Abstract
A fractional Cattaneo model for studying the thermoelastic response for a finite thick circular plate with source function is considered. The thick plate is subjected to radiation-type boundary conditions on the upper and lower surfaces, and its curved surface is kept at zero temperature. The theory of integral transformations is used to solve the generalized fractional Cattaneo-type, classical Cattaneo-Vernotte and Fourier heat conduction model. The analytical expressions of displacement components using thermoelastic displacement potentials; and thermal-stress distribution are computed and depicted graphically. The effects of the fractional-order parameter and the relaxation time on the temperature fields and their thermal stresses are investigated. The findings show that the higher the fractional-order parameter, the higher the thermal response. The greater the relaxation period, the longer the heat flux propagates on thick structures.
