We use the compact harmonic general solutions of transversely isotropic piezothermoelastic materials to construct the three-dimensional Green’s function of a steady point heat source on the surface of a semi-infinite transversely isotropic piezothermoelastic material by four newly introduced harmonic functions. All components of the coupled field are expressed in terms of elementary functions and are convenient to use. Numerical results for cadmium selenide are given graphically by contours.

Plane Of Isotropy

Closed-form solutions are obtained for the Green’s function problems of point forces applied in the interior of a two-phase material consisting of two semi-infinite transversely isotropic elastic media bonded along a plane interface. The interface is parallel to the plane of isotropy of both media. The solutions are applicable to all combinations of elastic constants. The present solution reduces to Sueklo’s expression when the point force is normal to the plane of isotropy and (C11C33)1/2 ≠ C13 + 2C44 for both phases. When the elastic constants of one of the phases are set to zero, the solution can be reduced to the Green’s function for semi-infinite media obtained by Michell, Lekhnitzki, Hu, Shield, and Pan and Chou. The Green’s function solution of Pan and Chou for an infinite transversely isotropic solid can be reproduced from the present expression by setting the elastic constants of both phases to be equal. Finally, the Green’s function for isotropic materials can also be obtained from the present solution by suitable substitution of elastic constants.

Explicit Expressions

Explicit expressions of Green’s function and its derivative for three-dimensional infinite solids are presented in this paper. The medium is allowed to exhibit a fully magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) coupling and general anisotropic behaviour. In particular, new explicit expressions for the first-order derivative of Green’s function are proposed. The derivation combines extended Stroh formalism, Radon transform and Cauchy’s residue theory. In order to cover mathematical degenerate and non-degenerate materials in the Stroh formalism context, a multiple residue scheme is performed. Expressions are explicit in terms of Stroh’s eigenvalues, this being a feature of special interest in numerical applications such as boundary element methods. As a particular case, simplifications for MEE materials with transversely isotropic symmetry are derived. Details on the implementation and numerical stability of the proposed solutions for degenerate cases are studied.
