On balance of forces for mixtures

Abstract
The usual theory of mixtures assumes the existence of a partial stress tensor; this leads to a questionable relation of symmetry of forces. We show how a reinterpretation of the concept of partial stress tensor avoids this problem. The usual balance equations hold, but the distinction between the new stress tensor and the old leads to a different interpretation of boundary data.
