“…They proved that heat dissipation alone is sufficient to stabilize the system in both cases and then concluded that the Timoshenko–Fourier and the Timoshenko–Cattaneo systems have the same decay rate, which depends on a certain stability number (which is a function of the parameters of the system) as identified previously by Santos et al in for Timoshenko system in a bounded domain. See also and for similar results. For more papers related to the second sound, we refer the reader to , and the references thereinIn this present work, we consider …”
