Abstract: Thermal stresses and displacement functions are obtained for a rectangular plate occupying the space R: -a < x < a, 0 < y < b, -h < z < h, with the known boundary and initial conditions. In this inverse problem the unknown surface temperature is determined on the boundary along the y-axis when the temperature at some internal point is known. The governing heat conduction equation has been solved by applying Marchi – Fasulo transform and Laplace transform techniques. The solutions are obtained in form of infinite series. The results for displacement and thermal stresses have been computed numerically and illustrated graphically for Aluminium plate. MSC 2010: 74A10,74J25, 74H99, 74D99
