Computer Implementation of the DRBEM for Studying the Generalized Thermo Elastic Responses of Functionally Graded Anisotropic Rotating Plates with Two Relaxation Times

Abstract

A numerical computer model based on the dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) is extended to study the generalized thermoelastic responses of functionally graded anisotropic rotating plates. In the case of plane deformation, a predictor-corrector implicit-explicit time integration algorithm was developed and implemented for use with the DRBEM to obtain the solution for the displacement and temperature fields in the context of the Lord and Shulman theory. Numerical results that demonstrate the validity of the proposed method are also presented in the tables. 2010 Mathematics subject classification: 74B05 74E05 74F05 74H05 74S20
