Heat-Flux Relaxation and the Possibility of Spatial Interactions in Higher-Grade Materials

We investigate the thermodynamic compatibility of weakly nonlocal materials with constitutive equations depending on the third spatial gradient of the deformation and the heat flux ruled by an independent balance law. In such materials, the molecules experience long-range interactions. Examples of b...
