Abstract
Solids usually show complex material behavior. If deformation is finite, the description of the kinematics makes the mechanical model complicated. In fact, one of the basic questions in the formulation and analysis procedures of finite deformation thermoelasticity is: "How can the finite deformation thermoelasticity response be best accounted for in the kinematic formulation?" A rather attractive way to proceed is to use the approach of small strain analysis, and decompose the total strain into a mechanical part and a thermal part. In this paper, based on the multiplicative decomposition of the deformation gradient, the mechanical and thermal strains are defined in the power and exponential...
