TRANSIENT THERMOELASTICITY BY MULTIPLE RECIPROCITY METHOD Available to Purchase

This paper presents a boundary element formulation for transient uncoupled thermoelasticity employing a multiple reciprocity method (MRM) approximation for calculating the thermal stress field. An intermediate step, which involves curve fitting, is necessary for processing the results of the heat conduction analysis into a form suitable for the MRM. Numerical results are included which validate the present technique.
