Résumé: The propagation of nonlinear longitudinal waves in a plate is studied by taking into account the interaction of the longitudinal displacement component with the temperature field and the field of concentration of nonequilibrium atomic point defects. A nonlinear evolution equation is derived for describing the self-consistent thermoelastic longitudinal strain fields. It is shown that the thermoelastic effect on the strain waves manifests itself in the appearance of dissipative terms, which describe the heat transfer and the thermoelastic interaction caused by the strain-induced heat release due to the recombination of nonequilibrium atomic defects. The soliton solutions to the evolution equation are investigated, and the characteristic features of their damping are considered with allowance for the low-frequency and high-frequency losses .
