A Green-Naghdi Model in a 2D Problem of a Mode I Crack in an Isotropic Thermoelastic Plate

Аннотация

In this article, the generalized thermoelastic theory under Green and Naghdi models are used to study the thermoelastic interaction in an isotropic material containing a finite crack inside the material. The crack boundary is due to a prescribed temperature and stress distribution. Based on the Green-Naghdi type II and type III models, the formulation is applied to generalized thermoelasticity with an appropriate choice of parameters. Numerical solutions of the displacement components, temperature, and stress components are obtained using the finite element method. The results have been verified numerically and are represented graphically. Comparisons were made with expected results from Green and Naghdi model of type III and Green and Naghdi model of type II.
