Although waves are ubiquitous in nature it is difficult to give a precise and unambiguous
definition of what a wave is. Actually the distinction between wave-like and non-wave-like …

We present the temperature distribution predictions for photothermal systems by considering
an extension of dual-phase lag. It is an extension of the GCE-II and GCE-III models with a …

We consider heat and diffusion equations with finite relaxation time which ensure a finite
speed of propagation of disturbances. We use the Cattaneo–Vernotte model for the heat flux …

One of the major challenges in the study of thermal transport and its analysis, based on the
hyperbolic model associated with Cattaneo equation, is the fact that it is necessary to …

We analyze the influence of the generalizations of hyperbolic (Cattaneo) heat equations
(GCE) on temperature profile and photoacoustic signal for the two-layer samples. The GCE …

The paper presents a generalized model of the photothermal response of a polymer sample.
The model is based on a linear non-Fourier heat conduction equation that considers thermal …

The Fourier heat conduction model is valid for most macroscopic problems. However, it fails
when the wave nature of the heat propagation or the time lags become dominant and the …

Molecular transport through a composite multilayer membrane is a central process in
transdermal drug delivery (TDD). Classical Fickean approach treats skin as a pseudo …

In this paper, a self-consistent inverse procedure is developed for the estimation of linear
thermal expansion coefficient and thermal diffusivity of solids from transmission …

In this paper, a theoretical model of temperature variations is derived for a two-layer optically
absorbing structure, including thermal memory effects. It is considered that the two-layer …
