A tribute to Gianfranco Capriz on the occasion of his 75th birthday, this book collects about 20 research papers written by scientists in the field of continuum thermomechanics. The authors discuss a number of different theories, classical and new. Moreover, general underlying themes are both the exploration of the limits of the continuum approach (as it was consolidated between the late '50s and the early '70s) and the study of those amendments and extensions that would hopefully allow to treat mathematically a host of real-life problems that have been proposed, but not yet adequately modelled, within materials science, structural optimization, biosciences, medical engineering, superconductivity and other disciplines. The reader will find displayed progresses in modelling non-standard material structures.
