Abstract

Using the Green function, the boundary integral formula and natural boundary integral equation for thermal elastic problems are obtained. Then based on bending solutions to circular plates subjected to the non-axi- symmetrical load, by utilizing the Fourier series and convolution formulae, the bending solutions under non-axisymmetrical thermal conditions have been obtained. The calculating process is simple. Examples show the discussed methods are effective.

Summary

Introduction

Due to the complexity of the thermoelasticity problems, analytic solutions can be obtained only for axisymmetrical problems and problems [1,2,3,4,5,6]. For general non-axisymmetrical loads and general non-axisymmetrical boundary conditions, the numerical computation is the main method [7,8,9]. For bending problems of solid circular plates, Fu Bao-lian adopted the reciprocal theorem and took the solution of the clamped circular plate as the basic solution to discuss some bending solutions under axis-symmetrical loads [10]. Yu De-hao discussed bending problems of plates with the natural boundary element method [13,14]. Li Shun-cai discussed the bending problems of solid circular plates under the boundary loads [15,16,17]. On the basis of the same method, using Fourier series and several convolution formulae, the boundary integral formula and natural boundary integral equation for the thermal bending of circular plates are obtained.
