Description
A unified approach is presented to the nonlinear continuum theory of deformable and fluent media subject to electromagnetic and thermal loads. Basic laws are used to establish the macroscopic electromagnetic theory are treated from first principles and nonlinear constitutive equations for large fields are developed. Many solutions of linear and nonlinear problems in the field of rigid media, elastic dielectrics, piezoelectricity, magnetoelasticity, ferromagnets, and magnetohydrodynamics are discussed. Applications are extended to ferrofluids, electrodynamics, memory-dependent materials, nonlocal theories, and relativistic continua
