contents Our previous study [1] has demonstrated that the gauge theory is a proper framework for characterizing the local temporal and spatial interactions in inhomogeneous elastic media. However, in that study temporal interactions were interpreted as the compensation for the loss of kinetic energy resulting from homogenization process, distinct from damping effects. In addition, that study did not account for the integration of temporal and spatial transformations, leading to the omission of some crucial information such as thermal stresses. In this paper, we address this oversight to establish generalized equations by employing a unified methodology that encompasses the integrated temporal-spatial transformations and the principle of minimum dissipation. Among many interesting new findings, we highlight that the newly derived equations are inherently consistent with the first and the second laws of thermodynamics, because this gauge theory naturally incorporates the fundamental mechanism that governs the partitioning between the dissipative and the non-dissipative energy.
