Abstract

The plane stress boundary value problem of quasi-static linear orthotropic thermoelasticity is discussed. The thermoelastic system on a bounded simply-connected domain is decoupled. The decoupled temperature equation is investigated by using accurate estimation and the contraction mapping principle. Representations of solutions of the field equation are obtained, and some solvability results are proved. The results are of both theoretical and numerical interest.
