Dual-phase-lag model for a nonlocal micropolar thermoelastic half-space subjected to gravitational field and inclined load
Purpose The purpose of this study is to analyze the disturbances in a two-dimensional nonlocal, micropolar elastic medium under the dual-phase-lag model of thermoelasticity whose surface is subjected to an inclined mechanical load. The present study is carried out under the influence of gravity. Design/methodology/approach The normal mode technique is used to obtain the exact expressions of the physical fields. Findings For inclined mechanical load, the impact of micropolarity, nonlocal parameter, gravity and inclination angle have been highlighted on the considered physical fields. Originality/value The numerical results are computed for various physical quantities such as displacement, stresses and temperature for a magnesium crystal-like material and are illustrated graphically. The study is valuable for the analysis of thermoelastic problems involving gravitational field, nonlocal parameter, micropolarity and elastic deformations.
