Generalized MGT Heat Transfer Model for an Electro-Thermal Microbeam Lying on a Viscous-Pasternak Foundation with a Laser Excitation Heat Source

Abstract

In this study, the effects of laser light on the heat transfer of a thin beam heated by an applied current and voltage are investigated. Laser heating pulses are simulated as endogenous heat sources with discrete temporal properties. The heat conduction equation is developed using the energy conservation equation and the modified Moore–Gibson–Thompson (MGT) heat flow vector. Thermal and structural analysis of Euler–Bernoulli microbeams is provided with the support of visco-Pasternak’s base with three parameters. Using the Laplace transform method, an approximation of an analytical solution is found for the field variables being examined. A comparison was made of the impacts of laser pulse length, the three foundation coefficients, and the thermal parameters on the responses to changes in measured thermophysical fields, such as deflection and temperature.
