  • Thermo elasticity is the change in size and shape of a solid object as the temperature of that object fluctuates. The principles of thermo elasticity have affected the way engineers design a number of different objects. The patent is a limited legal monopoly granted to an individual or firm to make, use and sell its invention and to exclude others from doing so. According to section 3 (k) of Indian patent act, mathematical methods are nonpatentable because these are considered to be acts of mental skill. However, any application of mathematical formula may be patented if it satisfies the qualifications of “invention.“ This paper reviews recent and important patents related to applications of thermo elasticity within different fields.
