CYLINDRICAL SHELL OF FINITE LENGTH WITH LOW SHEAR STIFFNESS UNDER THE ACTION OF LOCAL HEAT SOURCES

摘要

We consider a quasistatic problem of thermoelasticity for a cylindrical shell of finite length in a variable temperature field. The surface of the shell exchanges heat with the ambient medium of constant temperature according to Newton's law. The problem is solved with regard for the shear strains. The asymptotic state of the shell in which the computed quantities attain their maximal values is studied in detail. We also perform the comparative analysis of the thermoelastic state of the shell of finite length and the corresponding state of a shell of infinite length.
