A framework for thermoelastic analysis of wave propagation in multilaminated structures is given. The elastic material is subject to an arbitrary, homogeneous deformation and to a condition of uniform temperature. Small-amplitude vibrations are analyzed starting from this state, in a fully coupled thermomechanical formulation.
