A complete system of equations of the local gradient theory of
electromagnetothermomechanics of polarized nonferromagnetic isotropic solids is
obtained with regard to polarization inertia and the irreversibility of the processes of
local mass displacement and polarization. It is shown that in this case the
constitutive relations for specific vectors of the local mass displacement and
polarization are rheological and contain time derivatives of the first and higher
orders. A corresponding key system of equations for the isothermal approximation is
obtained. This system is also written relatively to scalar and vector potentials of the
displacement vector, vectors of the electromagnetic field, and a reduced energy measure
of
the effect of the mass displacement on the internal energy. The Lorentz
gauge is generalized in such a way that equations for the vector potential of
the electromagnetic field and for the generalized scalar potential are not
coupled and have similar structures. The effect of polarization inertia and the
above-mentioned irreversibility of processes on the interaction of the fields is
analyzed.
