Thermoelastic effect on stress

Input(s)

\(\lambda\): Lame (psi)

\(\delta_{\mathrm{ij}}\): Kronecker Delta (dimensionless)

\(\varepsilon_{00}\): Initial Strain (dimensionless)

G: Modulus of Shear (psi)

\(\varepsilon_{\mathrm{ij}}\): Final Strain (dimensionless)

\(\alpha_{\mathrm{T}}\): Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion \((1 / \mathrm{K})\)

\(\mathrm{P}_{0}\): Pressure Applied (psi)

\(\mathrm{K}\): Bulk Modulus (psi)

\(\Delta \mathrm{T}\): Temperature Difference \((\mathrm{K})\)

Output(s)

\(\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{ij}}\): Stress (psi)

Formula(s)

\[ \mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{ij}}=\lambda * \delta_{\mathrm{ij}} * \varepsilon_{00}+2 * \mathrm{G} * \varepsilon_{\mathrm{ij}}-\alpha_{\mathrm{T}} * \delta_{\mathrm{ij}} * \mathrm{P}_{0}-\mathrm{K} * \alpha_{\mathrm{T}} * \delta_{\mathrm{ij}} * \Delta \mathrm{T} \]
