We considered a nonlinear reduced Cosserat continuum: an elastic medium, whose translations and rotations are independent, the force stress tensor is asymmetric and the couple stress tensor is zero. We suggested the reduced Cosserat continuum as a possible model for granular medium. Granular materials are ubiquitous in our daily lives. They play an important role in many industries, such as mining, agriculture, and construction. We considered a nonlinear reduced Cosserat continuum for reference and current configurations and obtained the set of equations for each configuration.
