The reflection and transmission of micropolar thermoelastic plane waves at the interface between an elastic solid and micropolar generalized thermoelastic solid is discussed. The interface boundary conditions obtained contain interface stiffness (normal stiffness and transverse stiffness). The expressions for the reflection and transmission coefficients which are the ratios of the amplitudes of reflected and transmitted waves to the amplitude of incident waves are obtained for normal force stiffness, transverse force stiffness and welded contact. Numerical calculations have been performed for amplitude ratios of various reflected and transmitted waves. The variations of amplitude ratios with angle of incident wave have been depicted graphically. It is found that the amplitude ratios of reflected and transmitted waves are affected by the stiffness, micropolarity and thermal distribution of the media.

The model of two-dimensional plane waves is analyzed in a micropolar-thermoelastic solid with microtemperatures in the context of the three-phase-lag model, dual-phase-lag model, and the Green-Naghdi theory of type III. Harmonic wave analysis is used to hold the solution to the problem. Numerical results of the physical fields are visualized to show the effects of the gravity field, magnetic field, and viscosity. The expression for the field variables is obtained generally and represented graphically for a particular medium.

Erigen's nonlocal thermoelasticity model is used to study the effect of viscosity on a micropolar thermoelastic solid in the context of the multi-phase-lag model. The harmonic wave analysis technique is employed to convert partial differential equations to ordinary differential equations to get the solution to the problem. The physical fields have been presented graphically for the nonlocal micropolar thermoelastic solid. Comparisons are made with the results of three theories different in the presence and absence of viscosity as well as the gravity field. Comparisons are made with the results of three theories different for different values of the nonlocal parameter. Numerical computations are carried out with the help of Matlab software.

The present problem is concerned with the study of deformation of micropolar thermoelastic medium with voids under the influence of various sources acting on the plane surface. The analytic expressions of displacement components, force stress, couple stress, change in volume fraction field and temperature distribution are obtained in the transformed domain for Lord-Shulman (L-S) theory of thermoelasticity after applying the integral transforms. A numerical inversion technique has been applied to obtain the solution in the physical domain. The numerical results are presented graphically. Some useful particular cases have also been deduced.

In the current work, the effect of rotation and mechanical force on a nonlocal micropolar thermoelastic solid with temperature-dependent properties was discussed using Erigen's nonlocal thermoelasticity theory. The problem is resolved using Laplace transforms and Fourier series. For the nonlocal and local parameters, the physical fields have been illustrated. The numerical inversion approach is used to acquire the resulting fields in the physical domain. Based on numerical analysis, the effects of rotation, the modulus of elasticity's dependency on temperature, and nonlocal, mechanical force are examined on the physical fields.

The main concern of this article is to discuss the problem of a two-temperature fiber-reinforced micropolar thermoelastic medium with voids under the effect rotation, mechanical force in the context four different theories with memory-dependent derivative (MDD) and variable thermal conductivity. The three-phase-lag model (3PHL), dual-phase-lag model (DPL), Green-Naghdi theory (G-N II, G-N III), coupled theory, and the Lord-Shulman theory (L-S) are employed to solve the present problem. Analytical expressions of the physical quantities are obtained by using Laplace-Fourier transforms technique. Numerical results are shown graphically and the results obtained are analyzed. The most significant points are highlighted.
