Abstract

The thermoelastic problem associated with a point heat source embedded in an anisotropic body containing an elliptic hole or a rigid inclusion is considered in this paper. By using the formalism of Stroh [1], the approach of analytic function continuation and the technique of conformal mapping, the expression for the temperature, displacements and stress functions is expressed in explicit matrix form. The present derived solutions are also valid for some special problems such as a crack or a rigid line inclusion if one lets the minor axis of the ellipse approach to zero. The stress intensity factors induced by a point heat source are also obtained.
