In this paper, the authors study the thermodynamics of nonlinear materials with internal state variables whose temporal evolution is governed by ordinary differential equations, and employ a method developed by Coleman and Noll to find the general restrictions which the Clausius-Duhem inequality places on response functions.
Abstract
This is a study of the thermodynamics of nonlinear materials with internal state variables whose temporal evolution is governed by ordinary differential equations. After employing a method developed by Coleman and Noll to find the general restrictions which the Clausius—Duhem inequality places on response functions, we analyze various types of dynamical stability that can be exhibited by solutions of the internal evolution equations. We also discuss integral dissipation inequalities, conditions under which temperatures can be associated with internal states, and the forms taken by response functions when the material is a fluid.

On internal dissipation inequalities and finite strain inelastic constitutive laws: Theoretical and numerical comparisons

On a finite strain viscoplastic theory based on a new internal dissipation inequality

TL;DR: In this paper, a finite strain viscoplastic model described also in the rotated material coordinate system is formulated and the evolution equations are expressed in terms of the material time derivatives of the rotated elastic logarithmic strain, the accumulated plastic strain and the strain-like tensor conjugate to the rotated back stress.

Aeroelastic behavior of composite plates subject to damage growth

TL;DR: In this article, a study of the aeroelastic response of damaged composite plates is presented, where the plates considered are those that undergo damage on a slow or rapid time scale due to the natural progression of micro-cracks in the composite structure.

The Thermodynamics of Elastic Materials with Heat Conduction and Viscosity

TL;DR: The basic physical concepts of classical continuum mechanics are body, configuration of a body, and force system acting on a body as mentioned in this paper, which can be expressed as follows: a body is regarded as a smooth manifold whose elements are the material points; a configuration is defined as a mapping of the body into a three-dimensional Euclidean space, and a force system is defined to be a vector-valued function defined for pairs of bodies.
