Abstract

Abstract : Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to study the thermal and mechanical disturbances in a piezo-electric microstretch thermoelastic medium due to the presence of ultra-short laser pulse as input heat source. Design/methodology/approach: The medium is subjected to normal force, tangential force and thermal source. The solution of the problems is developed in terms of normal modes. Mathematical expressions have been obtained for normal stress, tangential stress, microstress, dielectric displacement vector and temperature change. Findings: The numerically computed results are shown graphically. The effect of time and laser radius on temperature distribution is also shown graphically and comparison to theoretical results has been discussed. A mathematical model has been developed for the system of equations and various stress quantities have been analyzed. Some computer programs have also been written for this study. Two particular cases are also derived from the present investigation. Originality/value: The effect of laser heat source is studied in piezo-electric microstretch thermoelastic medium. It is observed from the figures that the laser heat source has significant role on the values of coupled tangential stress.
