Mr. Maaz Ali Khan | Best Researcher Award

University of Buner | Pakistan

Maaz Ali Khan is a researcher affiliated with the University of Buner, known for his contributions to thermoelasticity and wave propagation in advanced solid media. His work focuses on the behavior of elastic, thermal, and coupled waves in semiconductor materials and micropolar thermoelastic structures, especially under variable thermal conductivity, laser-induced thermal effects, and temperature-dependent properties. He has coauthored several peer-reviewed studies examining reflected elastic waves, Rayleigh wave behavior, and nonlocal micropolar thermoelastic responses, including investigations involving three-phase-lag models and global sensitivity analysis in rotating solids. His research appears in journals such as Acoustical Physics, Physica Scripta, Mechanics of Solids, and Case Studies in Thermal Engineering. Through his collaborative and interdisciplinary work, he continues to advance understanding of thermoelastic wave phenomena in complex materials systems.
