The Effect of Initial Stress on Thermoelastic Rotating Medium with Voids Due to Laser Pulse Heating with Energy Dissipation

Abstract

This article reports studies on the rotation of initially stressed thermoelastic medium with voids subjected to thermal loading due to laser pulse. The bounding plane surface is heated by a non-Gaussian laser beam. The medium rotated with a uniform angular velocity. The problem was studied in the context of Green-Naghdi (G-N) theory of types II and III using the normal mode analysis method. The comparisons between the both types II and III of (G-N) theory in the presence and the absence of the rotation, the initial stress and for two values of time for considered medium are shown graphically.
