Based upon the Green–Lindsay (GL) theory of thermoelasticity and the Eringen non-local elasticity theory, we describe the new constitutive relations and the field equations for generalized non-local thermoelastic model. The propagation of harmonically time-dependent thermoelastic plane waves of assigned frequency is studied in a homogeneous, isotropic, non-local infinite elastic solid by employing these equations. Reflection phenomenon of thermoelastic waves at a stress-free thermally insulated or isothermal flat boundary of a non-local thermoelastic solid half-space is also studied in case of incident coupled longitudinal wave. The amplitude ratios of the reflected waves to that of incident wave are determined analytically and numerically by considering an appropriate material. The numerical results are presented graphically to highlight the effects of various parameters of interest.
