Sommario

Questo lavoro esamina la distribuzione di temperatura e lo spostamento che, in un solido elastico infinito, risultano dall'applicazione simultanea di un disturbo termico e una piccola perturbazione dovuta ad un campo magnetico applicato. Si dimostra che l'effetto del fattore di accoppiamento magnetotermico è di diminuire l'ampiezza dello spostamento e della variazione di temperatura. Per semplificare si usu il metodo delle trasformazioni di similitudine e di conseguenza le equazioni che reggono il problema risultano automaticamente adimensionali. Si è fatto uso del pacchetto ISML per l'inversione numerica della trasformata di Laplace al fine di confermare i risultati analitici sopra indicati. Il metodo è una sempliflcazione considerevole di quello di Paria (Rif. 11) e fornisce grafici sia dello spostamento sia della temperatura.

Summary

This paper examines temperature distribution and displacement in an infinite elastic solid resulting from the simultaneous application of a thermal disturbance and a small perturbation due to an applied magnetic field. It is shown that the presence of the magneto-thermal coupling factor is to decrease the magnitude of the displacement as well as the magnitude of the temperature distribution. The method of similarly transformations is used for simplification and as a result the governing equations are nondimensionalized automatically. The ISML package for Numerical Inversion of Laplace Transform has been used to confirm the analytical results obtained above. The method is a considerable simplification of that by Paria [Ref. 11] and provides graphs of both displacement and temperature.
