  4. Abstract:
  5. Thermoelastic damping (TED) is one of the main energy dissipation mechanisms in structures with small scales. On the other hand, the classical continuum theory is not capable of describing the mechanical behavior of small-scale structures. In this paper, small-scale effects on the thermoelastic damping in microplates are studied. To this end, the coupled governing equations of motion and heat conduction are obtained based on the non-classical continuum theory of the modified couple stress and the dual-phase-lag heat conduction model. By solving these coupled equations, an explicit expression including small-scale effects for calculating TED in microplates is derived. The results are compared with those given by the classical continuum and heat transfer theories. In addition, numerical results are presented to investigate the influences of some parameters on TED and critical thickness, such as microplate thickness, aspect ratio, boundary conditions, and the type of material. © 2018, Springer-Verlag GmbH Austria, part of Springer Nature
