The complexity and variety of geometrical changes in physical systems at submacroscopic levels has led to various approaches to the broadening of the classical theory of finite elasticity. One approach, the field theory “elasticity with disarrangements”, employed the multiscale geometry of structured deformations in order to incorporate the effects of disarrangements such as slips and separations...
Standard measures of local deformation such as deformation gradient, strain, elastic deformation, and plastic deformation are dimensionless. However, many macroscopic and submacroscopic geometrical changes observed in continuous bodies result in the formation of zones across whose boundaries significant changes in geometry can occur. In order to predict the sizes of such zones and their influence...
