Electromagnetism coupled with continuum mechanics

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the integration of electromagnetism with continuum mechanics, emphasizing the need for self-consistent treatments of classical and relativistic electromagnetism. The recommended primary resource is "Statistical Physics, Part 2" by Landau and Lifshitz, particularly Volume X, which covers classical and quantum transport theory in detail. Additional resources include a chapter on electrodynamics of moving media and a textbook on electromagnetic plasmas, providing comprehensive insights into the subject.

PREREQUISITES
  • Classical electromagnetism principles
  • Continuum mechanics fundamentals
  • Relativistic physics concepts
  • Familiarity with transport theory
NEXT STEPS
  • Study "Statistical Physics, Part 2" by Landau and Lifshitz for advanced understanding of transport theory
  • Explore the chapter on electrodynamics of moving media for practical applications
  • Research electromagnetic plasma dynamics for insights into field interactions
  • Investigate advanced topics in relativistic electromagnetism for deeper theoretical knowledge
USEFUL FOR

Researchers, physicists, and engineers interested in the intersection of electromagnetism and continuum mechanics, particularly those focusing on advanced theoretical frameworks and practical applications in plasma physics.

Are there any textbooks on something like this, a self consistent treatment of classical electromagnetism (relavistic is fine too) where the field equations are solved alongside with the matter fields.

Landau Lifgarbagez .
 
Yeah, it's the best to use Landau Lifgarbagez. One of the very best treatments of classical and quantum transport theory is vol. X (Kinetics). There is a lot about em. plasmas!
