I. INTRODUCTION
In anisotropic bodies, it is necessary to study the response of thermally induced disturbances, which may happen during the manufacturing stages. For example, during the curing stages of filament bound bodies, thermal disturbances may be induced by the heat buildup and cooling processes. The level of these disturbances may exceed the ultimate strength of the material. In the last century, a considerable interest is developed in the theory of thermoelasticity that includes such thermal disturbances. After studying the second sound effect in materials as solid helium, bismuth, and sodium fluoride, a systematic research get started.
The classical dynamical coupled theory of thermoelasticity has been extended to generalized thermoelasticity theories by Lord and Shulman (1967) and Green and Lindsay (1972). Dhaliwal and Sherief (1980) extended the generalized theory of thermoelasticity (1967) to anisotropic media. Green and Naghdi (1993) proposed a new theory of thermoelasticity without energy dissipation and presented the derivation of a complete set of governing equations of the linearized version of the theory for homogenous and isotropic materials in terms of displacement and temperature fields.
Chandrasekharaiah (1998) and Tzou (1995) proposed another generalization to coupled theory is known as dual-phase-lag thermoelasticity, in which Fourier law is replaced by an approximation to a modification of the Fourier law with two different translations for the heat flux and temperature gradient. Lin (2004) studied thermoelastic problems in anisotropic half-plane. Kumar and Rani (2007) discussed disturbances due to thermomechanical sources in orthorhombic thermoelastic material. Beom (2013) considered thermoelastic in-plane problems in linear anisotropic solid. Valès et al. (2016) studied determination of heat source dissipation from infrared thermographic measurements. Bockstal and Marin(2017) discussed recovery of a space dependent vector source in anisotropic thermoelastic system. Rani and Singh (2018) studied thermal disturbances in twinned orthotropic thermoelastic material. Zhang et al. (2019) discussed thermo-mechanical coupling analysis of the orthotropic structures by using element-free Galerkin method. Zhou et al. (2020) solved transient heat conduction problems in general anisotropic media and derived three-dimensional Green's functions in bimaterial.
Nowinski (1959,1960,1962) developed thermoelasticity of bodies with temperature dependent properties. Noda (1991) considered thermal stresses in materials with temperature dependent properties. Ezzat et al. (2001) solved a problem of generalized thermoelasticity with two relaxation times in an isotropic elastic medium with temperature-dependent mechanical properties. Othman and Kumar (2009) studied the reflection of magneto-thermoelastic waves with temperature dependent properties in generalized thermoelasticity. Kalkal and Deswal (2014) adopted normal mode technique to investigate the effect of phase lags on three-dimensional wave propagation with temperature-dependent properties. Matysiak et al. (2017) studied temperature and stresses in a thermoelastic half-space with temperature dependent properties. Zhang et al. (2019) studied the effect of temperature dependant material properties on thermoelastic damping in thin beams.
To the best of my knowledge the problem of homogeneous, thermally conducting, cubic crystal material under the effect of dependence of reference temperature on all elastic and thermal parameters has not yet been investigated. In the present problem the component of displacements, stresses and temperature distribution are determined due to mechanical and thermal sources. The solutions are obtained by using Laplace and Fourier technique. The comparison of Linear case, quadratic case and exponential case, respectively, are shown graphically for thermal source for L-S theory.
II. FORMULATION OF THE PROBLEM
We consider a homogenous, thermally conducting cubic crystal, elastic half-space in the undeformed state at uniform temperature . The rectangular Cartesian coordinate system having origin on the plane surface z=0 with z-axis pointing vertically into medium is introduced. A concentrated and uniformly distributed mechanical or thermal source is assumed to be acting at the origin of the rectangular Cartesian co-ordinates. Here we consider plane strain problem parallel to xz-plane with displacement vector and temperature , then the field equations and constitutive relations for such a medium in the absence of body forces and heat sources can be written, by following the equations given by Lord-Shulman (1967), Green and Lindsay (1972) and Dhaliwal and Sherief (1980) as

Following Dhaliwal and Singh (1980), we take the case of magnesium crystal-like material for numerical calculations. The physical constants used are:
The variations of normal boundary displacement and boundary temperature field with distance at non-dimensional time are shown graphically in figures 1-4, for L-S, for non-dimensional relaxation times . The computations were carried out for time and at in the range . The solid lines (——), the small dashed lines (-----) and the long dashed lines (---), in graphs represent the variations for Linear case, quadratic case and exponential case, respectively for L-S theory. The results for distributed thermal source are presented for dimensionless width . The figures (1)-(4) are depicted for thermal source.
a) Instantaneous Load
i. Thermal source on the surface of half-space (Temperature gradient boundary)
a. Thermal point source
Figure 1. shows the variation of normal displacement 'w' with distance x. The values of normal displacement starts with sharp increase and then become oscillatory in the whole range for Linear case, quadratic case and exponential case. The values of normal displacement for linear and quadratic case are more than the exponential case in the whole range .
Figure 2. depicts the variation of temperature distribution T with distance x. Initially the values of T start with sharp decrease and then become oscillatory about zero in the whole range for Linear case, quadratic case and exponential case. The values of 'T' shows appreciable effect for all the three cases.
b. Uniformly Distributed Thermal Source
Figure 3. depicts the variation of normal displacement w with distance x. The values of normal displacement in all the three cases start with sharp increase, the values show very small variation about zero in the whole range for linear and quadratic case. The values of normal displacement for exponential case are more than linear and quadratic case in the range , which shows the appreciable effect of exponential case.
Figure 4. depicts the variation of temperature distribution T with distance x. At the point of application of source, the values of T decrease sharply for all the three cases. The values of T for linear and quadratic case are more than exponential case in the range . In range , the values of 'T' for quadratic case shows opposite oscillatory pattern in comparison to linear and exponential case.
VII. CONCLUSION
The comparison of linear and quadratic and exponential case has been depicted for L-S theory for temperature gradient boundary.
As 'x' diverse from the point of application of source the components of normal displacement and temperature are observed to follow small variations about zero in the range for instantaneous load.
The variations of normal displacement and temperature distribution for uniformly distributed thermal source are same as those of Thermal point source with difference in their magnitude for all the three cases.
