Micro Morphic (continuum)
Micro Morphic (continuum) :
A continuum in which each material point is equipped with a kind of micro-structure, described in a local system of coordinates, whereby each of its points comprises a microvolume with micro-displacements, micro-rotations, microdeformations, and micro-inertia tensor (see tensor of inertia). A number of material constants permit the description and solution of many complicated problems in which materials display non-classical responses to applied external loads (Eringen, 1999)
