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 …

The theory of porous elastic solids with large vacuous interstices, considered by Giovine like
materials with ellipsoidal structure, includes, as a particular case, the nonlinear theory of …

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 …

A porous material with large irregular holes is here studied as a hyperelastic continuum with
latent microstructure, and the mechanical balance equations are derived from the general …

The first attempts to describe the behaviour of porous materials with the use of an additional
degree of kinematical freedom, in order to refine the Cauchy's theory, are due principally to …

In this work, we construct an atypical continuum theory in order to describe the behaviour of
soils: they have a particulate structure and fluids can seep through pores, mechanically …

We model the mechanical behavior of diatomic crystals in the light of mixture theory. Use is
made of an approximation method similar to one proposed by Signorini within the theory of …

We formulate the balance principles for an immiscible mixture of continua with
microstructure in the broadest sense for include, eg, phenomena of diffusion, adsorption and …

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 …
