Mathematical Models and Contemporary Theories of Physical Fields

Authors: Kovalev V. A., Radaev Y. N.

Elements of the classical field theory based on a variational formulation of the Hamilton type are discussed and corresponding 4- dimensional Lagrange formalism is presented both as the variational and the group theoretical script. Variational symmetries (geometric and generalized) of field equations and the Noether theorem providing a regular way of obtaining a conservation law for every given variational symmetry are revisited in the study in order to give a complete version of the contemporary field theory. All developments are presented in the non-linear frame (i.e.

Covariant field equations and d-tensors of hyperbolic thermoelastic continuum with fine microstructure

Authors: Kovalev V. A., Radaev Y. N.

A non-linear mathematical model of hyperbolic thermoelastic continuum with fine microstructure is proposed. The model is described in terms of 4-covariant field theoretical formalism. Fine microstructure is represented by d-tensors, playing role of extra field variables. A Lagrangian density for hyperbolic thermoelastic continuum with fine microstructure is given and the corresponding least action principle is formulated. 4-covariant field equations of hyperbolic thermoelasticity are obtained. Constitutive equations of microstructural hyperbolic thermoelasticity are discussed.
