Purpose: Thermal stress and strain analyses of a thickness-stretched shear deformable microplate is studied in this paper based on principle of virtual work through a micro scale dependent theory.
Methods: The general constitutive relations are developed in three dimensional based on generalized Hooke’s law. Thermal strain is included in the governing equations based on various temperature rising along the thickness direction.
Results: An extended parametric analysis is performed in this paper after solution of the governing equations based on Navier’s technique. Numerical results are plotted in terms of temperature rising, micro-scale parameter along the thickness direction.
Conclusions: The important difference of this paper with available materials in the literature is concurrent effect of thickness stretching ability and micro scale parameter.
