A two-dimensional problem for a half-space in magneto-thermoelasticity with thermal relaxation Hany H. Sherief *, Kamal A.

Abstract In this work we study a two-dimensional problem in electromagneto-thermoelasticity for a half-space whose surface is subjected to a non-uniform thermal shock and is stress free in the presence of a transverse magnetic field. The problem is in the context of the theory of generalized thermoelasticity with one relaxation time. Laplace and exponential Fourier transform techniques are used to obtain the solution by a direct approach. The solution of the problem in the physical domain is obtained by using a numerical method for the inversion of the Laplace transforms based on Fourier series expansions. The distributions of the temperature, the displacement, the stress and the induced magnetic and electric fields are obtained. The numerical values of these functions are represented graphically.

1. Introduction The theory of generalized thermoelasticity with one relaxation time was introduced by Lord and Shulman [1] for isotropic materials. This theory was extended by Sherief [2] and by Dhaliwal and Sherief [3] to include the effects of anisotropy. In this theory a modified law of heat conduction including both the heat flux and its time derivative replaces the conventional Fourier’s law. The heat equation associated with this theory is a hyperbolic one and hence automatically eliminates the paradox of infinite speeds of propagation inherent in both the uncoupled and the coupled theories of thermoelasticity. For many problems involving steep heat gradients and when short time effects are sought this theory is indispensable.

Due to the complexity of the partial differential equations of this theory, the work done in this field is unfortunately limited in number. Among the theoretical contributions to the subject are the proofs of uniqueness theorems under different conditions by Ignaczak [4,5] and by Sherief [6]. Anwar and Sherief [7] did the state space formulation for problems not containing heat sources and the boundary element formulation was done by Anwar and Sherief [8]. Some concrete problems have also been solved. The fundamental solutions for spherically symmetric spaces were obtained by Sherief [9]. Sherief and Anwar have solved some two-dimensional problems in [10,11], while Sherief and Hamza have solved some two-dimensional problems and studied the wave propagation in this theory in [12,13], respectively. Increasing attention is being devoted to the interaction between magnetic fields and strain in a thermoelastic solid due to its many applications in the fields of geophysics, plasma physics and related topics. In the nuclear field, the extremely high temperatures and temperature gradients as well as the magnetic fields originating inside nuclear reactors influence their design and operations [14]. Usually, in these investigations the heat equation under consideration is taken as the uncoupled or the coupled equation, not the generalized one. This attitude is justified in some situations where the solutions obtained using any of these equations differ little quantitatively. However, when short time effects are considered, the full, generalized system of equations has to be used or a great deal of accuracy is lost [1]. A comprehensive review of the earlier contributions to the subject can be found in [15]. Among the authors who considered the generalized magneto-thermoelastic equations are Nayfeh and Nemat-Nasser [16] who studied the propagation of plane waves in a solid under the influence of an electromagnetic field. They have obtained the governing equations in the general case and the solution for some particular cases. Choudhuri [17] extended these results to rotating media. Sherief [18] has solved a problem for a solid cylinder, while Sherief and Ezzat [19] have solved a thermal shock half-space problem using asymptotic expansions.

2. Formulation of the problem We consider the problem of a thermoelastic half-space (x P 0). A magnetic field with constant intensity H0 acts parallel to the bounding plane (taken as the direction of the z-axis). The surface of the half-space is subjected at time t ¼ 0 to a thermal shock that is a function of y and t. Thus, all the quantities considered will be functions of the time variable t and of the coordinates x and y. Due to the application of the primary magnetic field H0 , there results an induced magnetic field h and an induced electric field E. We assume that both h and E are small in magnitude in accordance with the assumptions of the linear theory of thermoelasticity. Thus, the displacement vector will have the components ux ¼ uðx; y; tÞ;

uy ¼ vðx; y; tÞ;

uz ¼ 0:

The components of the magnetic intensity vector are Hx ¼ 0;

Hy ¼ 0;

Hz ¼ H0 þ hðx; y; tÞ:

The electric intensity vector is normal to both the magnetic intensity and the displacement vectors. Thus, E has the components Ex ¼ E1 ;

Ey ¼ E2 ;

Ez ¼ 0:

The current density vector J must be parallel to E, thus Jx ¼ J1 ;

Let f ðx; q; sÞ be the Laplace–Fourier transform of a function f ðx; y; tÞ. We shall first use the inversion formula of the Fourier transform mentioned above to obtain a function fðx; y; sÞ that is the Laplace transform of the function f ðx; y; tÞ.

Using the above formula to evaluate f ðx; y; tÞ, we introduce a truncation error ET that must be added to the discretization error to produce the total approximation error. Two methods are used to reduce the total error. First, the ‘Korrecktur’ method is used to reduce the discretization error. Next, the e-algorithm is used to reduce the truncation error and therefore to accelerate convergence. The Korrecktur method uses the following formula to evaluate the function f ðx; y; tÞ 0 ; f ðx; y; tÞ ¼ f1 ðx; y; tÞ  e2dL f1 ðx; y; 2L þ tÞ þ ED 0  ED . where the discretization error ED Thus, the approximate value of f ðx; y; tÞ becomes

It can be shown that [20] the sequence e1;1 ; e3;1 ; . . . ; eN ;1 converges to f ðx; y; tÞ þ ED  c0 =2 faster than the sequence of partial sums sm ;

m ¼ 1; 2; 3; . . .

The actual procedure used to invert the Laplace transforms consists of using Eq. (75) together with the e-algorithm. The values of d and L are chosen according the criteria outlined in [20].

where H ðÞ is the Heaviside unit step function and h0 is a constant. This means that heat is applied on the surface of the half-space on a narrow band of width 2a surrounding the y-axis to keep it at temperature h0 , while the rest of the surface is kept at zero temperature. Taking the Laplace and exponential Fourier transforms of both sides of Eq. (76), we get rffiffiffi  2 sinðqaÞ½1  ipqdðqÞ : f ðq; sÞ ¼ h0 p qs

The computations were carried out for two values of time, namely for t ¼ 0:05 and t ¼ 0:15. The non-dimensional temperature h, horizontal displacement u, stress component rxx , induced magnetic field h and induced electric field component E2 distributions were evaluated on the x-axis ðy ¼ 0Þ. They are shown in Figs. 1–5, respectively. Solid lines represent the case when t ¼ 0:15 and dotted lines represent the case when t ¼ 0:05. We note that, due to symmetry, the displacement component v and the induced electric field component E1 vanish identically when y ¼ 0.

The fact that in generalized thermoelasticity, the waves propagate with finite speeds is evident in all these figures. We note that all the functions vanish identically outside some finite interval that changes with the passage of time. For example for t ¼ 0:05, all the functions vanish identically when x > 0:69. This is not the case in coupled thermoelasticity, where the considered function have non-vanishing values for all values of x due to the infinite speed of propagation of heat waves.
