Abstract The main aim of this paper is to propose a new memory dependent derivative (MDD) theory which called threetemperature nonlinear generalized anisotropic micropolar-thermoelasticity. The system of governing equations of the problems associated with the proposed theory is extremely difficult or impossible to solve analytically due to nonlinearity, MDD diffusion, multi-variable nature, multi-stage processing and anisotropic properties of the considered material. Therefore, we propose a novel boundary element method (BEM) formulation for modeling and simulation of such system. The computational performance of the proposed technique has been investigated. The numerical results illustrate the effects of time delays and kernel functions on… More >

Abstract The propagation of thermoelastic waves in a homogeneous, isotropic elastic semi-infinite space is subjected to rotation and initial stress, which is at temperature T₀ - initially, and whose boundary surface is subjected to heat source and load moving with finite velocity. Temperature and stress distribution occurring due to heating or cooling and have been determined using certain boundary conditions. Numerical results have been given and illustrated graphically in each case considered. Comparison is made with the results predicted by the theory of thermoelasticity in the absence of rotation and initial stress. The results indicate that the effect of the rotation… More >

Abstract A mathematical model is elaborated for a thermoelastic infinite body with a spherical cavity. A generalized set of governing equations is formulated in the context of three different models of thermoelasticity: the Biot model, also known as “coupled thermoelasticity” model; the Lord-Shulman model, also referred to as “generalized thermoelasticity with one-relaxation time” approach; and the Green-Lindsay model, also called “generalized thermoelasticity with two-relaxation times” approach. The Adomian’s decomposition method is used to solve the related mathematical problem. The bounding plane of the cavity is subjected to harmonic thermal loading with zero heat flux and strain. Numerical results for the temperature,… More >

Abstract In this paper, transient crack analysis in two-dimensional, isotropic, continuously non-homo -ge -neous and linear elastic functionally graded materials is presented. A boundary-domain element method based on boundary-domain integral representations is developed. The Laplace-transform technique is utilized to eliminate the dependence on time. Laplace-transformed fundamental solutions of linear coupled thermoelasticity for isotropic, homogeneous and linear elastic solids are applied to derive boundary-domain integral equations. The numerical implementation is performed by using a collocation method for the spatial discretization. The time-dependent numerical solutions are obtained by the Stehfest's inversion algorithm. For an edge crack in a finite domain under thermal shock,… More >

Abstract This investigation is aimed to study the two dimensional problem of thermoelastic medium with voids under the effect of the gravity. The modulus of elasticity is taken as a linear function of the reference temperature and employing the two-temperature generalized thermoelasticity. The problem is studied in the context of Green-Naghdi (G-N) theory of types II and III. The normal mode analysis method is used to obtain the exact expressions for the physical quantities which have been shown graphically by comparison between two types of the (G-N) theory in the presence and the absence of the gravity, the temperature dependent properties… More >

Abstract It is well known in elastic stress analysis using the boundary element method (BEM) that an additional volume integral appears in the basic form of the boundary integral equation if thermal effects are considered. In order to restore this general numerical tool as a truly boundary solution technique, it is perhaps most desirable to transform this volume integral exactly into boundary ones. For general 2D anisotropic thermo-elastostatics without heat sources, this was only achieved very recently. The presence of concentrated heat sources in the domain, however, leads to singularities at these points that pose additional difficulties in the volume-to-surface integral… More >

Abstract The scaled boundary finite element method (SBFEM) is presented to study thermoelastic problems in materials with voids. The SBFEM combines the main advantages of the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM). In this method, only the boundary is discretized with elements leading to a reduction of spatial dimension by one. It reduces computational efforts in mesh generation and CPU. In contrast to the BEM, no fundamental solution is required, which permits to analyze general boundary value problems, where the conventional BEM cannot be applied due to missing fundamental solution. The computational homogenization technique is applied for… More >

Abstract Green’s functions, or fundamental solutions, are necessary items in the formulation of the boundary integral equation (BIE), the analytical basis of the boundary element method (BEM). In the formulation of the BEM for 3D general anisotropic elasticity, considerable attention has been devoted to developing efficient algorithms for computing these quantities over the years. The mathematical complexity of this Green’s function has also posed an obstacle in the development of this numerical method to treat problems of 3D anisotropic thermoelasticity. This is because thermal effects manifest themselves as an additional domain integral in the integral equation; this has implications for the… More >

Abstract As has been well documented for the boundary element method (BEM), a volume integral is present in the integral equation for thermoelastic analysis. Any attempt to directly integrate the integral shall inevitably involve internal discretization that will destroy the BEM’s distinctive notion as a true boundary solution technique. Among the schemes to overcome this difficulty, the exact transformation approach is the most elegant since neither further approximation nor internal treatments are involved. Such transformation for 2D anisotropic thermoelasticity has been achieved by Shiah and Tan (1999) with the aid of domain mapping. This paper revisits this problem and presents a… More >

Abstract The Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method for linear transient coupled thermoelastic analysis is presented. Orthotropic material properties are considered here. A Heaviside step function as the test functions is applied in the weak-form to derive local integral equations for solving two-dimensional (2-D) problems. In transient coupled thermoelasticity an inertial term appears in the equations of motion. The second governing equation derived from the energy balance in coupled thermoelasticity has a diffusive character. To eliminate the time-dependence in these equations, the Laplace-transform technique is applied to both of them. Local integral equations are written on small sub-domains with a circular shape.… More >
