In this work, thermoelastic damping effect on the hemispherical shells is investigated. The material is selected silicon, and heat conduction equation for thermal flow is solved to obtain the temperature profile in which bending approximation with inextensional assumption of the model. Using the temperature profile, eigen-value analysis is performed to get the natural frequencies of hemispheric...

The evolution of the diffraction profiles during the fast thermoelastic deformation and structural transformations induced in a thin Ni film by short pulse laser irradiation is investigated in molecular dynamics simulations. Fast disappearance of the diffraction peaks characteristic for the initial crystal structure is related to the homogeneous nucleation and growth of liquid regions inside th...

We consider the stability properties for thermoelastic Bresse system which describes the motion of a linear planar shearable thermoelastic beam. The system consists of three wave equations and two heat equations coupled in certain pattern. The two wave equations about the longitudinal displacement and shear angle displacement are effectively damped by the dissipation from the two heat equations...

In this work, an analytical solution for thermoelastic waves in a metal induced by an ultrafast laser pulse was formulated in the form of a Fourier series. The two-step heat transfer model was applied to account for the thermal nonequilibrium between electrons and the lattice during ultrafast pulsed laser heating. The coupling between the strain rate and the temperature ®eld was also considered...

SUMMARY The paper presents a new methodology for identifying sub-surface damage in composite components using a combination of Pulse Phase Thermography (PPT) and Thermoelastic Stress Analysis (TSA).

The material assumptions made to facilitate Thermoelastic Stress Analysis (TSA) are linear elasticity, material homogeneity and isotropy, and mechanical properties that are independent of temperature. The unusual shape memory and superelastic properties of near equiatomic NiTi alloys complicate the application of any experimental stress analysis technique, and in the case of TSA, make these ass...

The present article deals with the study of propagation of plane waves in isotropic generalized thermoelastic diffusion with voids under initial stress. It is found that, for two dimensional model of isotropic generalized thermoelastic diffusion with voids under initial stress, there exists four coupled waves namely, P wave, Mass Diffusion (MD) wave, thermal (T) wave and Volume Fraction (VF) wa...

The equations of coupled thermoelasticity are considered in the case of stationary vibrations. The dimensional and order-of-magnitude analysis of the parameters occurring within these equations prompts the introduction of the new non-dimensionalisation scheme, highlighting the nearly-adiabatic nature of the resulting motions. The departure from the purely adiabatic regime is characterised by a ...

In this article thermoelastic damping in nano-beam resonators is investigated based on nonlocal theory of elasticity and the Euler-Bernoulli beam assumptions. The governing equation of deflection of the beam is obtained from shear and moment resultants and stress–strain relationship of the nonlocal elasticity model and also the governing equations of thermoelastic damping are established by usi...
