Abstract

Purpose

In this work, a modified thermoelastic model of heat conduction, including higher order of time derivative, is constructed by extending the Roychoudhuri model (TPL) (Choudhuri, 2007). In this new model, Fourier’s law of heat conduction is replaced by using Taylor series expansions, including three different phase lags for the heat flux, the thermal displacement and the temperature gradient. The generalized thermoelasticity models of Lord–Shulman (Lord and Shulman, 1967), Green and Naghdi (1991), dual-phase lag (Tzou, 1996) and three-phase lag (TPL) (Choudhuri, 2007) are obtained as special cases. The paper aims to discuss these issues.

Design/methodology/approach

The aim of this work is to establish a new generalized mathematical model of thermoelasticity that includes TPL in the vector of heat flux, and in the thermal displacement and temperature gradients extending TPL model (Li et al., 2019e). In this model, Fourier law of heat conduction is replaced by using Taylor series expansions to a modification of the Fourier law with introducing three different phase lags for the heat flux vector, the temperature gradient, and the thermal displacement gradient and keeping terms up with suitable higher orders.

Findings

The established high-order three-phase-lag heat conduction model reduces to the previous models of thermoelasticity as special cases.

Originality/value

In this paper, a TPL thermoelastic model is developed by extending the Roychoudhuri (Sherief and Raslan, 2017) model (TPL) considering the Taylor series approximation of the equation of heat conduction. This model is an alternative construction to the TPL model. The new model includes high order of TPL in the vector of heat flux, and in the thermal displacement and temperature gradients.

Abstract

Purpose

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.

Design/methodology/approach

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.

Findings

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.

Originality/value

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

Abstract

Purpose

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.

Design/methodology/approach

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.

Findings

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.

Originality/value

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.

Abstract

Purpose

In the present paper, the three-phase-lag (3PHL) model, Green-Naghdi theory without energy dissipation (G-N II) and Green-Naghdi theory with energy dissipation (G-N III) are used to study the influence of the gravity field on a two-temperature fiber-reinforced thermoelastic medium.

Design/methodology/approach

The analytical expressions for the displacement components, the force stresses, the thermodynamic temperature and the conductive temperature are obtained in the physical domain by using normal mode analysis.

Findings

The variations of the considered variables with the horizontal distance are illustrated graphically. Some comparisons of the thermo-physical quantities are shown in the figures to study the effect of the gravity, the two-temperature parameter and the reinforcement. Also, the effect of time on the physical fields is observed.

Originality/value

To the best of the author’s knowledge, this model is a novel model of plane waves of two-temperature fiber-reinforced thermoelastic medium, and gravity plays an important role in the wave propagation of the field quantities. It explains that there are significant differences in the field quantities under the G-N II theory, the G-N III theory and the 3PHL model because of the phase-lag of temperature gradient and the phase-lag of heat flux.

Abstract

Purpose

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.

Design/methodology/approach

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.

Findings

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.

Originality/value

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.

Abstract

Purpose

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.

Design/methodology/approach

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.

Findings

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.

Originality/value

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.

Abstract

Purpose

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.

Design/methodology/approach

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.

Findings

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. This model has been applied to study the thermal effects in a thick circular plate subjected to a periodically varying heat source.

Practical implications

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.

Originality/value

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.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to deal with the study of plane waves and fundamental solution in a modified couple stress generalized thermoelastic solid with three-phase-lag (TPL) model of thermoelasticity.

Design/methodology/approach

It is found that for two-dimensional model, there exists two longitudinal waves, namely, longitudinal wave (P-wave), thermal wave (T-wave), and a set of coupled transverse waves (SV1 and SV2 waves). In addition, the fundamental solution for the system of differential equations for steady oscillations in terms of elementary functions has been constructed. Some properties of fundamental solution are also established. Various particular cases of interest are also deduced from the present investigations and compared with the known results.

Findings

The phase velocity, attenuation coefficient, specific loss and penetration depth are computed numerically and presented graphically to see the effect of TPL model, dual-phase-lag (DPL) model and GN-III model in the presence of couple stress parameter.

Originality/value

The results are compared with couple stress TPL model, couple stress DPL model and GN-III model.
