Zusammenfassung: | It is shown within the framework of the linear theory of thermoelasticity that, for thermal radiation conditions at the boundary, pure compressional and flexural modes of motion cannot exist in a traction-free plate. Rigorously, the modes become uncoupled only for the special cases of isothermal and adiabatic boundary conditions; approximately, however, they are uncoupled even in the general case if the analysis is confined to the lowest-order terms in the small dimensionless frequency associated with such problems. Then the motions represent generalizations of the classical Rayleigh-Lamb waves. The effect of thermal conductivity is to reduce the phase velocity and introduce dissipation, and it is noticeable primarily for long waves. |
