The vertical ultrasonic surface displacement generated by a laser-induced, thermoelelastic, rectangular surface strip source is formulated. The main features of this source, ultrasonic rise times comparable to those of the generating light pulse derivatives, and a large amplitude, double-pulsed waveform, are advantageous for ultrasonic spectraland time-domain measurements for nondestructive mat...

In this paper, analysis for the propagation of general anisotropic media of finite thickness with two thermal relaxation times is studied. Expression of displacements, temperature, thermal stresses, and thermal gradient for most general anisotropic thermoelastic plates of finite thickness are obtained in the analysis. The calculation is then carried forward for slightly more specialized case of...

A two dimensional deformation due to internal heat source in a thermoelastic solid with microtemperatures under the dependence of modulus of elasticity and thermal conductivity on reference temperature has been studied. A mechanical force of constant magnitude is applied at the free surface of thermoelastic half space. The normal modes technique has been applied to obtain the exact expressions ...

A finite element approximation to the solution of a one-dimensional linear thermoelastic problem with unilateral contact of the Signorini type and heat flux is proposed. An error bound is derived and some numerical experiments are performed.

In the current study the influence of weight percentage of HIPS, weight percentage of CNT and hardener content on damping 1st and damping 2nd properties of epoxy/HIPS/CNT hybrid composite wase valuated. Mixture design methodology was employed to generate mathematical models for predicting damping 1st and damping 2nd behaviors of new mentioned hybrid nanocomposite as function of physical factors...

in the present paper the behavior of an elastically mounted cylinder in low and high mass-damping ratio is investigated. for high mass-damping ratio, a classical wake oscillator model is used. at the first, by neglecting all damping and nonlinear terms of this model, the possibility of using a linear model for determination of the lock-in range and the dominant mode is investigated. then, witho...

A study is made of the propagation of time-harmonic plane thermoelastic waves of assigned frequency in an infinite rotating medium using Green-Naghdi model (1993) of linear thermoelasticity without energy dissipation. A more general dispersion equation is derived to examine the effect of rotation on the phase velocity of the modified coupled thermal dilatational shear waves. It is observed that...
