Abstract

We investigate the propagation of mechanical and thermal waves in solids at cryogenic temperatures. The latter are known as the second sound phenomenon. It occurs, e.g., in dielectric solids and differs greatly from the classical case in which the heat transport proceeds by diffusion. Since Fourier’s law of heat conduction fails for modeling second sound, we apply a non-classical one. During the last two decades, the non-classical thermoelastodynamic theory of Green and Naghdi enjoys steadily growing research activities.
