We studied thermal waves along nanowires to include the effects both of the surfaces and of nonlinearities. However, it could be useful to explore the effects of the heat boundary conditions in smooth- and rough-walled nanowires, as well as to consider the unsteady state characterized by a frequency-dependent temperature gradient. It will be also interesting to analyze whether Second Law is capabl

Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are composite materials with an inhomogeneous micromechanical structure. They are generally made of two components and, in contrast to traditional composites, are characterized by a compositional gradient from one component to the other.In the special case of heat-wave propagation in 3D FGMs we aim to study, in the framework of this project, the role played by
