Abstract
A three‐dimensional (3D) thermoelastic stress analysis is carried out on a single crystal with axisymmetric geometry but with a hexagonal crystallographic symmetry. The crystallographic orientation is off‐axis with respect to the cylindrical coordinate system. By applying a Fourier series expansion with respect to the rotational angle ϕ of the cylindrical coordinates, the 3D boundary value problem is reduced to a sequence of 2D ones on the meridian plane, which are solved by the finite‐element method. In our example, the off‐axis orientation is towards a direction of high symmetry, and therefore only four of the six stress tensor components are non‐zero. In the end, the stress tensor is projected onto the slip system of the crystal. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
