We examine thermoelastic equations of state for silicate perovskite based on data from recent static compressiori studies. We analyze trade-offs among the fitting parameters arid examine data sets for possible effects of metastability and of Mg-Fe solid solution. Significant differences are found between equations of' state based on low pressure measurements obtained for perovskite outside of i...

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 nonclassical dynamical model for thermoelastic bodies with three phase-lags is studied. Applying variational formulation of the general three-dimensional initial-boundary value problem existence and uniqueness of solution in suitable spaces is proved. Spectral algorithm of approximation of the three-dimensional initial-boundary value problem for thermoelastic shell by a sequence o...

The present investigation deals with study of thermoelastic damping and frequency shift of Kirchhoff plate resonators by using generalized thermoelasticity theory of dual-phase-lag model. The basic equations of motion and heat conduction equation are written with the help of Kirchhoff-Love plate theory and dual phase lag model. The analytical expressions for thermoelastic damping and frequency ...

In this paper we consider the thermoelastic plate equation with localized thermal dissipation of memory type, proposed by Gurtin and Pipkin [3]. We will show that the solution of the corresponding model decays exponentially as time goes to infinity, provided the relaxation function decays exponentially. The mean difference with others thermoelastic system is that the whole system is of hyperbol...
