Abstract
This chapter gives a compact overview of multi-phase continuum mechanics by recourse to the general concepts of mixture and porous media theories. Attention is focused on volumetrically coupled, multi-field formulations arising from the continuum mechanical treatment of multi-phase materials accounting for different physical phenomena. For this purpose, starting with the basics of the macroscopic mixture approach, mixture kinematics, some aspects of electromagnetism and the stress concept are reviewed. Finally, the axiomatic conservation laws of thermodynamics and electrodynamics are fused and represented within the holistic framework of a general multiphasic theory.
