Abstract
In this article, the theory of generalized thermoelasticity with one relaxation time is used to investigate the thermoelastic fiber-reinforced anisotropic material with a finite linear crack. The crack boundary is due to a prescribed temperature and stress distribution. By using the finite element method, the numerical solutions of the components of displacement, temperature and the stress components have been obtained. Comparisons of the results in the absence and presence of reinforcement have been presented.
