Abstract
We recall the systematic formulation of Eulerian mechanics in terms of Lie derivatives along the vector field of the material points. Using the abstract properties of Lie derivatives we show that the transport via Lie derivatives generates in a natural way a Poisson structure on the chosen phase space. The evolution equations for thermo-viscoelastic-viscoplastic materials in the Eulerian setting is formulated in the abstract framework of GENERIC (General Equations for Non-Equilibrium Reversible Irreversible Coupling). The equations may not be new, but the systematic splitting between reversible Hamiltonian and dissipative effects allows us to see the equations in a new light that is especially useful for future generalizing of the system, e.g.for adding new effects like reactive species.
