✦ Synopsis

The present paper is concerned with the investigation of disturbances in a homogeneous, isotropic elastic medium with generalized thermoelastic diffusion. The formulation is applied to the generalized thermoelasticity based on the Green and Naghdi (GN) theory under the effect of diffusion. The analytical expressions for displacement components, stresses, temperature field, concentration and chemical potential are obtained in the physical domain by using the normal mode analysis. These expressions are calculated numerically for a copper-like material and depicted graphically. Effect of presence of diffusion is analyzed theoretically and numerically. Comparisons are made with the results predicted by the type II and type III in the presence and absence of diffusion.
