Eigen value approach to generalized thermoelastic interactions in an unbounded body with circular cylindrical cavity without energy dissipation

The theory of generalized thermoelasticity in the context of the Green-Naghdi model -II (thermoelasticity without energy dissipation) is studied for an infinite circular cylindrical cavity subjected to two different cases of thermoelastic interactions when the radial stress is zero for (a) maintaining constant temperature and (b) temperature is varying exponentially with time. The Laplace transform from time variable is used to the governing equations to formulate a vector matrix differential equation which is then solved by the eigen value approach. Numerical computations for the displacement component, temperature distribution and components of thermal stress have been made and presented graphically.
