On a thermodynamic theory of rods with two temperature fields

This paper presents a thermodynamic theory for elastic rods using the model of directed curves. In this model, the thin rod-like bodies are described as deformable curves with a triad of rigidly rotating vectors attached to each point. To account for the thermal effects in rods, we introduce two independent temperature fields: the absolute temperature field and the temperature deviation field. We present a complete derivation of the non-linear equations of thermoelastic rods, starting from the principles of thermodynamics. Finally, we prove the uniqueness of solution to the linearized equations of thermoelastodynamics for rods.
