Abstract
Evolution equations for liquid crystals and for magnetostrictive solids are discussed within the framework of a theory of continua with microstructure that allows for mechanical self-interactions and non-standard inertial terms.
Sommario
Si discutono equazioni di evoluzione per cristalli liquidi e per solidi magnetostrittivi nell'ambito di una teoria dei continui con microstruttura che contempla la possibilità sia di autointerazioni meccaniche che di termini inerziali non standard.
