The bi-continuum model composed of two interpenetrating and dynamically coupled material continua is analysed as a simplified but relatively accurate way to describe some physical phenomena in crystalline solids. The essential novelty of our approach consists in treating a crystalline medium as bi-continuum, even if the crystalline lattice is structurally single-component. Particular attention is paid to the oscillatory behaviour of solutions on the atomic level. Starting from a discrete atomic chain, the basic formulation of the bi-continuum model is derived. The essential features of the model, including accuracy of the results as functions of physical parameters, are discussed.
