Abstract
In the recent years a controversy has appeared in the literature in reference to the frame indifference of certain tensorial expressions. In this paper a reexamination of the definition of frame indifference, as it is expressed mathematically, is presented. It is emphasized that frame indifference cannot be examined before a choice of reference frame is made. Finally, a number of frame indifferent constitutive equations are given to illustrate the concepts presented here.

On the importance of material frame-indifference and lift forces in multiphase flows

TL;DR: In this article, the importance of the principle of material frame-indifference in multiphase flows is discussed and a general constitutive relation which is frame-invariant and general enough to be used in many applications is derived.

A model for the estimation of residual stresses in soft tissues

Sunnie Joshi
TL;DR: Sunnie Joshi et al. as discussed by the authors developed a mathematical tool for the estimation of residual stress field in an elastic body that has mechanical properties similar to that of the arterial wall, by making use of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging techniques.

Introduction to the mechanics of a continuous medium

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a linearized theory of elasticity for tensors, which they call Linearized Theory of Elasticity (LTHE), which is based on tensors and elasticity.

Some remarks on elastic-plastic deformation at finite strain

TL;DR: The limitations of this theory and its relationship to the more general thermodynamical theory of Green and Naghdi has not been made clear as discussed by the authors, and the present paper is intended to provide the needed clarifications.

A discussion of stress rates in finite deformation problems

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the use of the Jaumann rate in the generalization of the infinitesimal theory leads to an oscillation in the evolution of the yield surface in simple shear which is explained on the basis of the hypoelastic solution.
