Original Kurzfassung:
We present the balance relations for a continuum in the Eulerian formulation in a pure covariant fashion. Based on the analysis of nonrelativistic particle mechanics, we adapt the covariant description to the case of a continuum. The use of the covariant Nijenhuis differential as well as the splitting of the vertical configuration bundel are the key objects that allow a coordinate-free representation. We state the balance equations such that they are valid, also when time variant transformations are applied, which leads to a nontrivial space-time connection and a metric which explicitly depends on the time.
