ABSTRACT
This paper concerns the application of the finite-element
method to the solution of certain nonlinear problems in thermoelas-
ticity. Numerical solutions of transient, coupled thermoelasticity
problems involving bodies which exhibit material nonlinearities and
temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and specific heat are
presented. General equations of motion and heat conduction of an
arbitrary finite element are reduced so as to apply to the problem of
transient response of a nonlinear thermoelastic half space subjected
to a time-dependent temperature over its boundary.

INTRODUCTION
It is widely known that many physical properties of common
Innterials are dependent on temperature. A casual glance at any good.' I
handbook on physical properties of materials, for example, will show
that quanti ties such as specific heat, therma I conductivity, thermal
l'xpansion coefficients, etc., which are treated as constants in classi-
cal theories, may change significantly with a change in temperature.
The description of the behavior of such materials becomes further com-
plicated if it is also recognized that their ability to conduct heat
may be dependent on deformation. Indeed, the interconvertibility of
mechanical work and heat was recognized long ago by Joule; hence, it
is reasonable to take into account the effects of temperature in the
equations of motion of a body and to include the effects of motion in
the equations of heat conduction.
Experimental observations indicate that many thermomechanical
phenomena associated with fairly common materials are decidedly non-
linear in nature. As such, their analytical description falls well
outside the scope of the classical theory of thermoelasticity. Reiner
[1] proposed a nonlinear stress-strain law for a limited class of
thermoelastic solids and Jindra [2] used a perturbation procedure to
solve a problem in static, uncoupled thermoelasticity wherein certain
material nonlinearities were assumed. Recognizing that many materials
exhibit deviations from standard linear constitutive laws even for
infinitesimal strains, Dillon [3] developed a theory which included
mild material nonlinearities by retaining certain higher-order terms
in a series expansion of the free energy density. Dillon studied the
influence of nonlinear terms in the deviatoric strains by calculating
the temperature generated in a circular bar subjected to prescribed
time-dependent twisting .

(hying to the extreme mathematical difficulties usually involved
in treating nonlinear ('quations, no analytical solutions to nonlinear
bOllndary-and initial value problems in dynamic-coupled thermoelasticity
"I'pear to he avai lab Ie. It is natura I, therefore, to consider numeri-
cal methods for solving such problems. This is the viewpoint adopted
in the present investigation.
This paper is concerned with the application of the finite-element
concept to the analysis of class of nonlinear problems in dynamic-
coupled thermoelasticity. After a brief review of certain fundamental
equa tions governing the behavior of thermoelastic so lids, we present
rather general coupled equations of motion and heat conduction for a
typical elwnent of a discrete model of the continuum. The form of
the free energy function and the constitutive equation for heat flux
is not specified in these equations; nor are restrictions imposed on
magnitudes of the displacement gradients. We then obtain special
forms of these equations by assuming infinitesimal strains. expanding
the free energy in a power series, and retaining terms of higher order
than the second, in the manner described by Dillon [3J. We also account
for temperature dependent specific heat and thermal conductivity,the
latter being incorporated in a nonlinear version of Fourier's law where-
in the thermal conductivity i8 assumed to be a linear function of temp-
erature. By linearizing these equations, we show that the finite-
element models of Nickell and Sackman [4] and Oden and Kross [5] are
obtained.
To demonstrate the influence of various nonlinearities, we then
consider applications of the theory to selected problems for which
solutions to the linearized problem are known. In particular. we
solve several nonlinear versions of the coupled Danilovskaya problem
[6J, which involves the transient response of a thermoelastic half-space

nubjected to a time-dependent temperature field applied uniformly over
its plane boundary. This problem was solved using linear theory by
St~rnberg and Chakravorty [7J; numerical solutions of the linearized
rrohl~m have also been presented [4, 5J. Our results indicate that
material nonlinearities, as manifested by nonlinear dilatational terms
ill the constitutive equation for stress, temperature-dependent thermal
conductivity, and temperature-dependent specific heat, may lead to
significant differences from the linear theories. Parametric studies
are performed in those cases in which insufficient experimental data
is available to estimate the relative magnitudes of higher-order ma-
terial constants. The present finite-element formulation of the prob-
lem leads to several hundred simultaneous nonlinear first- and second-
order differential equations in the nodal values of displacements and
temperatures. These are solved by a Runga-Kutta-Gill integration scheme.
NONLINEAR T1IERMOELASTICITY
Consider a deformable, thermoelastic continuum under the action
of a general system of external forces and prescribed temperatures.
The reference configuration Co is ideally selected to correspond to a
natural unstrained state and to be at a uniform temperature To. To
trace the motion of the continuum and its variations in temperature,
we introduce a system of intrinsic coordinates Xl which are rectangular
cartesian at T = O. T being a time parameter. At T = t > 0, cartesian
coordinates of a particle Xi are denoted Xl and the temperature at Xl
is To + T(Xi, t), where T(Xi, t) is the temperature change. The rela-
tions Xi = Xi(X1• X2, X3, t) describe the motion of the body.
The thermomechanical behavior of the continuum must be such that
the following physical laws are satisfied locally at every particle t:

FINITE-ELEMENT MODELS
We shall now outline the development of general discrete models
of thermoelastic behavior obased on the finite-element concept. Follow-
ing the usual procedure, we view the continuum as a collection of a
finite number of component parts called finite elements, which are
connected continuously together. Ordinarily, the elements are of
relatively simple geometric shapes (e.g., tetnahedra, prisms, quadri-
laterals, triangles, etc.) and the connectivity of the model is

modified forms of the energy balances (8) and (9) and require that
the results hold for arbitrary nodal values UNI and TN' In this way
we obtain general equations of motion and heat conduction for a typical

CONSTITUTIVE EQUATIONS FOR THERMOELASTIC SOLIDS

Obviously we can obtain many forms of the free energy function by
simply adding or deleting terms in (22). For example, an incompressible

Dillon [3J observed that for <l material under oscillating dilita-

body is worked heat is generated which is not completely dissipated.

We now turn to the problem of identifying the constitutive

temperature. With this in mind we introduce a modified Fourier

THE ELASTIC HALF SPACE PROBLEM
(36)
I (37)
At present, detailed studies of practical problems in nonlinear
thermoelasticity are handicapped by the lack of experimental data
for real materials on the magnitudes of the constants a3- alS' To
demonstrate the influence of various nonlinear terms in (31) we
have chosen to investigate nonlinear versions of the Danilouskaya
[6J problem for which comparable solutions of the linearized prob-
lem are known. The particular example considered involves a
materially nonlinear elastic half space subjected to a linear time
dependent change in temperature over the entire boundary which is
13
assumed to be initially stress free. After a specified change in
temperature has occurred the temperature is held constant over the
sur face.
The linearized version of this type ramp heating problem was
first investigated by Sternberg and Chakravorty [7J for the thermo-
elastically uncoupled case. Solutions for the coupled case were
obtained by Nickell and Sackman [4] and Oden and Kross [5] through
finite element techniques.
Consider a materially nonlinear elastic half space (x, ~ 0)
constrained to only uniaxial motion characterized by the displace-
ment field

subjected to a uniformly distributed ramp heating of the form

T1 = Tr to ~ t < 00
where T1
is the in~tial surface temperature Tr is the final surface
temperature, and to is the rise time of the boundary temperature.
Since the body is assumed to be initially at rest, the displacements
and stresses resulting from the temperature field T are governed1
by the initial conditions

by a free energy function of the form given in (31). Since the body
is constrained to only uniaxial motion the second and third strain
invariants vanish reducing (31) to

NUMERICAL RESULTS
Numerical results showing the influence of thermOtnechanical
coupling, material nonlincarities, and temperature dependent specuic
heat and thermal conductivity in the solution of the half space
problem are presented in figures 1 - 8.
Solutions of the finite element differential equations (45) -
(48) were obtained by a Runge-Kutta-Gill integration scheme. In
16
the solutions the maSHCH and tumpcratures of each element were
lumped at the nodes in order to uncouple the elemental accelera-
tion and timc rate of temperature changc terms. This method of
approximation proved very satisfactory for a large number of ele-
ments and is illustrated in Figs. land 2 which contain numerical
results for the linearized material as well as the "exact" solu-
tions [lOJ. Figures I and 2 contain the dimensionless temperature
e and displacement U at 1= 1.0 with the thermomechanical coupling
parameter 6 = 0.0 and 6 - 1.0 as a function of dimensionless time
C for the cases Cn = 1.0 and C = 0.25 respectively. These results
werc obtained using a fifty element model having 10 elements between
the 1:0 unding sur face and 1= i. O.
A qualitative description of the effect of material nonlineari-
ties in the half space are illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4. These data
were generated using the same fifty element model for a material
having Q = 0.0, 6 = 1.0 for the caSe '0 = 1.0. It should be noted
that a coupling parameter of the magnitude used represents a high
degree of thermomechanical coupling for metallic materials. The
influence of the non-linearitics introduced by the as and a13 terms
on the heat conduction equation must be transmitted through this
coupling term. The magnitudes of these terms in (45) - (48), which
when non-dimensionalized according to (49), are denoted As and A13.
Figure 3 shows variations in temperature at i = 1.0 as a function
of C for the four cases: Au = 0.05, A13 = 0.0; A6= 0.25, A13= 0.0;
As = 0.0, A13 = 0.05; A6 = 0.0, A13 = 0.05. Figure 4 depicts the
variation in displacement at t = 1.0 versus time for the same four
cases. Very little variation in the temperature is observed for
17
A_ = A 3 = 0.05. For the case A = 0.25 no significant departureo 1 ,;
from the linear theory occurs until , ~ 1.2. This is due to the
fact that this non-linearity manifests itsclf only in terms of
second order in the displacements and apparently requires a rather
large value for As in order to influencc the temperature equations.
The effect of the A13 is much more pronounced in the temperature
variations due to the fact that it appears in the elemental heat
conduction equations as well as in the equations of motion. The
temperature variations become apparent at , ~ 0.8 for A13
~ 0.25.
Noticeable deviations in the displacements occur at , = 1.0 for both
the At; and A13 terms and increase significantly with time. For

and is of the form

cribed in the derivation of Eqs. (45) - (48) , it is included for
coefficients of specific heat and thcrmal conductivity for a
in this examplc problem.

According to [ll] , the relation (51) accurately describes
the variation in specific heat with temperature obtained experi-
menta lly for both iron and a luminum between the range of 00 to
4000
centigrade. Using the value of Co for iron at 00 centigrade
[11] the corresponding value calculated in (51) for e had an in-
significant effect on the temperatures or displacements at Jl= l.O.
The results displaying the influence of S shown in Figs. 5 and 6
were obtained using the specific heat of iron at 00 centigrade
with 8 = 0.25 and B = O. I for E: = 0.0. For this case 13 = 0.1 ap-
proxi~ately doubles tIlemagnitude c and B = 0.25 increases c byn n
approximately 250 percent for a change in temperature of T = 1.0.
Similarly the value e calculated from experimental data (l2J for
iron has essentially no effect on the temperatures or displacements
at ~ = 1.0 for the case for the linearized material with B = O. The
cases shown in Figs. 5 and 6 correspond to € = - 0.1 and -0.25 which
represent a ten and twenty-five percent decrease in thermal conduc-
tivity respectively for T = 1.0. It should be noted that negative
values of E: are used because experimental data indicates that
thermal conductivity decreases with increases in temperature for
certain metallic materials such as iron [12J. The results indicate
that effective values of E: and B decrease the temperatures in the
material. These temperative effects are transmitted into the
equations of motion through the thermomechanical coupling para-
meter and tend to dampen the displacements at ~ = 1.0.
Figures 7-8 display the combined quantitative effects
of the nonlinear terms As and A13' and the temperature dependent
thermal conductivity and specific heat on the response of the
material to ramp heating with ~ = 1.0. The cases shown are:
·:1:
0.25; S = E:
19
0; An = A13 = 0; 3 = 0.25, € = -0.25;
A13 = 8 = 0.25, € -0.25. W~ note that experimental data
indicate that the values of lc; and A used in this study are very
unrcalistil: for metallic l1lat~rials. Also, the values used for
the An, and A ~ t~rms an' thought to indicate a much larger in-, 1 .:<
fluence on the response of a metallic material than actually
exists in nature.

This paper concerns the application of the finite-element method to the
solution of certain nonlinear problems in thermoelasticity. Numerical solutions
of transient, coupled thermoelasticity problems involving bodies which exhibit
material nonlinearities and temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and
specific heat are presented. General equations of motion and heat conduction
of an arbitrary finite element are reduced so as to apply to the problem of
transient response of a nonlinear thermoelastic half space subjected to a time-
dependent temperature over its boundary.
