Mechanical/Thermal Sources in a Micropolar Thermoelastic Medium Possessing Cubic Symmetry without Energy Dissipation

The present problem is concerned with the study of the deformation of a thermoelastic micropolar solid possessing cubic symmetry under the influence of various sources acting on the plane surface. The analytic expressions of displacement components, microrotation, force stress, couple stress, and temperature distribution are obtained in the physical domain for the Green and Nagdhi (G–N) theory of thermoelasticity by applying the iIntegral transforms. A numerical inversion technique has been applied to obtain the solution in the physical domain. The numerical results are preseInted graphically for a particular material
