In this work, numerical estimations of a nonlinear hyperbolic bioheat equation under various boundary conditions for medicinal treatments of tumor cells are constructed. The heating source components in a nonlinear hyperbolic bioheat transfer model, such as the rate of blood perfusions and the metabolic heating generations, are considered experimentally temperature-dependent functions. Due to the nonlinearity of the governing relations, the finite element method is adopted to solve such a problem. The results for temperature are presented graphically. Parametric analysis is then performed to identify an appropriate procedure to select significant design variables in order to yield further accuracy to achieve efficient thermal power in hyperthermia treatments.

In this work, a new model for porothermoelastic waves under a fractional time derivative and two time delays is utilized to study temperature increments, stress and the displacement components of the solid and fluid phases in porothermoelastic media. The governing equations are presented under Lord–Shulman theory with thermal relaxation time. The finite element method has been adopted to solve these equations due to the complex formulations of this problem. The effects of fractional parameter and porosity in porothermoelastic media have been studied. The numerical outcomes for the temperatures, the stresses and the displacement of the fluid and the solid are presented graphically. These results will allow future studies to gain a detailed insight into non-simple porothermoelasticity with various phases.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to provide a method for determining the numerical solutions of the thermal damage of cylindrical living tissues using hyperbolic bioheat model. Due to the complex governing equation, the finite element approach has been adopted to solve these problems. To approve the accuracy of the numerical solution, the numerical outcomes obtained by the finite element approach are compared with the existing experimental study. In addition, the comparisons between the numerical outcomes and the existing experimental data displays that the present mathematical models are efficient tools to evaluate the bioheat transfer in the cylindrical living tissue. Numerical computations for temperatures and thermal damage are presented graphically. Design/methodology/approach In this section, the complex equation of bioheat transfer based upon one relaxation time in cylindrical living tissue is summarized by using the finite element method. This method has been used here to get the solution of equation (8) with initial conditions (9) and boundary conditions (10). The finite element technique is a strong method originally advanced for numerical solutions of complex problems in many fields, and it is the approach of choice for complex systems. Another advantage of this method is that it makes it possible to visualize and quantify the physical effects independently of the experimental limits. Abbas and his colleagues [26-34] have solved several problems under generalized thermoelastic theories. Findings In this study, the different values of blood perfusion and thermal relaxation time of the dermal part of cylindrical living tissue are used. To verify the accuracy of the numerical solutions, the numerical outcomes obtained by the finite element procedure and the existing experimental study have been compared. This comparison displays that the present mathematical model is an effective tool to evaluate the bioheat transfer in the living tissue. Originality/value The validation of the obtained results by using experimental data the numerical solution of hyperbolic bioheat equation is presented. Due to the nonlinearity of the basic equation, the finite element approach is adopted. The effects of thermal relaxation times on the thermal damage and temperature are studied.

This article focuses on the study of redial displacement, the carrier density, the conductive and thermodynamic temperatures and the stresses in a semiconductor medium with a spherical hole. This study deals with photo-thermoelastic interactions in a semiconductor material containing a spherical cavity. The new hyperbolic theory of two temperatures with one-time delay is used. The internal surface of the cavity is constrained and the density of carriers is photogenerated by a heat flux at the exponentially decreasing pulse boundaries. The analytical solutions by the eigenvalues approach under the Laplace transformation approaches are used to obtain the solution of the problem and the inversion of the Laplace transformations is performed numerically. Numerical results for semiconductor materials are presented graphically and discussed to show the variations of physical quantities under the present model.

The purpose of this study is to provide a method to investigate the effects of thermal relaxation times in a poroelastic material by using the finite element method. The formulations are applied under the Green and Lindsay model, with four thermal relaxation times. Due to the complex governing equation, the finite element method has been used to solve these problems. All physical quantities are presented as symmetric and asymmetric tensors. The effects of thermal relaxation times and porosity in a poro-thermoelastic medium are studied. Numerical computations for temperatures, displacements and stresses for the liquid and the solid are presented graphically.

This work uses the “fractional order bio-heat model” (Fob) model of heat conduction to offer a new interpretation to study the thermal damages in a skin tissue caused by laser irradiation. The influences of fractional order and the thermal relaxation time parameters on the temperature of skin tissue and the resulting thermal damage are studied. In the Laplace domain, the analytical solutions of temperature are obtained. Using the equation of Arrhenius, the resulting thermal injury to the tissues is assessed by the denatured protein ranges. The numerical results of the thermal damages and temperature are presented graphically. A parametric analysis is dedicated to the identifications of suitable procedures for the selection of significant design variables to achieve an effective thermal in the therapy of hyperthermia.

In this study, the problem of thermoelastic interaction in a microscale beam subjected to a moving heat source in the context of Green and Naghdi theory type III is investigated. The both ends of the microscale beam are clamped and thermally isolated. The basic equations have been written in the form of a vector-matrix differential equation in the Laplace transform domain, which is then solved by an eigenvalue approach. The analytical solution in the Laplace domain is obtained for lateral deflection, displacement, temperature, and stress. The effects of moving heat source speed are analyzed. The resulting quantities are depicted graphically.

In this paper, we apply the generalized thermoelastic theory with mass diffusion to a two-dimensional problem for a half-space. The surface of the half-space is taken to be traction-free and heated by laser pulse. The analytical solution is adopted for the temperature, the displacement components, concentration, the stress components and chemical potential. The nonhomogeneous basic equations have been written in the form of a vector–matrix differential equation, which is then solved using the eigenvalue approach. A comparison is made in the case of the absence and presence of a mass diffusion between the coupled and Lord–Shulman theories. The results obtained are presented graphically for the effects of the laser pulse and the mass diffusion to display the phenomena of physical significance.

The aim of this study is to propose the analytical method associated with Laplace transforms and experimental verification to estimate thermal damages and temperature due to laser irradiation by utilizing measurement information of skin surface. The thermal damages to the tissues are totally estimated by denatured protein ranges using the formulations of Arrhenius. By using Laplace transformations, the exact solution of all physical variables is obtained. Numerical results for the temperature and thermal damage are presented graphically. Furthermore, the comparisons between the numerical calculations with experimental verification show that the three-phase lag bioheat mathematical model is an efficient tool for estimating the bioheat transfer in skin tissue.

The thermoelastic interaction in an unbounded medium with a spherical cavity is studied using two-temperature generalized thermoelasticity theory. The medium is assumed to be initially quiescent. The inner surface of the cavity is taken traction free and subjected to a thermal shock. By the Laplace transformation, the basic equations are expressed in the form of a vector-matrix differential equation, which is solved by an eigenvalue approach. Some comparison have been shown in figures to estimate the effect of the two-temperature parameter.
