The effective interfacial parameters of a bimaterial with a periodic set of heat-conducting interfacial cracks

Abstract

Based on the solution of the problem of thermoelasticity for a bimaterial with a periodic set of
interfacial cracks containing a heat-conducting filler, the effective interfacial parameters of such a
structure (i.e., the effective temperature jump and the effective thermal resistance) have been
determined. The analysis has been carried out for dependences of the effective parameters on the
thermal conductivity of the filler, as well as the interfacial cracking factor of the biomaterial, and
the thermal and mechanical loads. The heat flow directional effect has been also studied.
