This paper seeks to reconcile the constructal law with thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, and general relativity. Reconciling the constructal law with the more established laws of thermodynamics, we constitute a more complete and universal model of dynamics capable of explaining emergent and evolving design configurations observable throughout nature. Presented is a theory of universal dynamics, in which a core set of known universal laws can explain the universe's evolution through space, time, and all its emergent properties.
