Abstract

A new model of the equations of generalized thermovisco-elasticity for a thermally, isotropic and electrically conducting half-space solid whose surface is subjected to a thermal shock is given. The formulation is applied to the generalized thermoelasticity based on the Green and Lindsay (GL) theory under the effect of rotation, where there is an initial magnetic field parallel to the plane boundary of the half-space. The medium is deformed because of thermal shock and due to the application of the magnetic field, it results an induced magnetic and electric fields in the medium. The normal mode analysis is used to obtain the expressions for the variables considered. The distributions of temperature, displacement, stress, induced magnetic and electric fields are represented graphically. Comparisons are made with the results predicted by the coupled theory (CD) in the presence and absence of rotation.
