A generalization of the internal variable model for dynamics of solids with periodic microstructure
A new micromechanical approach to dynamics of solids with periodic microstructure is proposed. The approach represents a certain generalization of that leading to the refined maerodynamics of micro-periodic composites by introducing the length scales to the macro-description of both inertial and constitutive properties of a solid.
