The present study enlightens the two-dimensional analysis of the thermo-mechanical response for a micropolar double porous thermoelastic material with voids (MDPTMWV) by virtue of Eringen’s theory of nonlocal elasticity. Moore-Gibson-Thompson (MGT) heat equation is introduced to the considered model in the context of memory-dependent derivative and variable conductivity. By employing the normal mode technique, the non-dimensional coupled governing equations of motion are solved to determine the analytical expressions of the displacements, temperature, void volume fractions, microrotation vector, force stress tensors, and equilibrated stress vectors. Several two-dimensional graphs are presented to demonstrate the influence of various parameters, such as kernel functions, thermal conductivity, and nonlocality. Furthermore, different generalized thermoelasticity theories with variable conductivity are compared to visualize the variations in the distributions associated with the prior mentioned variables. Some particular cases are also discussed in the presence and absence of different parameters.
