In this work, a generalized solution for the thermoelastic plane wave in a semi-infinite solid induced by pulsed laser heating is developed. The solution takes into account the non-Fourier effect in heat conduction and the coupling effect between temperature and strain rate, which play significant roles in ultrashort pulsed laser heating. Based on this solution, calculations are conducted to st...

Initially saturated, cementitious materials are subject to water movements that responsible for multiple phenomena. Among them, there drying shrinkage, creep, fluid transport, swelling reactions and cracking-induced changes in mechanical properties. The main objective of this study is therefore investigate the impact on behaviour materials. For we carried out two 70-day studies material EDF’s V...

The theory of generalized thermoelastic diffusion, based on the theory of Lord and Shulman, is used to study the thermoelastic-diffusion interactions in an infinitely long solid cylinder subjected to a thermal shock on its surface which is in contact with a permeating substance. By means of the Laplace transform and numerical Laplace inversion the problem is solved. Numerical results predict fi...

In this paper, the vibrations of thin plate in modified couple stress thermoelastic medium by using Kirchhoff- Love plate theory has been investigated. The governing equations of motion and heat conduction equation for Lord Shulman (L-S) [1] theory are written with the help of Kirchhoff- Love plate theory. The thermoelastic damping of micro-beam resonators is analyzed by using the normal mode a...

The thermomechanical properties of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) such as elastic modulus, thermal conductivity, and coefficient of thermal expansions are determined by pores, cracks, and splat boundaries, which affect the thermoelastic properties of thermally grown oxide (TGO) layer and the fracture behavior in TBCs. The thermoelastic characteristics thus have been investigated through mathem...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper was to study the combined effect of hygro and thermo-mechanical behavior on a plastic encapsulated micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) package during the reflow process after exposed to a humid environment for a prolonged time. Plastic encapsulated electronic packages absorb moisture when they are subjected to humid ambient conditions. Design/methodology/...

this paper presents a nonlinear model of a clamped-clamped microbeam actuated by an electrostatic load with stretching and thermoelastic effects. the frequency of free vibration is calculated by discretization based on the differential quadrature (dq) method. by separating the real and imaginary parts of frequency, the quality factor of thermoelastic damping is calculated. both the stretching a...

[1] It is known that GPS time series contain a seasonal variation that is not due to tectonic motions, and it has recently been shown that crustal seismic velocities may also vary seasonally. In order to explain these changes, a number of hypotheses have been given, among which thermoelastic and hydrology‐induced stresses and strains are leading candidates. Unfortunately, though, since a genera...
