Abstract

Within the framework of the linear theory of thermoelasticity, the problem of circularly cylindrical layered media subjected to an arbitrary point heat source is considered and solved in this paper. Based on the method of analytical continuation in conjunction with the alternating technique, the solutions to heat conduction and thermoelasticity problems for a three-phase multilayered cylinder are first derived. A rapid convergent series solution for both the temperature and stress functions, which is expressed in terms of an explicit general term of the complex potential of the corresponding homogeneous problem, is obtained in an elegant form. Numerical results are provided for some particular examples to investigate the effect of material combinations on the interfacial stresses.
