Abstract
This chapter provides various constitutive laws for the most widely used materials in the analysis of thermal structures. In particular, the stress-strain relationships of isotropic, orthotropic, anisotropic and functionally graded materials are proposed. In the latter case, temperature-dependent materials for different types of FGMs are presented. The constitutive law for the RMVT case is also derived. Finally, after defining the Gibbs free-energy and thermo-mechanical enthalpy density, the constitutive equations for thermoelastic problems are obtained.
