The dynamic response of a homogeneous, isotropic, thermoelastic half-space with voids subjected to time harmonic normal force and thermal source is investigated by applying the Fourier transform. The displacements, stresses, temperature distribution, and change in volume fraction field obtained in the physical domain are computed numerically and illustrated graphically. The numerical results of these quantities for magnesium crystal-like material are illustrated to depict the voids effect for the theory of coupled thermoelasticity and uncoupled thermoelasticity for an insulated boundary and temperature gradient boundary.

The present investigation is concerned with the deformation of a fibre-reinforced, anisotropic, generalized thermoelastic medium subjected to mechanical and thermal sources acting on the plane surface. Close-form solutions for stresses and temperature distribution are derived using Laplace transforms for time and Fourier transforms for space. As an application of the approach concentrated, uniformly distributed, and linearly distributed sources are taken. A numerical inversion technique is applied to obtain the solution in the physical domain. Effects of anisotropy and thermal relaxation are shown graphically on the resulting quantities.

The present investigation is concerned with the effect of two temperatures on reflection coefficients in a micropolar thermoelastic solid half space. With two relaxation times, reflection of plane waves impinging obliquely at a plane interface of the micropolar generalized thermoelastic solid half space with two temperatures is investigated. The incident wave is assumed to be striking at the plane surface after propagating through the micropolar generalized thermoelastic solid with two temperatures. Amplitude ratios of the various reflected waves are obtained in closed form and it is found that these are functions of angle of incidence, frequency and are affected by the elastic properties of the media. The effect of two temperatures is shown on these amplitude ratios for a specific model.
