Abstract

Following the definition of the local material symmetry group for micromorphic media given in Eremeyev (2018), we discuss here the constitutive equations of the reduced micromorphic continuum introduced in Neff et al (2014). With this definition we demonstrate that the reduced micromorphic model can be characterized as a micromorphic subfluid that is an intermediate class between micromorphic solids and fluids.
