Two-dimensional Green's functions for semi-infinite isotropic thermoelastic plane

Based on the two-dimensional steady-state governing equations of isotropic thermoelastic material and the compact general solution expressed in three harmonic functions, the corresponding three harmonic functions contain nine undetermined constants are constructed for a line heat source applied in the interior of a semi-infinite thermoelastic plane. All components of thermoelastic field in the semi-infinite plane can be derived by substituting the harmonic functions into the general solution. And the undetermined constants can be obtained by the compatibility conditions, equilibrium conditions and the different boundary conditions for extended Mindlin problem and extended Lorentz problem. Thus, the Green's functions in above two cases are obtained, and the numerical results are given graphically by contours.
