DIGITAL IDENTITY AND STRUCTURAL CONTINUITY OF MORPHING AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES AT THE LIMIT Chinese Title / 中文書名:可變形自主車輛的數位身份與結構連續性極限 28/90 DIGITAL IDENTITY AND STRUCTURAL CONTINUITY OF MORPHING AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES AT THE LIMIT is a 777-page English Research Working Edition in the STARLI YULI Nano Supercar Trilogy, Research Institute XXXVI, Flagship 28 of 90. It asks whether the identity of a morphing modular vehicle can remain independently reconstructable after authorized component replacement without confusing a valid digital registration with preserved load-bearing structure. The three-way research coupling is Digital Identity x Structural Evolution x Traceability. The scope is unoccupied scaled panels, instrumented materials and hardware-in-the-loop studies; no working road vehicle, human safety certification or legal identity status is claimed. The falsifiable research contract compares a frozen physical-and-digital provenance architecture against conventional fleet records, competent expert inspection and signed digital-twin workflows under equal material, sensor, energy, computing, time and labor budgets. Its principal target is fewer unsafe identity counterexamples without worse independent handoff and replay completeness. Sealed challenges include cloned credentials, unlogged load-bearing module replacements, mismatched software epochs, shared sensor drift, missing repair history and physical specimens exchanged after shipping. Every refused or incomplete case remains in the denominator. Authentication, a consistent twin model and traceable physical load are independent requirements. Thirty mechanism-distinct mathematical plates examine Bayesian identity inference, physical genealogy and typed attachment graphs, critical replacement fractions, physical capacity margins, event causal order, cryptographic integrity and its limits, revocation freshness, observable configuration states, calibrated innovation statistics, shared covariance, hidden change detection, dangerous false-clear risk, complete release conjunctions and cross-laboratory identity handoffs. Each plate provides an explicit mathematical construction, variables and units, identifiability assumptions, a concrete blind falsifier and research-chapter links. The source candidate p(theta given z) proportional to p(z given theta)p(theta) is retained, but posterior confidence is never treated as a physical certificate. Eighty-two chapters and 410 individual research studies explore physical object continuity, component genealogy, secure provenance, twin-to-plant reconciliation, adversarial identity testing and accountable succession. Two hundred independent Research Gates address hidden defects, resource-matched alternatives and interfaces whose assumptions can fail. Thirty-three distinct Phoenix Answer Embryos propose separate instruments: birth witnesses, custody artefacts, cryptographic checkpoint monitors, negative-replay capsules, material comparison fixtures and real-stop referees. These are future scientific possibilities rather than built or validated technology. The core scientific boundary is that a copied identifier, authorized edit, or digitally intact log cannot prove retained structural qualification without direct independent evidence.

External methodological sources include manufacturing digital-twin taxonomy (10.1016/j.ifacol.2018.08.474), digital-twin product lifecycle digital threads (10.1115/IMECE2022-95182; 10.1016/j.procs.2024.02.104), a Digital Product Passport research review (10.1016/j.procs.2024.09.517), and NIST platform firmware resiliency guidance (10.6028/NIST.SP.800-193). W3C PROV-O and ISO 23247-1 inform provenance interoperability and manufacturing twins. Digital-product-passport regulation is contextual and does not confer general vehicle-specific compliance. No cited source demonstrates the proposed integrated F28 experiment, and no independent expert peer review or real-vehicle validation has been completed.
