Abstract:
This study develops a new theoretical framework by combining Eringen's nonlocal elasticity model with the Lord-Shulman (LS) theory of generalized thermo electricity. The resulting field equations and constitutive relations are used to analyze the propagation of planar thermoelastic waves in an isotropic, homogeneous, nonlocal thermoelastic material. The analysis reveals two coupled longitudinal wave modes and a distinct shear-type wave. The presence of nonlocality leads to dispersive and attenuating behavior for all wave types. Notably, the shear wave always exhibits a critical frequency, while the longitudinal waves may experience one conditionally. Furthermore, the reflection of thermo elastic waves is investigated for longitudinal waves incident on a stress-free, thermally insulated boundary in a half-space.
