Summary: With special attention to the relevant example of Ericksen's liquid crystals (see \textit{J. L. Ericksen} [Trans. Soc. Rheol. 5, 23--34 (1961)], an axiomatic framework is presented, within which coherent representations for the inertial interactions and the kinetic energy in microstructured continua can be deduced.
