In this work, we constructed the equations of generalized thermoelasticity of a homogeneous isotropic hollow cylinder. The formulation is applied in the context of the Green and Naghdi theory of types II and III. The material of the cylinder is assumed to be homogeneous isotropic both mechanically and thermally. The problem has been solved numerically using a finite-element method. Numerical results for the temperature distribution, displacement, radial stress, and hoop stress are represented graphically. Comparisons are made with the results predicted by the types II and III. The results obtained in this paper can be used to design various homogeneous thermoelastic elements under thermal load to meet special engineering requirements.
