This paper is concerned with a theory of elastic materials with voids where the second
gradient of deformation and the second gradient of volume fraction field are added to the set …

This article is devoted to a theory of thermoviscoelastic materials with voids where the time
derivative of the strain tensor and the time derivative of the gradient of the volume fraction …

In this paper we formulate balance principles for an immiscible mixture of continua with
microstructure in the broadest sense to include, eg, diffusion and adsorption phenomena …

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 …

The interest in the gradient theory of elasticity is stimulated by the fact that this theory is
adequate to investigate important problems related to size effects and nanotechnology. In …

In this paper we present a strain gradient theory of thermoelastic porous solids with initial
stresses and initial heat flux. First, we establish the equations governing the infinitesimal …

Chiral effects cannot be described by means of the classical theories of continua. In the
context of the strain gradient theory of porous elastic solids we study the deformation of a …

The thermo-mechanical balance equations for a porous material with big irregular pores are
derived from the general ones for a medium with ellipsoidal microstructure by imposing the …
