We consider spatially one-dimensional boundary value problems of uncoupled thermoelasticity, which can be used to study various rod structures under thermal heating conditions. As is known, rod structures are connecting and transmission links of various parts of the machines and mechanisms. Here we propose a unified technique for solving various boundary value problems typical for practical applications. The problems of determining the thermally stressed state of a thermoelastic rod under various boundary conditions at its ends and acting power and heat sources along the entire length of the rod are considered. Based on the method of generalized functions, generalized solutions of non-stationary and stationary direct and semi-inverse boundary value problems under the action of power and heat sources of various types, including stationary sources of periodic oscillations, are constructed. Acting sources can also be specified by singular generalized functions, under various boundary conditions at the ends of the rod. Shock elastic waves that arise in such structures under the action of shock loads are considered. Regular integral representations of generalized solutions are obtained, which provide an analytical solution to the posed boundary value problems. The peculiarity of the constructed solutions makes them convenient for studying network thermoelastic systems that can be modeled by thermoelastic graphs.
