Influence of various sources in micropolar thermoelastic medium with voids

Rajneesh Kumar and Praveen Ailawalia

Abstract

The present problem is concerned with the study of deformation of micropolar thermoelastic medium with voids under the influence of various sources acting on the plane surface. The analytic expressions of displacement components, force stress, couple stress, change in volume fraction field and temperature distribution are obtained in the transformed domain for Lord-Shulman (L-S) theory of thermoelasticity after applying the integral transforms. A numerical inversion technique has been applied to obtain the solution in the physical domain. The numerical results are presented graphically. Some useful particular cases have also been deduced.

Key Words

micropolar thermoelastic solid; voids; couple stress; thermoelasticity; integral transform.
