| Abstract | We present, in the first part of the paper, the well-known fundamental electromagnetic-acoustic equations, that is, the coupled Maxwell’s and Newton’s equations for an elastic dielectric continuum in differential form, and we also discuss the uniqueness of their linear solutions. In the second part, from a general principle of physics, we deduce a three-field variational principle that operates on the mechanical displacements, the electric potential, and the electromagnetic vector potential of the dielectric continuum. Then, we extend it through an involutory (or Friedrichs’s) transformation in deriving a nine-field unified variational principle that operates on the mechanical, electrical, and magnetic continuous linear fields under the infinitesimal strains. This variational principle generates Maxwell’s and Newton’s equations, the coupled linear constitutive relations, and the associated natural boundary conditions for the regular region of the dielectric continuum as its Euler-Lagrange equations. In the third part, we further generalise the unified variational principle so as to incorporate the jump conditions across a surface of discontinuity within the dielectric region. We also show that the integral and differential types of variational principles that apply to the linear motions of the elastic dielectric region with a fixed internal surface of discontinuity are in agreement with and recover, as special cases, some of the earlier variational principles. Further, the variational principles may be directly used in linear electromagnetic and/or acoustic field computations and in consistently establishing the lower order one- or two-dimensional equations of the elastic dielectric continuum. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
