Abstract

The equations of generalized thermoelasticity with one relaxation time with variable modulus of elasticity and the thermal conductivity were used to solve a problem of an infinite material with a spherical cavity. The inner surface of the cavity was taken to be traction free and acted upon by a thermal shock to the surface. Laplace transforms techniques were used to obtain the solution by a direct approach. The inverse Laplace transforms was obtained numerically. The temperature, displacement and stress distributions are represented graphically.
