Abstract
This work presents novel three-dimensional solutions for the multiphysics response of magneto-electro-elastic multilayered plates with interfacial imperfections in a thermal environment. The Stroh formalism is employed, incorporating thermal coupling with the Eringen nonlocal theory to capture small-scale effects. The laminated structures are simply supported and subjected to time-harmonic temperature distributions and extended tractions represented using Fourier series expansions. The dual variable and position technique is used to address the challenges posed by non-ideal thermal and mechanical bonded contacts between constituents, ensuring the consistency and stability of the recursive field relations. A wide range of application examples are analyzed, including the influence of material arrangements, aspect ratio and nonlocal length characteristics, elastically compliant and thermally/dielectrically weakly conducting interfaces, as well as forced vibrations in combined thermo-mechanical environments. The comprehensive results shed light on the intricate multiphysics response of multilayered structures and provide valuable insights into practical engineering implications for advanced materials and structures.
