Generalized Continua as Models for Materials with Multi-scale Effects or Under Multi-field Actions /

This volume presents contributions describing the micro- and macro-behaviours, new existence and uniqueness theorems, the formulation of multi-scale problems, etc. and now it is time to ponder again the state of matter and to discuss new trends and applications. The main focus is directed on the fol...
