The purpose of this paper is to study the reflection of a plane harmonic wave at the interface of thermo-microstretch elastic half space. The modulus of elasticity is taken as a linear function of reference temperature. The formulation is applied to generalized thermoelasticity theories, the Lord-Shulman and Green-Lindsay theories, as well as the classical dynamical coupled theory. Using potential function, the governing equations reduce to ten-order differential equation.

Coefficient ratios of reflection of different waves with the angle of incidence are obtained using continuous boundary conditions. By numerical calculations, the variation of coefficient ratios of reflection with the angle of incidence is illustrated graphically for magnesium crystal micropolar material under three theories.

The effect of different temperature-dependent constants and frequency on the coefficient ratios of reflection is illustrated graphically in context of Lord-Shulman theory.

The reflection coefficient ratios are given analytically and illustrated graphically. The effects of thermal relaxation times are very small on reflection coefficient ratio. The temperature-dependent constant and wave frequency have a strong effect on the reflection coefficient ratios.

The normal mode technique is adopted to obtain the exact expressions of the physical quantities.

Numerical computations for stresses, displacement components, temperature field and change in the volume fraction field are performed for suitable material and are depicted graphically. Some comparisons have been shown in figures to estimate the effects of micropolarity, initial stress, voids, nonlocal parameter and time on the resulting quantities.

The exact expressions for the displacement components, stresses, temperature and change in the volume fraction field are obtained in the physical domain. Although numerous investigations do exist to observe the disturbances in a homogeneous, isotropic, initially stressed, micropolar thermoelastic half-space, the work in its current form has not been established by any scholar till now. The originality of the present work lies in the formulation of a fresh research problem to investigate the dependence of different physical fields on nonlocality parameters, micropolarity, initial stress, porosity and time due to the application of a moving thermal shock.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the thermo-diffusion process in a semi-infinite nonlocal fiber-reinforced double porous thermoelastic diffusive material with voids (FRDPTDMWV) in light of the fractional-order Lord–Shulman thermo-elasto-diffusion (LSTED) model. By virtue of Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory, the governing equations for the considered material are developed. The free surface of the substrate is governed by the inclined mechanical load and thermal and chemical shocks.

With the aid of the normal mode technique, the solutions of the nondimensional coupled governing equations have been obtained.

The expressions of field variables are obtained analytically. By using MATHEMATICA software, various graphical implementations are presented to describe the impacts of angle of inclination, fractional-order and nonlocality parameters. The present model is also validated on the basis of some comparative studies with some preestablished cases.

As observed from the literature survey, many different studies have been carried out by taking into account the deformation analysis in nonlocal double porous thermoelastic material structures and thermo-mechanical interaction in fiber-reinforced medium under fractional-order thermoelasticity theories. However, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, no research emphasizing the thermo-elasto-diffusive interactions in a nonlocal FRDPTDMWV has been carried out. Moreover, the effect of fractional-order LSTED theory on fiber-reinforced thermoelastic diffusive half-space with double porosity has not been illuminated till now, which significantly defines the novelty of the conducted research.

under the effect of temperature dependent properties is established. The modulus of elasticity is taken as a linear function on reference temperature. The formulation is applied under three theories of the generalized thermoelasticity: Lord‐Shulman and Green‐Naghdi (of type II) without energy dissipation, as well as the coupled theory. The normal mode analysis is used to obtain the expressions for the temperature, displacement components and the thermal stresses distributions. Numerical results are illustrated graphically for each problem considered. A Comparison is made with the results predicted by the three theories in the presence and absence of magnetic field and with the case where the modulus of elasticity is independent of temperature.

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.
