Abstract
Some possibility of numerical analysis of coupled dynamic problems of linear elastic heat conductors on classical thermoelasticity theory by using the boundary element method is shown in this paper. The boundary integral equation formulation and its numerical implementation of the two-dimensional problem are developed in the manner by the newly derived fundamental solution for the coupled equations of elliptic type in the transformed space and the numerical inversion of Laplace transformation. The boundary element unsteady solutions of the first and second Danilovskaya problems and the Sternberg and Chakravorty problem in the half-space are demonstrated through comparison with the existing solutions.
