DISTURBANCES IN A GENERALIZED THERMOELASTIC HALF-SPACE WITH VOIDS AND MICROTEMPERATURES DUE TO A MECHANICAL FORCE

The two-dimensional deformation of a generalized thermoelastic half-space with voids and microtemperatures under the action of a mechanical force was investigated. The eff ect of the voids and microtemperatures in this half-space on the displacements, the stresses, the temperature distribution, the change in the volume fraction fi eld, and the fi rst heat fl ux momentum in it was determined on the basis of the normal-mode analysis with the use of the Lord–Shulman and Green–Lindsay theories for an insulated boundary.
