prior to the emergence of geometry or gravity.
