Refined Dual-Phase-Lag Theory for the 1D Behavior of Skin Tissue under Ramp-Type Heating.

In this article, a mathematical analysis of thermoelastic skin tissue is presented based on a refined dual-phase-lag (DPL) thermal conduction theory that considers accounting for the effect of multiple time derivatives. The thin skin tissue is regarded as having mechanically clamped surfaces that are one-dimensional. Additionally, the skin tissue undergoes ramp-type heating on its outer surface, whereas its inner surface keeps the assessed temperature from vanishing. Some of the previous generalized thermoelasticity theories were obtained from the proposed model. The distributions of temperature, displacement, dilatation, and stress are attained by applying the Laplace transform and its numerical reversal approaches. The outcomes are explicitly illustrated to examine the significant influences on the distributions of the field variables. The refined DPL bioheat conduction model in this study predicts temperature, and the findings revealed that the model is located among the existing generalized thermoelastic theories. These findings offer a more thorough understanding of how skin tissue behaves when exposed to a particular boundary condition temperature distribution.
