A variationally consistent mesoscopic Cosserat theory with distributed defects and configurational forces
A Palatini variational formulation enlarges Cosserat theory by making torsion and curvature independent defect measures, producing balance laws, defect excitations, and configurational forces via Noether currents tied to Bianchi identities.
