Thermoelastic simulation of functionally graded materials is practically important for engineers. Here, the extension and assembly of our two previous papers (Computational Mechanics 2006, 38, p51-60; Engineering Analysis with Boundary Elements 2008, 32, p704-712) is presented to evaluate the transient temperature and stress distributions in two-dimensional functionally graded solids. In this c...

12  Abstract— In the present paper, The normal mode analysis is used to study the deformation of a rotating generalized thermoelastic medium under the influence of gravity subjected to thermal loading in the context of dual-phase-lag thermoelastic model. The exact expressions for the temperature, displacement components, and stress components are given in the physical domain and illustrated gr...

Photoacoustic (PA) signals of CsPbCl3 crystals have been examined in a wide temperature range of 150–300 K. The PA signals, induced by ns-pulsed laser excitation of electronic states and detected with a piezoelectric transducer, are thermoelastic ultrasonic waves lasting for hundreds of microseconds. The wavelet analysis of the PA wave has clarified that the thermoelastic wave includes several ...

Lp–Lq decay estimates of solutions to Cauchy problems of linear thermoelastic systems with second sound in three spatial variables are studied. By carefully analysis of the different effects of higher, middle and lower frequencies in phase space, the asymptotic behaviour of characteristic roots of coefficient matrices is obtained. Then, with the help of the information on characteristic roots a...

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...

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 the present paper, the nonlinear transfinite element procedure recently published by the author is improved by introducing an enhanced convergence criterion to significantly reduce the computational run-times. It is known that transformation techniques have been developed mainly for linear systems, only. Due to using a huge number of time steps, employing the conventional time integration me...

A solution based on a Hertzian approximation to the contact pressure distribution is obtained for the transient thermoelastic contact of a sphere sliding on a rigid non-conducting plane. With this simplification an integral equation formulation is obtained. In a nondimensional form the only independent parameter is the starting condition and numerical results are presented for various values. A...

The transient thermoelastic response of thick hollow cylinder made of functionally graded material under thermal loading is studied. The generalized coupled thermoelasticity based on the Green-Lindsay model is used. The thermal and mechanical properties of the functionally graded material are assumed to be varied in the radial direction according to a power law variation as a function of the vo...
