Nonlinear heat transfer and thermo mechanical stress analysis using finite elements.

This thesis deals with the development, implementation and testing of numerical procedures for the heat transfer and thermo-mechanical analysis of sol id continua. Steady state conduction heat transfer is developed as a particular case of the general field equation. Internal heat generation and the...
