Temperature and Displacement Discontinuity Boundary Element Method for Analysis of Cracks in Three-Dimensional Isotropic Thermoelastic Media

Extended Displacement Discontinuity Boundary Integral Equation Method for Analysis of Cracks in Smart Materials

A brief summary of the explicit versions of the GS4 algorithms and designs has been shown via the implicit counterparts. All explicit time integration schemes are second-order time accurate, and various common schemes are also included within the present frameworks. An i Integration Framework (Isochronous Integration Framework) is also described which employs the same framework for integrating ...

Three-dimensional Free Vibration Analysis of a Transversely Isotropic Thermoelastic Diffusive Cylindrical Panel

The present paper is aimed to study an exact analysis of the free vibrations of a simply supported, homogeneous, transversely isotropic, cylindrical panel based on three-dimensional generalized theories of thermoelastic diffusion. After applying the displacement potential functions in the basic governing equations of generalized thermoelastic diffusion, it is noticed that a purely transverse mo...

A General Boundary-Integral Formulation for Zoned Three-Dimensional Media

A new boundary-integral formulation is proposed to analyze the heat transfer in zoned three-dimensional geometries. The proposed formulation couples the boundary formula, the gradient of the boundary formula, and the exterior formula. An advantage of this formulation over the traditional methods is that any linear condition at the interface between subdomains may be incorporated into the formul...
