Internal Variables and Generalized Continuum Theories
Abstract The canonical thermomechanics on the material manifold is enriched by the introduction of dual weakly non-local internal variables and extra entropy fluxes. In addition to the dissipative reaction-diffusion equation for a single internal variable of state, a hyperbolic evolution equation for the internal degree of freedom can be also recovered in the non-dissipative case. It is demonstrated that the Mindlin mi-cromorphic theory can be represented in terms of dual internal variables in a natural way in the framework of the canonical thermomechanics.
