<div><div>This monograph provides a comprehensive and self-contained treatment of continuum physics, illustrating a systematic approach to the constitutive equations for wide-ranging classes of materials.&nbsp; Derivations of results are detailed through careful proofs, and the contents have been developed to ensure a self-contained and consistent presentation.</div><div><br></div><div>Part I reviews the kinematics of continuous bodies and illustrates the general setting of balance laws.&nbsp; Essential preliminaries to continuum physics – such as reference and current configurations, transport relations, singular surfaces, objectivity, and objective time derivatives – are covered in detail.&nbsp; A chapter on balance equations then develops the balance laws of mass, linear momentum, angular momentum, energy, and entropy, as well as the balance laws in electromagnetism.</div><div><br></div><div>Part II is devoted to the general requirements on constitutive models, emphasizing the application of objectivity and consistency with the second law of thermodynamics.&nbsp; Common models of simple materials are then reviewed, and in this framework, detailed descriptions are given of solids (thermoelastic, elastic, and dissipative) and fluids (elastic, thermoelastic, viscous, and Newtonian).</div><div><br></div><div>A wide of variety of constitutive models are investigated in Part III, which consists of separate chapters focused on several types of non-simple materials: materials with memory, aging and higher-order grade materials, mixtures, micropolar media, and porous materials.&nbsp; The interaction of the electromagnetic field with deformation is also examined within electroelasticity, magnetoelasticity, and plasma theory.</div><div><br></div><div>Hysteretic effects and phase transitions are considered in Part IV.&nbsp; A new approach is established by treating entropy production as a constitutive function in itself, as is the case for entropy and entropy flux.
