Two Temperature Magneto-Thermoelasticity with Initial Stress : State Space Formulation

الملخص EN

Magneto-thermoelastic interactions in an initially stressed isotropic homogeneous elastic half-space with two temperatures are studied using mathematical methods under the purview of the L-S model of linear theory of generalized thermoelasticity.

The formalism deals with the state space approach with the purpose of counteracting the difficulties of handling the displacement potential functions.

Of specific concern here is the propagation of waves owing to ramp type increase in temperature and load.

The medium is considered to be permeated by a uniform magnetic field.

The expressions for different field parameters such as displacement, temperature, strain, and stress in the physical domain are obtained by applying a numerical inversion technique.

Results of some earlier workers have been deduced from the present formulation.

Numerical work is also performed for a suitable material with the aim of illustrating the results.
