The purpose of this paper is to depict the effect of time and thermal and diffusion phase-lags due to axisymmetric heat supply in a ring. The problem is discussed within the context of dual-phase-lag heat transfer and dual-phase-lag diffusion models. The upper and lower surfaces of the ring are traction free and subjected to an axisymmetric heat supply.

The solution is found by using Laplace and Hankel transform technique and a direct approach without the use of potential functions. The analytical expressions of displacements, stresses and chemical potential, temperature and mass concentration are computed in transformed domain. Numerical inversion technique has been applied to obtain the results in the physical domain. Numerically simulated results are depicted graphically. The effect of time and diffusion and thermal phase-lags are shown on the various components. Some particular cases of result are also deduced from the present investigation.

It is observed that change in time changes the behaviour of deformations of the various components of stresses, displacements, chemical potential function, temperature change and mass concentration. The authors find that for t=0.2, trends are oscillatory in all the cases whereas for t=0.1, trends are quite different. A sound impact of diffusion and thermal phase-lags on the various quantities is observed. A lot of difference in the trends of single phase lag and dual phase lag is observed. The use of diffusion phase-lags in the equation of mass diffusion gives a more realistic model of thermoelastic diffusion media as it allows a delayed response between the relative mass flux vector and the potential gradient.

This problem is totally new because dual phase lag is applied in heat conduction and diffusion equation while considering the problem of plate in axisymmetric heat supply.

The purpose of this paper is to frame a dual-phase-lag model using the fractional theory of thermoelasticity with relaxation time. The generalized Fourier law of heat conduction based upon Tzou model that includes temperature gradient, the thermal displacement and two different translations of heat flux vector and temperature gradient has been used to formulate the heat conduction model. The microstructural interactions and corresponding thermal changes have been studied due to the involvement of relaxation time and delay time translations. This results in achieving the finite speed of thermal wave. Classical coupled and generalized thermoelasticity theories are recovered by considering the various special cases for different order of fractional derivatives and two different translations under consideration.

The work presented in this manuscript proposes a dual-phase-lag mathematical model of a thick circular plate in a finite cylindrical domain subjected to axis-symmetric heat flux. The model has been designed in the context of fractional thermoelasticity by considering two successive terms in Taylor’s series expansion of fractional Fourier law of heat conduction in the two different translations of heat flux vector and temperature gradient. The analytical results have been obtained in Laplace transform domain by transforming the original problem into eigenvalue problem using Hankel and Laplace transforms. The numerical inversions of Laplace transforms have been achieved using the Gaver−Stehfast algorithm, and convergence criterion has been discussed. For illustrative purpose, the dual-phase-lag model proposed in this manuscript has been applied to a periodically varying heat source. The numerical results have been depicted graphically and compared with classical, fractional and generalized thermoelasticity for various fractional orders under consideration.

A dual-phase-lag model can effectively be incorporated to study the transient heat conduction problems for an exponentially decaying pulse boundary heat flux and/or for a short-pulse boundary heat flux in long solid tubes and cylinders. This model is also applicable to study the various effects of the thermal lag ratio and the shift time. These dual-phase-lag models are also practically applicable in the problems of modeling of nanoscale heat transport problems of semiconductor devices and accordingly semiconductors can be classified as per their ability of heat conduction.

To the authors’ knowledge, no one has discussed fractional thermoelastic dual-phase-lag problem associated with relaxation time in a finite cylindrical domain for a thick circular plate subjected to an axis-symmetric heat source. This is the latest and novel contribution to the field of thermal mechanics.

The purpose of this paper is to depict the effect of thermal and diffusion phase-lags on plane waves propagating in thermoelastic diffusion medium with different material symmetry. A generalized form of mass diffusion equation is introduced instead of classical Fick's diffusion theory by using two diffusion phase-lags, one phase-lag of diffusing mass flux vector, represents the delayed time required for the diffusion of the mass flux and the other phase-lag of chemical potential, represents the delayed time required for the establishment of the potential gradient. The basic equations for the anisotropic thermoelastic diffusion medium in the context of dual-phase-lag heat transfer (DPLT) and dual-phase-lag diffusion (DPLD) models are presented. The governing equations for transversely isotropic and isotropic case are also reduced. The different characteristics of waves like phase velocity, attenuation coefficient, specific loss and penetration depth are computed numerically. Numerically computed results are depicted graphically for anisotropic, transversely isotropic and isotropic medium. The effect of diffusion and thermal phase-lags are shown on the different characteristic of waves. Some particular cases of result are also deduced from the present investigation.

The governing equations of thermoelastic diffusion are presented using DPLT model and a new model of DPLD. Effect of phase-lags of thermal and diffusion is presented on different characteristic of waves.

The effect of diffusion and thermal phase-lags on the different characteristic of waves is appreciable. Also the use of diffusion phase-lags in the equation of mass diffusion gives a more realistic model of thermoelastic diffusion media as it allows a delayed response between the relative mass flux vector and the potential gradient.

Introduction of a new model of DPLD in the equation of mass diffusion.

The purpose of this paper is to study the axisymmetric problem in a micropolar porous thermoelastic circular plate with dual phase lag model by employing eigenvalue approach subjected to thermomechanical sources.

The Laplace and Hankel transforms are employed to obtain the expressions for displacements, microrotation, volume fraction field, temperature distribution and stresses in the transformed domain. A numerical inversion technique has been carried out to obtain the resulting quantities in the physical domain. Effect of porosity and phase lag on the resulting quantities has been presented graphically. The results obtained for Lord Shulman theory (L-S, 1967) and coupled theory of thermoelasticity are presented as the particular cases.

The variation of temperature distribution is similar for micropolar thermoelastic with dual (MTD) phase lag model and coupled theory of thermoelasticity. The variation is also similar for tangential couple stress for MTD and L-S theory but opposite to couple theory. The behavior of volume fraction field and tangential couple stress for L-S theory and coupled theory are observed opposite. The values of all the resulting quantities are close to each other away from the sources. The variation in tangential stress, tangential couple stress and temperature distribution is more uniform.

The results are original and new because the authors presented an eigenvalue approach for two dimensional problem of micropolar porous thermoelastic circular plate with dual phase lag model. A comparison of porosity, L-S theory and coupled theory of micropolar thermoelasticity is made. Such problem has applications in material science, industries and earthquake problems.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the thermoelastic functionally graded beam in a modified couple stress theory subjected to a dual-phase-lag model.

The governing equations are solved by using the Euler-Bernoulli beam assumption and the Laplace transform technique. The lateral deflection, temperature change, displacement component, axial stress and thermal moment of the beam are obtained by ramp type heating in the transformed domain. A general algorithm of the inverse Laplace transform is developed to recover the results in a physical domain.

The lateral deflection, temperature change, displacement component, axial stress and thermal moment of the beam are computed numerically and presented graphically to show the effect of ramp time parameter and phase lags of heating.

Comparisons are made in the absence and presence of coupled dual-phase-lag thermoelastic and coupled thermoelastic L-S theories and also different values of ramp type parameter.

The purpose of the current manuscript is to investigate the reflection of plane waves in a rotating, two-dimensional homogeneous, initially stressed, nonlocal orthotropic thermoelastic solid half-space based on dual-phase-lag model.

The reflection phenomenon has been utilized to study the effects of initial stress, rotation and nonlocal parameter on the amplitude ratios. During the reflection phenomenon three coupled waves, namely quasi displacement primary wave (qP), quasi thermal wave (qT) and quasi displacement secondary wave (qSV) have been observed in the medium, propagating with distinct velocities. After imposing the suitable boundary conditions, amplitude and energy ratios of the reflected waves are obtained in explicit form.

With the support of MATLAB programming, the amplitude ratios and energy ratios are plotted graphically to display the effects of rotation, initial stress and nonlocal parameters. Moreover, the impact of anisotropy and phase lags is also observed on the reflection coefficients of the propagating waves.

In the current work, we have considered rotation and nonlocality parameters in an initially stressed orthotropic thermoelastic half-space, which is lacking in the published literature in this field. The introduction of these parameters in a nonlocal orthotropic thermoelastic medium provides a more realistic model for these studies. The present work is valuable for the analysis of orthotropic thermoelastic problems involving rotation, initial stress and nonlocality parameters.

The purpose of this paper is to study of propagation of plane wave and the fundamental solution of the system of differential equations in the theory of a microstretch thermoelastic diffusion medium in phase-lag models for the case of steady oscillations in terms of elementary functions.

Wave propagation technique along with the numerical methods for computation using MATLAB software has been applied to investigate the problem.

Characteristics of waves like phase velocity and attenuation coefficient are computed numerically and depicted graphically. It is found that due to the presence of diffusion effect, these characteristics get influenced significantly. However, due to decoupling of CD-I and CD-II waves from rest of other, no effect on these characteristics can be perceived.

Basic properties of the fundamental solution are established by introducing the dual-phase-lag diffusion (DPLD) and dual-phase-lag heat transfer (DPLT) models.

The purpose of this paper is to study the propagation of Rayleigh waves in thermoelastic medium with mass diffusion.

The field equations for the linear theory of homogeneous isotropic thermoelastic diffusion medium are taken into consideration by using dual-phase-lag heat transfer (DPLT) and dual-phase-lag diffusion (DPLD) models. Using the potential functions and harmonic wave solution, three coupled dilatational waves and a shear wave is obtained. After developing mathematical formulation, the dispersion equation is obtained, which results to be complex and irrational. This equation is converted into a polynomial form of higher degree.

From the polynomial equation, Rayleigh wave root is found. The secular equation is resolved into a polynomial form to find the roots and therefore to find the existence and propagation of Rayleigh wave. The existence of Rayleigh wave in the assumed model depends on the values of various parameters involved in the secular equation. These roots are resolved for phase velocity and attenuation of the inhomogeneous propagation of Rayleigh wave. Behavior of particle motion of these waves inside and at the surface of the thermoelastic medium with mass diffusion is studied. Particular cases of the interest are also deduced from the present investigation.

Governing equations corresponding to DPLT and DPLD models of thermoelastic diffusion are formulated to study the wave propagation and their dependence on various material parameters. In this paper effects of thermal and diffusion phase lags on the phase velocity, attenuation and on particle paths are observed and depicted graphically.
