Thermal stresses problem in non-homogeneous transversely isotropic infinite circular cylinder

摘要

This paper presents a general treatment of the transient thermal stresses of a non-homogeneous infinite circular cylinder subject to certain boundary conditions. A finite difference predictor–corrector scheme uses a relation from characteristic theory at the inner and outer radii is used to obtain solutions for the non-homogeneous infinite cylinder. The system of fundamental equations is solved by means of a finite difference method and numerical calculation are carried out for the temperature, the components of displacement and the components of stresses with τ and through the thickness of the cylinder. The results indicate that the effect of inhomogeneity is very pronounced.
