Abstract
Purpose
The dual-phase-lag (DPL) model and Lord-Shulman theory with one relaxation time are applied to study the effect of the gravity field, the magnetic field, and the hydrostatic initial stress on the wave propagation in a two-temperature generalized thermoelastic problem for a medium with an internal heat source that is moving with a constant speed. The paper aims to discuss this issue.
Design/methodology/approach
The exact expressions of the considered variables are obtained by using normal mode analysis.
Findings
Numerical results for the field quantities are given in the physical domain and illustrated graphically in the absence and presence of the gravity field as well as the magnetic field. Comparisons are made between the results of the two different models with and without temperature dependent properties and for two different values of the hydrostatic initial stress. A comparison is also made between the results of the two different models for two different values of the time.
Originality/value
In the present work, the author shall formulate a two-temperature generalized magneto-thermoelastic problem for a medium with temperature dependent properties and with an internal heat source that is moving with a constant speed under the influence of a gravity field and a hydrostatic initial stress. Normal mode analysis is used to obtain the exact expressions for the displacement components, thermodynamic temperature, conductive temperature, and stress components. A comparison is carried out between the considered variables as calculated from the generalized thermoelasticity based on the DPL model and the L-S theory in the absence and presence of a magnetic field as well as a gravity field. Comparisons are also made between the results of the two theories with and without temperature dependent properties and for two different values of hydrostatic initial stress. A comparison is also made between the results of the two different models for two different values of the time.

Design/methodology/approach
The exact expressions of the considered variables are obtained by using normal mode analysis.
Findings
Numerical results for the field quantities are given in the physical domain and illustrated graphically to show the effect of angle of inclination. Comparisons of the physical quantities are also shown in figure to study the effect of gravity and two-temperature parameter.
Originality/value
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.

Abstract
The complexity of a general system is identified with its temperature and, analogously with Boltzmann's probability density in thermodynamics, this temperature is related to the informational entropy of the system. The concept of informational entropy of deterministic functions provides a straightforward modelling of Brillouin's negentropy (negative entropy), therefore a system can be characterized by its complexity and its dual complexity. States composition laws for complexities expressed in terms of Shannonian entropy with or without probability, and then the approach is extended to quantum entropy of non‐probabilistic data. Outlines some suggestions for future investigation.

The purpose of this paper is to study the reflection of plane waves in an initially stressed rotating thermoelastic diffusive medium with micro-concentrations and two-temperature.
Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to study the reflection of plane waves in an initially stressed rotating thermoelastic diffusive medium with micro-concentrations and two-temperature.
Design/methodology/approach
A two-dimensional model of generalized thermoelasticity is considered. The governing equations are transformed into the non-dimensional forms using the dimensionless variables. Then, potential functions are introduced for the decoupling of the waves. Further, appropriate boundary conditions are assumed to completely solve the problem. Finally, numerical computations are performed using MATLAB.
Findings
The problem is solved analytically and it is found that there exist five coupled waves in addition to an independent micro-concentration wave in the considered medium. The amplitude ratios and energy ratios of these reflected waves have also been computed numerically for a specific material.
Originality/value
The modulus values of amplitude ratios are presented graphically to exhibit the effects of angular velocity, initial stress, two-temperature, diffusion and micro-concentration parameters. The expressions of energy ratios obtained in explicit form are also depicted graphically as functions of angle of incidence. The law of conservation of energy at the free surface during reflection phenomenon is also verified.

Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to investigate the corrosion inhibition of mild steel alloy in 2 M H3PO4 solution by the pomegranate peel extract as a friendly inhibitor was studied at various temperatures, inhibitor concentrations and immersion times.
Design/methodology/approach
A weight loss method was used to evaluate the corrosion rate. The experimental Taguchi design method was used for the distribution of experiments. The experimental design gave results which were impossible to show graphically. However, this problem was solved effectively with the aid of regression analysis.
Findings
Corrosion rate increased with temperature according to Arrhenius equation. It was found that the efficiency of inhibition was increased with an increase in the concentration of inhibitor and immersion time. However, this diminishes with increased temperature. According to Langmuir isotherm, the inhibitor was adsorbed physically on steel surface. The negative sign of estimated heat of adsorption suggests a stable spontaneous inhibition process. Combination of mathematical and statistical analysis was proposed to demonstrate the results of corrosion rate with high correlation coefficients. In addition, Fourier transform infrared spectrometer examinations confirmed that the organic inhibitor consists of phenolic components as main materials.
Originality/value
Using unconventional approach for evaluation of environmentally friendly inhibitor for corrosion of mild steel in phosphoric acid solution.

This study aims to develop and validate a new cavitation model that considers thermodynamic effects for high-temperature water flows.
Abstract
Purpose
This study aims to develop and validate a new cavitation model that considers thermodynamic effects for high-temperature water flows.
Design/methodology/approach
The Rayleigh–Plesset equation and “B-factor” method proposed by Franc are used to construct a new cavitation model called “thermodynamic Zwarte–Gerbere–Belamri” (TZGB) by introducing the thermodynamic effects into the original ZGB model. Furthermore, the viscous term of the Rayleigh–Plesset equation is considered in the TZGB model, and the model coefficients are formulated as a function of temperature. Cavitating flows around the NACA0015 hydrofoil under different water temperatures (25°C, 50°C and 70°C) at the angle of attack of 5° are calculated.
Findings
Results of the investigated temperatures show good agreement with the available experimental data. Given that the thermodynamic and viscosity effects are included in the TZGB model and the model coefficients are treated as a function of temperature, the TZGB model shows better performance in predicting the pressure coefficient distribution and length of cavity than the original ZGB cavitation model and other models do. The TZGB model aims to determine the thermodynamic and viscosity effects and perform better than the other models in predicting the mass transfer rate, particularly in high-temperature water.
Originality/value
The TZGB model shows potential in predicting the cavitating flows at high temperature and the computational cost of this model is similar to that of the original ZGB model.
