Thermoelastic solid constitutive models.


Thermoelastic solid constitutive models are not defined by a Helmholtz free energy density and depend on the deformation gradient and temperature. These constitutive models are therefore defined by a relation for some stress measure as a function of the deformation gradient and temperature. Consequently, the tangent stiffness associated with the first Piola-Kirchhoff stress is not symmetric for these constitutive models.
