Elastodynamical disturbances due to laser irradiation in a microstretch thermoelastic medium with microtemperatures

Abstract This research is concerned with the study of mechanical disturbances due to presence of ultra-short laser pulse as input heat source in a microstretch thermoelastic medium with microtemperatures. The medium is subjected to normal and tangential forces. The solution of the problems is developed in terms of normal modes. Mathematical expressions have been obtained for normal stress, tangential stress, microstress and temperature change. The numerically computed results are shown graphically. A mathematical model has been developed and various stress quantities have been analyzed. Some particular cases are also derived from the present investigation.
