We analyze homothermal acceleration waves in complex materials (those with active
microstructure) in the presence of internal constraints that link the temperature to a manifold …

We propose new implicit constitutive relations for the heat fluxes of a two-temperature
mixture of fluids. These relations are frame-indifferent forms. However, classical explicit …

The mechanical balance equations for a body with microstructure are derived from an
expansion of the general Noll's axiom of frame-indifference that takes into account the …

We propose a multi-scale view on the motion of grains inside a continuum body undergoing
strain. We consider the whole compound as a mixture and attribute to every material point …

The thermo-mechanical balance and constitutive equations for a porous material with large
irregular pores are investigated by imposing internal kinematic and thermal constraints on …

Based on concrete examples dealing with one-level periodic and quasi-periodic, and two-
level periodic lattices, we show that the homogenization of complex lattices generically …
