The evolution equation: an application of groupoids to material evolution
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to study the evolution of a material point of a body by itself, and not the body as a whole. To do this, we construct a groupoid encoding all the intrinsic properties of the particle and its characteristic foliations, which permits us to define the evolution equation. We also discuss phenomena like remodeling and aging.
