Abstract
The present work aims to investigate the effect of the gravitational field on a two-dimensional thermoelastic medium influenced by thermal loading due to a laser pulse. The bounding plane surface is heated by a non-Gaussian laser beam. The problem is discussed under Green–Naghdi theory with and without energy dissipation. The normal mode analysis method is used to get the expressions for the physical quantities. The results are illustrated graphically.
