Continuum theory of micromorphic electromagnetic thermoelastic solids

A continuum theory is introduced for micromorphic thermoelastic solids subject to electromagnetic interactions. Frame-independent, linear constitutive equations, satisfying thermodynamic restrictions are constructed. Constitutive equations display several new phenomena arising from microstructural interactions. Field equations are given. The theory presented here is important to studying high frequency, short wave-length modes of microstructural solids.
