The disturbance due to normal force and thermal source in a homogeneous, isotropic generalized thermoelastic medium with two temperatures for the axi-symmetric problem in the context of generalized theories [Lord and Shulman (L-S) theory and Green-Lindsay (G-L) theory] are obtained by applying the Laplace and Hankel transforms. To get the solution in physical form, a numerical inversion technique has been applied. The components of stress, conductive temperature φ and temperature distribution θ are computed numerically and illustrated graphically to compare the results between the two temperature models for L-S and G-L as well as for classical one temperature theory of thermoelasticity. Some special cases are also deduced from the present problem.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
