熱應(yīng)力雜志主編R. B. Hetnarski教授學(xué)術(shù)報告會成功舉行

應(yīng)浙江大學(xué)應(yīng)用力學(xué)研究所的邀請，國際熱應(yīng)力雜志《Journal of Thermal Stresses》主編，美國羅切斯特理工大學(xué)（Rochester Institute of Technology）榮休教授R. B. Hetnarski于6月9日下午3:30在浙江大學(xué)玉泉校區(qū)教12-118會議室作了題為“Coupled Thermoelasticity – Problem for a Space”的學(xué)術(shù)報告。

熱應(yīng)力分析是固體力學(xué)的重要研究內(nèi)容，不僅在機(jī)、電、土、化等傳統(tǒng)工業(yè)的結(jié)構(gòu)和系統(tǒng)設(shè)計中發(fā)揮著巨大的作用，在航空、航天、核工程、微機(jī)電系統(tǒng)、生物醫(yī)學(xué)等新型工程設(shè)計中也是必不可少的內(nèi)容。特別是高速、微型化等應(yīng)用對熱應(yīng)力分析提出了更高的要求，需要更精確的理論和有效的分析方法。

Hetnarski教授首先簡要分析了經(jīng)典非耦合熱彈性理論的特點(diǎn)，指出其存在兩個明顯的缺陷，即（1）無法解釋諸如金屬試件在拉伸過程會發(fā)燙的現(xiàn)象，和（2）熱的傳播速度表現(xiàn)為無限大。第一個缺陷可以由耦合的熱彈性理論予以克服，通過增加適當(dāng)?shù)鸟詈享棧碚撋霞瓤梢灶A(yù)測由熱致力，也可以預(yù)測由力致熱。第二個缺陷可以由修改經(jīng)典的傅立葉熱傳導(dǎo)方程加以克服，使其從拋物型改成雙曲型。在此非經(jīng)典熱彈性框架內(nèi)，Hetnarski教授介紹了他提出的基于算子理論的數(shù)學(xué)推導(dǎo)方法，可以方便地在頻域內(nèi)獲得點(diǎn)源荷載作用下的Green函數(shù)，并給出了若干有趣的熱應(yīng)力分析結(jié)果。他在報告中也特地指出了《Journal of Thermal Stresses》的標(biāo)志圖案就來自其早年基于非經(jīng)典耦合熱彈性理論的計算結(jié)果。

報告吸引了眾多老師和同學(xué)的參與，引起了廣泛興趣。大家從不同的角度提出了很多問題，討論十分熱烈。

R. B. Hetnarski教授不僅是熱應(yīng)力雜志的創(chuàng)刊人，也是國際熱應(yīng)力大會（International Congress on Thermal Stresses）的發(fā)起人。第十屆國際熱應(yīng)力大會剛于2013年5月31日-6月4日在南京成功舉辦，我所陳偉球教授應(yīng)邀作了大會報告。下一屆熱應(yīng)力大會將于2015年在加拿大舉行。

附：報告人簡介

Dr. Richard B. Hetnarski, PE, is professor emeritus in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Rochester Institute of Technology, Rochester, New York. He received his MS degree in mechanical engineering from Gdansk University of Technology, Gdansk, Poland, in 1952; his MS degree in mathematics from the University of Warsaw, Warsaw, Poland, in 1960; and his degree of doctor of technical sciences from the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw in 1964.

In the period 1964–1965, he held postdoctorate fellowships at Columbia University in New York and at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. In Poland, he worked in the industry, including at the Institute of Aviation in Warsaw (1955–1959) and at the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences (1959–1969).

In 1969, Dr. Hetnarski and his family emigrated from Poland to the United States, where he became visiting associate professor in the Department of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, for the period 1969–1970. From 1970 to 1998, he held positions in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Rochester Institute of Technology, first as New York State Science and Technology Foundation Distinguished Visiting Professor (1970–1971), then as professor (1971–1992), and finally as James E. Gleason Professor (1992–1998).

In 1979, Dr. Hetnarski held a summer faculty fellowship at the NASA Lewis Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio. Subsequently, he become a NASA employee, and as an aeronautical engineer worked at NASA until the end of January 1980. Later, he spent five months as visiting professor at the University of Paderborn in Germany. He also taught a UNESCO sponsored course on thermoelasticity at the International Centre for Mechanical Sciences in Udine, Italy.

Dr. Hetnarski is the founder and president of the International Congresses on Thermal Stresses (ICTS). These Congresses are held every two years, consecutively on three continents.

Dr. Hetnarski has been active in research, publishing, translating, and editing. He is the author of many papers on mechanics and mathematics. In 1978, he founded the Journal of Thermal Stresses, and has been its editor-in-chief ever since. He served for 13 years (1988–2001) as an associate editor of Applied Mechanics Reviews. He is also the author of three books, including two textbooks: Thermal Stresses (by N. Noda, R. B. Hetnarski, and Y. Tanigawa), 2nd edn., Taylor & Francis, Boca Raton, FL, 2003; and Thermal Stresses—Advanced Theory and Applications (by R. B. Hetnarski and M. R. Eslami), Springer, Berlin, Germany, 2009. He has translated three books from Russian, from German, and from English into Polish, and one (with M. Piterman) from Russian into English. He has also edited seven books on mechanics, including the five-volume Thermal Stresses handbook, which was published by Elsevier in Amsterdam and by Lastran Corp. in Rochester during the period 1986–1999.

During his tenure at Rochester Institute of Technology, Dr. Hetnarski served as a consultant to the U.S. Air Force at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, and to a number of industrial companies in the Rochester area. He also served as an expert witness in numerous legal product liability cases.
