Covariant field equations and d-tensors of hyperbolic thermoelastic continuum with fine microstructure

A non-linear mathematical model of hyperbolic thermoelastic continuum with fine microstructure is proposed. The model is described in terms of 4-covariant field theoretical formalism. Fine microstructure is represented by d-tensors, playing role of extra field variables. A Lagrangian density for hyperbolic thermoelastic continuum with fine microstructure is given and the corresponding least action principle is formulated. 4-covariant field equations of hyperbolic thermoelasticity are obtained.

On precisely conserved quantities of coupled micropolar thermoelastic field

The paper is devoted to the 4-covariant formulation in fourdimensional space-time of dynamics of non-linear hyperbolic micropolar thermoelastic continuum. Theory ofmicropolar continuum are due to E. Cosserat and F. Cosserat and their study of 1909. The complement microdeformations and microrotations of an element are described by a non-rigid trihedron (the case of deformable micropolar directors).

Mathematical Models and Contemporary Theories of Physical Fields

Elements of the classical field theory based on a variational formulation of the Hamilton type are discussed and corresponding 4- dimensional Lagrange formalism is presented both as the variational and the group theoretical script. Variational symmetries (geometric and generalized) of field equations and the Noether theorem providing a regular way of obtaining a conservation law for every given variational symmetry are revisited in the study in order to give a complete version of the contemporary field theory.
