Title: Observers and Frames of Reference in Classical Continuum Theory
Abstract: This chapter is dedicated to a relatively abstract question: Do balance laws and constitutive equations keep their form if we switch from an observer at rest to an arbitrarily moving one? In mathematical terms this problem can be analyzed by using so-called Euclidean transformations and establish an almost philosophical principle according to which true laws of nature must keep their form, independently of the frame of reference.
