This paper is an attempt to determine quasi-static thermal stresses in a thin elliptical plate which is subjected to transient temperature on the top face with zero temperature on the lower face and the homogeneous boundary condition of the third kind on the fixed elliptical curved surface. The solution to conductivity equation is elucidated by employing a classical method. The solution of stre...

Thermoelastic behavior of temperature-dependent (TD) and independent (TID) functionally graded variable thickness cantilever beam subjected to mechanical and thermal loadings is studied based on shear deformation theory using a semi-analytical method. Loading is composed of a transverse distributed force, a longitudinal distributed temperature field due to steady-state heat conduction from root...

Thermoelastic Stress Analysis (TSA) is a full-field technique for experimental stress analysis that is based on infra-red thermography. The technique has proved to be extremely effective for studying elastic stress fields and is now well established. It is based on the measurement of the temperature change that occurs as a result of a stress change. As residual stress is essentially a mean stre...

This paper provides a comprehensive derivation for thermoelastic damping (TED) in flexural-mode ring gyroscopes, in light of recent efforts to design high rateresolution gyroscopes. Imposing an upper limit on the attainable mechanical noise floor of a vibratory gyroscope, thermoelastic damping in a ring gyroscope is extracted from the equations of linear thermoelasticity. By assuming that it is...

In this paper, the surface waves propagation in a generalized magneto-thermoelastic materials taking (Green Lindsay) model with voids and initial stress is investigated. The basic governing equations have been formulated in xz-plane and the magnetic field is considered in y-axis that acts perpendicular to the wave propagation. Lame's potential method is applied to solve the problem. The boundar...

Structural components subjected to high frequency vibrations, such as those used in vibrating parts of gas turbine engines, are usually required to avoid resonance frequencies. Generally, the operating frequency is designed at more than resonance frequencies. When a vibrating structure starts or stops, the structure has to pass through a resonance frequency, which results in large stress concen...

In a recently developed model of ion beam induced plastic deformation of amorphous solids, ion tracks are described as cylindrical thermoelastic inclusions formed upon local heating and shear stress relaxation along the ion trajectories. According to this model, track formation can be influenced or even suppressed by an applied stress. This model prediction is tested by studying the influence o...

Abstract Background The Stress Intensity Factor (SIF) is used to describe the stress state and mechanical behaviour of a material in presence cracks. SIF can be experimentally assessed using contactless techniques such as Thermoelastic Analysis (TSA). classic TSA theory concerns relationship between temperature variations was successfully applied fracture mechanics for evaluation crack tip loca...

The stress wave propagation in a generalized thermoelastic polygonal plate of inner and outer cross sections is studied using the Fourier expansion collocation method. The wave equation of motion based on two-dimensional theory of elasticity is applied under the plane strain assumption of generalized thermoelastic plate of polygonal shape, composed of homogeneous isotropic material.  The freque...
