Abstract. A generalized thermoelastic theory, in
the context of L-S theory, is used to investigate the two-temperature
magneto-thermoelastic one-dimensional problem for a perfect conducting
infinite medium whose surface is subjected to a thermal shock and is either
considered as (i) traction-free or (ii) laid on a rigid foundation. The
one-dimensional generalized magneto-thermoelastic coupled governing
equations are written into a vector-matrix differential equation by using
Laplace transform techniques and then solved by eigenvalue approach. The
inversion of the transforms solution is carried out numerically in the
space-time domain using Bellman method and illustrated graphically in two
different cases. The effects of applied magnetic field and the two-temperature
parameter on the field variables are studied.
