Abstract
Based on Green–Lindsay generalized thermoelasticity theory, this paper presents a new refined higher-order time-derivative thermoelasticity model. Thinner one-dimensional skin tissue is considered when its inner surface is free of traction and does not show any temperature increase. The skin tissue’s bounding surface has been heated by ramp-type heating. The classical thermoelastic theories are obtained from the present general formula. The governing equations of the present model are obtained. To move the system into a space state, the Laplace transform is used. The inverse of the Laplace transform is also used with Tzuo’s method to solve the problem. As a result, the field quantities are obtained numerically, and the results of the current model are graphically represented with a comparison to two different theories of thermoelasticity. The effects of various parameters on thermomechanical waves through the skin tissue are analyzed. The theory notes a vibrational behavior in heat transfer and a different effect on the parameters discussed in this article.
