The electrodynamics of continua is a branch ofthe physical sciences concerned with the
interaction of electromagnetic fields with deformable bodies. De formable bodies are …

A fully relativistic formulation of the concept of a perfectly elastic solid is developed with a
view to application to such problems as (a) the interaction of gravitational radiation with …

This is the second volume of a two-volume set presenting a unified approach to the
electrodynamics of continua, based on the principles of contemporary continuum of physics …

The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we set up the theory of elastic matter sources within
the framework of general relativity in a self-contained manner. The discussion is primarily …

We present a new variational framework for dissipative general relativistic fluid dynamics.
The model extends the convective variational principle for multi-fluid systems to account for …

The Lagrangian approach for modeling of relativistic elastic solid with distributed defects is
developed. The influence of defects on stress-strain state of the solid is taken into account …

We present and modernize Souriau's 1958 geometric framework for Relativistic continuous
media, and enlighten the necessary and the ad hoc modeling choices made since. We focus …

To say that a constitutive model has to verify “the principle of material objectivity” to ensure
its frame-indifference has become a common wisdom. Objective transports are thus defined …

The role played by objectivity in continuum physics is reexamined in an attempt to establish
fully its deep connection with classical and relativistic time derivatives. The way of …
