“…For fast-transient heat conduction, however, the resulting differential equation for temperature predicts an infinite speed of thermal signal propagation since the diffusion equation is parabolic by nature. On the other hand, with the rapid development of material processing by pulsed sources, Fourier's law breaks down in modeling laser processing of materials [2,3] or high frequency response in IC chips [4] and heat propagates as wave. The problems caused by the infinite speed of heat propagation have attracted many researchers to remove such a paradox induced by Fourier's law.…”
