In this work, a mathematical model of an elastic material with cylindrical cavity will be constructed. The governing equations will be taken into the context of the fractional order generalized thermoelasticity theory (Youssef 2010). Laplace transform and direct approach will be used to obtain the solution when the boundary of the cavity is exposed to harmonically heat with constant angular frequency of thermal vibration. The inverse of Laplace transforms will be computed numerically using a method based on Fourier expansion techniques. Some comparisons have been shown in figures to present the effect of the fractional order parameter and the angular frequency of thermal vibration on all the studied felids.
