Effective Curvature
: friction degrades curvature until it vanishes at the critical threshold.

Score Reasoning
- Importance
- The single most important concept in the framework: K_eff = K(1-T/T*)+ is the master variable controlling all nine roles of curvature. Every applied result depends on it.
- Novelty
- New theorem: effective curvature as a universal degradation function independent of J and rho. The identification of T* = 1/K as critical threshold and simultaneous proportional degradation of all nine roles is original.
- Quality
- Definitive reference article for the framework's central concept. Clear definition, universal scaling, degradation table for all nine roles. Excellent LaTeX and cross-links.
