I'm playing with mechanical analogues for current/voltage (force/velocity) and passive elements $RLC$ (damper, spring, mass). In order to define and analogue for Poynting vector... what should be the analogue for electric field $E$ and magnetic field $H$ in mechanics?

    Well, there's GEM. – Qmechanic Feb 05 '20 at 17:54
  • thank you, I found more information in https://physics.stackexchange.com/q/128650/ – paketecuento Feb 06 '20 at 18:15
  • Here + you can find a comparison between mechanics and electricity, and here you can find a comparison between mechanical and electrical EDOs (could be useful also a comparison between electrical and magnetical circuits)...(sorry need more space) – Dabed Feb 07 '20 at 12:55
  • ...I don't know if you can make a perfect analogy but as I read the Poynting's theorem uses the Poynting vector to declare the conservation of the electromagnetic energy so I suppose the closest equivalent would just be the classical conservation of energy. – Dabed Feb 07 '20 at 12:56
