The mathematical model includes the heat conduction equation, the stress wave equation, a kinetic law and a constitutive law. As kinetic law the Likhachev model is used, which describes the one-way effect, pseudoelasticity properties and thermal loading cycles. It is observed that the vibration amplitude of the rod decreases in this model very quickly. Results are in good agreement with earlier investigations, where other kinetic laws have been used.
