Abstract

We prove continuous dependence on the intensity coefficient and continuous dependence on the external data in the theory of magneto-elasticity. We do not require the Lamé coefficients to be positive. We use logarithmic convexity arguments similar to those of Ames and Straughan (1992) in classical thermoelasticity.
