The purpose of this paper is to introduce the phase-lag models (Lord-Shulman, dual-phase-lag and three-phase-lag) to study the effect of memory-dependent derivative and the influence of thermal loading due to laser pulse on the wave propagation of generalized micropolar thermoelasticity. The bounding plane surface is heated by a non-Gaussian laser beam with a pulse duration of 10 nanoseconds.

The normal mode analysis technique is used to obtain the exact expressions for the displacement components, the force stresses, the temperature, the couple stresses and the micro-rotation. Comparisons are made with the results predicted by three theories of the authors’ interest. Excellent predictive capability is demonstrated at a different time also.

The effect of memory-dependent derivative and the heat laser pulse on the displacement, the temperature distribution, the components of stress, the couple stress and the microrotation vector have been depicted graphically.

Some particular cases are also deduced from the present investigation.

The numerical results are presented graphically and are compared with different three theories for both in the presence and absence of memory-dependent effect and with the results predicted under three theories for two different values of the time.

Generalized micropolar thermoelastic solid.

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.

This paper is concerned with the analysis of transient wave phenomena in a micropolar thermoelastic half-space subjected to inclined load. The governing equations are formulated in the context of two-temperature generalized thermoelasticity theory with DPLs. A medium is assumed to be initially quiescent and under the effect of gravity. An analytical solution of the problem is obtained by employing normal mode analysis. Numerical estimates of displacement, stresses and temperatures are computed for magnesium crystal-like material and are illustrated graphically. Comparisons of the physical quantities are shown in figures to study the effects of gravity, two-temperature parameter and angle of inclination. Some particular cases of interest have also been inferred from the present problem.

The purpose of this paper is to study a model of the equations of a two-dimensional problem in a half space, whose surface in a free micropolar thermoelastic medium possesses cubic symmetry as a result of inclined load. The problem is formulated in the context of Green-Naghdi theory of type II (G-N II) (without energy dissipation) and of type III (G-N III) (with energy dissipation) under the effect of magnetic field.

The normal mode analysis is used to obtain the exact expressions of the physical quantities.

The numerical results are given and presented graphically when the inclined load and magnetic field are applied. Comparisons are made with the results predicted by G-N theory of both types II and III in the presence and absence of the magnetic field and for different values of the angle of inclination.

The purpose of this study is to develop a comprehensive size-dependent piezoelectric thermo-viscoelastic coupling model that accounts for two fundamentally distinct size-dependent models that govern fractional dual-phase lag heat transfer and viscoelastic deformation, respectively.

The fractional calculus has recently been shown to capture precisely the experimental effects of viscoelastic materials. The governing equations are combined into a unified system, from which certain theorems results on linear coupled and generalized theories of thermo-viscoelasticity may be easily established. Laplace transforms and state–space approach will be used to determine the generic solution when any set of boundary conditions exists. The derived formulation is used to two concrete different problems for a piezoelectric rod. The numerical technique for inverting the transfer functions is used to generate observable numerical results.

Some analogies of impacts of nonlocal thermal conduction, nonlocal elasticity and DPL parameters as well as fractional order on thermal spreads and thermo-viscoelastic response are illustrated in the figures.

The results in all figures indicate that the nonlocal thermal and viscoelastic parameters have a considerable influence on all field values. This discovery might help with the design and analysis of thermal-mechanical aspects of nanoscale devices.

The purpose of this paper is to establish a two-dimensional model of Green–Lindsay theory for micropolar magneto-thermoelastic medium to study the photothermal effect. The model is used to study the coupling between elastic waves and plasma waves generated due to thermal changes in a micropolar elastic medium.

Normal mode analysis is used to obtain the analytical solutions of the governing equations.

Effects of magnetic field, micropolarity, photothermal and time are highlighted on various physical fields such as stresses, temperature, displacement and carrier density. The above physical fields also conform to the boundary conditions. It is further observed that all the physical quantities become zero outside some bounded region of space, thus confirming the notion of generalized theory of thermoelasticity.

The values of physical fields are computed numerically using MATLAB software considering material constants for silicon. Furthermore, the effects are depicted graphically and analyzed accordingly. The study is valuable for the analysis of thermoelastic problems involving magnetic field, micropolarity and elastic deformations.

The present investigation is concerned with a two‐dimensional problem in electromagnetic micropolar elasticity for a half‐space whose surface is subjected to mechanical or thermal source in the presence of a transverse magnetic field. Laplace and Fourier transform technique is used to solve the problem. As an application of the approach concentrated/continuous mechanical or thermal source has been taken. The integral transforms have been inverted by using a numerical technique to obtain the components of normal strain, temperature distribution, normal force stress and tangential couple stress in the physical domain. The expressions of these quantities have been given and illustrated graphically to depict the magnetic effect for two different theories of generalized thermoelasticity, Lord and Shulman (L‐S theory) and Green and Lindsay (G‐L theory). Some special cases of interest are also deduced from the present investigation.
