Abstract
The present paper deals with the determination of temperature, displacement and thermal stresses in a thick (𝑀 ≠ 0) circular plates. A thick circular plate is subjected to arbitrary known interior temperature under steady state, the fixed circular edge of a circular plate are thermally insulated and lower surface of thick circular plate is at zero temperature. Here we compute the effects of Michell’s function on the thickness of circular plate by considering the comparative study of thick and thin circular plate in terms of stresses along radial direction and modify Kulkarni (2008). The governing heat conduction equation has been solved by the method of integral transform technique. The results are obtained in a series form in terms of Bessel’s functions. The results for stresses have been computed numerically and illustrated graphically.
Keywords: Thermal stresses, inverse problem, thick(M ≠ 0) circular plate, thin(M = 0) circular plate.
