Abstract

A new unified formulation for the generalized theories of the coupled thermoelasticity based on the Lord–Shulman, Green–Lindsay, and Green–Naghdi models is proposed in this paper. The unified form of the governing equations is presented by introducing the unifier parameters. The formulations are derived and given for the anisotropic heterogeneous materials. The unified equations are reduced for the isotropic and homogeneous materials. Transforming the governing equations into the Laplace domain, they are analytically solved in the space domain for a hollow sphere and cylinder, where a parameter is introduced to consolidate the solution for the sphere and cylinder in a unified form. A thermal shock load is applied to the inner surface of the sphere and cylinder and the results are presented using a numerical inversion technique of the Laplace transform. The results are validated with the known data in the literature.
