There are, in each branch of science, statements which, expressed in ambiguous or even incorrect but seemingly friendly manner, were repeated for a long time and eventually became diffusely accepted. Objectivity of physical fields and of their time rates and frame indifference of constitutive relations are among such notions. A geometric reflection on the description of frame changes as spacetime...
Geometric Continuum Mechanics ( GCM) is a new formulation of Continuum Mechanics ( CM) based on the requirement of Geometric Naturality ( GN). According to GN, in introducing basic notions, governing principles and constitutive relations, the sole geometric entities of space-time to be involved are the metric field and the motion along the trajectory. The additional requirement that the theory should...
