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).
