Conservation laws have been recently obtained by requiring that a positive definite functional of the stress gradient (the Euler–Lagrange equations of which are the Beltrami–Michell compatibility conditions) be invariant under certain transformations. Here these laws are extended to include body forces, thermal stresses and Kröner's incompatibility tensor as source terms in the configurational balance laws, which allows for the incompatibility in the volume to be measured from surface data. An example is presented.
