In this work, we analyze the formation of compact, anisotropic stellar configurations by following the scheme of decoupling the gravitational-field sectors within the principles of complete geometric deformation. In pursuit of this aim, we use viable stellar constraints, including density-like constraints and the zero-complexity factor scheme proposed in the context of stellar configurations. We begin with employing an appropriate metric ansatz as the initial metric potential (seed solution). Imposing the zero-complexity factor constraint allows us to fully capture the gravitational behavior of compact stellar distribution featuring anisotropic pressure. Then, the process of completely deforming the gravitational field source leads to the formation of the desired, highly dense stellar configuration. The novelty of our approach is in the implementation of zero-complexity and density-like techniques to derive the deformation functions. By solving the resulting governing equations, we obtain two solutions, which are consistent with the physical viability tests. These tests show that pressure anisotropy within the confined object greatly affects its stability. It is concluded that the direction of energy transfer between the seed-gravitational field region and the unknown generic-field generator is described by the deformation parameter., Comment: 18 pages, 5 figures

In this manuscript, we investigate the possibility of constructing anisotropic dark matter compact stars motivated by the Einasto density profile. This work develops analytical solutions for an anisotropic fluid sphere within the framework of the well-known Adler-Finch-Skea metric. This toy model incorporates an anisotropic fluid distribution that includes a dark matter component. We use the minimal geometric deformation scheme within the framework of gravitational decoupling to incorporate anisotropy into the pressure profile of the stellar system. In this context, we model the temporal constituent of the $\Theta$-field sector to characterize the contribution of dark matter within the gravitational matter source. We present an alternative approach to studying anisotropic self-gravitating structures. This approach incorporates additional field sources arising from gravitational decoupling, which act as the dark component. We explicitly verify whether the proposed model satisfies all the requirements for describing realistic compact structures in detail. We conclude that the modeling of the Einasto density model with the Adler-Finch-Skea metric gives rise to the formation of well-behaved and viable astrophysical results that can be employed to model the dark matter stellar configurations., Comment: 25 pages, 13 figures, version accepted for publication in Physics of the Dark Universe

We investigate spherically symmetric classes of anisotropic solutions within the realm of a schematic gravitational decoupling scheme, primarily decoupling through minimal geometric deformation, applied to non-rotating, ultra-compact, self-gravitational fluid distributions. In this respect, we employ the minimal complexity factor scheme to generate physically realistic models for anisotropic matter distributions, using a well-behaved model. The zero-complexity factor condition enables us to determine the deformation function for solving the decoupled system. We explore all the structure-defining scalar variables, such as density inhomogeneity, strong energy condition, density homogeneity, and the complexity factor (an alloy of density inhomogeneity and pressure anisotropy) for the decoupling constant ranging between $0$ and $1$. We observe that the anisotropy vanishes when the coupling constant is set to unity. This finding holds significance as it implies that, in the context of a zero-complexity factor approach, an anisotropic matter distribution becomes perfect without requiring any isotropy requirements. This work effectively explored the impact of complexity on the composition of self-gravitational stellar distributions. This effective approach enables the development of new, physically realistic isotropic stellar models for anisotropic matter distributions. Additionally, our findings indicate that the complexity factor in static, spherically symmetric self-gravitational objects can significantly affect the nature of the matter distribution within these systems. It is concluded that the minimally deformed Durgapal-IV model features an increasing pressure profile, and the local anisotropy of pressure vanishes throughout the model under complexity-free conditions., Comment: 18 pages, 4 figures, version accepted for publication in Classical and Quantum Gravity

Fuzzy dark matter wormhole solutions coupled with anisotropic matter distribution are explored in 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet and $f(R)$ gravity, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar. We derive the shape function for fuzzy wormholes and explore their possible stability. We study the embedding diagrams of the active gravitational mass associated with fuzzy dark matter wormholes by taking a certain shape function. Aiming to highlight the role of Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet and $f(R)$ gravity in the modeling of less complex fuzzy wormhole structures, we evaluate the complexity factor, the conservation equation, and null energy conditions. Our study reinforces more importance of uniformly distributed pressure effects throughout the less complex region than to the emergence of energy density homogeneity in the stability of fuzzy wormholes. It is shown that the active gravitational mass of the fuzzy wormhole structures varies inversely with the radial distance thereby suggesting the breaching of energy conditions at some arena of Einasto index. Furthermore, it is revealed that stable fuzzy dark matter wormhole structures exist in nature in the surroundings of cold dark matter halos and galactic bulges. The important physics understood from our analysis is that in both four-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet and $f(R)$ gravity, feasible geometries of fuzzy dark matter wormholes exist naturally in the environments of different galactic haloes., Comment: 25 pages, 16 figures

In this paper, we introduce a metric ansatz for describing spherically symmetric quantum corrected black hole (BH) space-time within an AdS background, incorporating both ordinary and phantom global monopoles. Afterwards, we focus into the thermodynamic properties of this BH, calculating essential parameters such as the Hawking temperature and the specific heat capacity. Moving forward, we analyze the effective potential of the system for both null and time-like geodesics, as well as the shadow radius of the BH. Additionally, we compute the emission rate of particles from this BH. Finally, we explore the geodesic equations of motion and visualize the trajectories of massive particles within the BH. Throughout our investigation, we examine how the presence of ordinary and phantom global monopoles, alongside the quantum corrected parameter, influences various thermal properties, the effective potential of the system, the BH shadow radius, energy emission rate, and the trajectories of massive particles. Importantly, through the generation of figures depicting these phenomena, we highlight the distinctions between results obtained with ordinary global monopoles and phantom ones, across a range of quantum corrected parameter values considering small values of the energy scale parameter., Comment: 20 Pages, 17 Figures, 2 Tables

The objective of this manuscript is to investigate the traversable wormhole solutions in the background of the $f(R, \phi)$ theory of gravity, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $\phi$ is the scalar potential respectively. For this reason, we use the Karmarkar criterion for traversable static wormhole geometry to create a wormhole shape function. The suggested shape function creates wormhole geometry that links two asymptotically flat spacetime regions and meets the necessary requirements. The embedding diagram in three-dimensional Euclidean space is also discussed in order to demonstrate the wormhole configurations. For our current analysis, we choose the suitable values of free parameters for $f(R, \phi)$ gravity models to discuss the wormhole geometry. It can be observed that our proposed shape function provides the wormhole solutions with less amount of exotic matter. It can be noticed that energy conditions especially null energy conditions are violated for all considered models. The violation of energy conditions indicates the existence of exotic matter and wormhole geometry. It is concluded that the shape function acquired through the Karmarkar technique yields validated wormhole configurations with even less exotic matter correlating to the chosen $f(R, \phi)$ gravity models., Comment: 14 pages, 12 figures

The basic aim of this manuscript is to investigate the cosmological solutions in the context of the modified $f(R, T)$ theory of gravity, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $T$ is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor. For our current work, we consider the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker space-time for finding the solutions of field equations. We investigate the nature of universe by considering acceleration expansion of universe, ultra relativistic universe, sub-relativistic universe, dust universe, radiation universe, stiff universe. Moreover, we apply the power law technique by taking two different $f(R, T)$ gravity models to observe the expanding nature of the universe. The bouncing scenario is also discussed by choosing some particular values of the model parameters and observed the energy conditions, which are satisfied for a successful bouncing model. It is also concluded that some solutions in $f(R, T)$ theory of gravity supports the concept of exotic matter and accelerated expansion of the universe due to a large amount of negative pressure., Comment: 18 pages, 10 figures

We review recently offered notions of quasi-static evolution of the axial self-gravitating structures at large-scales and the criteria to characterize the corresponding evolutionary aspects under the influence of strong curvature regimes. In doing so, we examine the axial source's dynamic and quasi-static behavior within the parameters of various modified gravity theories. We address the formalism of these notions and their possible implications in studying the dissipative and anisotropic configuration. We initiate by considering higher-order curvature gravity. The Palatini formalism of $f(R)$ gravity is also taken into consideration to analyze the behavior of the kinematical as well as the dynamical variables of the proposed problem. The set of invariant velocities is defined to comprehend the concept of quasi-static approximation that enhances the stability of the system in contrast to the dynamic mode. It is identified that vorticity and distinct versions of the structure scalars $Y_{I}$, $Y_{II}$ and $Y_{KL}$ play an important role in revealing the significant effects of a fluid's anisotropy. As another example of evolution, we check the influence of Palatini-based factors on the shearing motion of the object. A comparison-based study of the physical nature of distinct curvature factors on the propagation of the axial source is exhibited. This provides an intriguing platform to grasp the notion of quasi-static evolution together with the distinct curvature factors at the current time scenario. The importance of slowly evolving axially symmetric regimes will be addressed through the distinct modified gravitational context. Finally, we share a list of queries that, we believe, deserve to be addressed in the near future., Comment: 43 pages

The collapsing dynamics of relativistic fluid are explored in $f(R)$ gravity in a detailed systematic manner for the non-static spherically symmetric spacetime satisfying the equation of the conformal Killing vector. With quasi-homologous condition and diminishing complexity factor condition, exact solutions for dissipative as well as for non-dissipative systems are found and the astrophysical applications of these exact solutions are discussed. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that $f(R)=R$, which is the extensive restriction of $f(R)$ gravity, prior solutions of the collapsing fluid in general relativity, can be retrieved., Comment: 26 pages, version accepted for publication in the European Physical Journal C

Anisotropic spherically symmetric solutions within the framework of the Brans-Dicke theory are uncovered through a unique gravitational decoupling approach involving a minimal geometric transformation. This transformation effectively divides the Einstein field equations into two separate systems, resulting in the alteration of the radial metric component. The first system encompasses the influence of the seed source, derived from the metric functions of the isotropic Tolman IV solution. Meanwhile, the anisotropic source is subjected to two specific constraints in order to address the second system. By employing matching conditions to determine the unknown constants at the boundary of the stellar object, a comprehensive examination of the internal structure of stellar systems ensues. This investigation delves into the impact of the decoupling parameter, the Brans-Dicke parameters, and a scalar field on the structural characteristics of anisotropic spherically symmetric spacetimes, all while considering the strong energy conditions., Comment: 15 pages, 5 figures, version accepted for publication in the European Physical Journal C

This work is concerned to study the bouncing nature of the universe for an isotropic configuration of fluid $\mathcal{T}_{\alpha\beta}$ and Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker metric scheme. This work is carried out under the novel $f(\mathcal{G},\mathcal{T}_{\alpha \beta} \mathcal{T}^{\alpha \beta})$ gravitation by assuming a specific model i.e, $f(\mathcal{G},\mathcal{T}^2)=\mathcal{G}+\alpha \mathcal{G}^2+2\lambda \mathcal{T}^2$ with $\alpha$ and $\lambda$ are constants, serving as free parameters. {The terms $\mathcal{G}$ and $\mathcal{T}^2$ served as an Gauss-Bonnet invariant and square of the energy-momentum trace term as an inclusion in the gravitational action respectively, and is proportional to $\mathcal{T}^2=\mathcal{T}_{\alpha \beta} \mathcal{T}^{\alpha \beta}$.} A specific functional form of the Hubble parameter is taken to provide the evolution of cosmographic parameters. A well known equation of state parameter, $\omega(t)=-\frac{k \log (t+\epsilon )}{t}-1$ is used to represent the dynamical behavior of energy density, matter pressure and energy conditions. A detailed graphical analysis is also provided to review the bounce. Furthermore, all free parameters are set in a way, to make the supposed Hubble parameter act as the bouncing solution and ensure the viability of energy conditions. Conclusively, all necessary conditions for a bouncing model are checked., Comment: Physica Scripta accepted version

We study the effects of magnetic fields of non-linear electrodynamics in chameleonic Brans-Dicke theory under the existence of anisotropic spherical fluid. In particular, we explore dissipative and non-dissipative self-gravitating systems in the quasi-homologous regime with the minimal complexity constraint. As a result, under the aforementioned circumstances, several analytic solutions are found. Furthermore, by analyzing the dynamics of a dissipative fluid, it is demonstrated that a void covering the center can satisfy the Darmois criteria. The temperature of the self gravitating systems is also investigated., Comment: 26 pages, version accepted for publication in General Relativity and Gravitation

This manuscript aims to establish the gravitational junction conditions(JCs) for the $f(\mathcal{G},~T)$ gravity. In this gravitational theory, $f$ is an arbitrary function of Gauss-Bonnet invariant $\mathcal{G}$ and the trace of the energy-momentum tensor $T_{\mu\nu}$ i.e., $T$. We start by introducing this gravity theory in its usual geometrical representation and posteriorly obtain a dynamically equivalent scalar-tensor demonstration on which the arbitrary dependence on the generic function $f$ in both $\mathcal G$ and $T$ is exchanged by two scalar fields and scalar potential. We then derive the JCs for matching between two different space-times across a separation hyper-surface $\Sigma$, assuming the matter sector to be described by an isotropic perfect fluid configuration. We take the general approach assuming the possibility of a thin-shell arising at $\Sigma$ between the two space-times. However, our results establish that, for the distribution formalism to be well-defined, thin-shells are not allowed to emerge in the general version of this theory. We thus obtain instead a complete set of JCs for a smooth matching at $\Sigma$ under the same conditions. The same results are then obtained in the scalar-tensor representation of the theory, thus emphasizing the equivalence between these two representations. Our results significantly constrain the possibility of developing models for alternative compact structures supported by thin-shells in $f(\mathcal{G},~T)$ gravity, e.g. gravastars and thin-shell wormholes, but provide a suitable framework for the search of models presenting a smooth matching at their surface, from which perfect fluid stars are possible examples., Comment: 27 pages, 1 figure, version submitted for publication

One of the possible potential candidates for describing the universe's rapid expansion is modified gravity. In the framework of the modified theory of gravity $f(R,G)$, the present work features the materialization of anisotropic matter, such as compact stars. Specifically, to learn more about the physical behavior of compact stars, the radial, and tangential pressures as well as the energy density of six stars namely $Her X-1$, $SAXJ1808.4-3658$, $4U1820-30$, $PSR J 1614 2230$, $VELA X-1$, and $Cen X-3$ are calculated. Herein, the modified theory of gravity $f(R,G)$ is disintegrated into two parts i.e. the $\tanh$ hyperbolic $f(R)$ model and the three different $f(G)$ model. The study focuses on graphical analysis of compact stars wherein the stability aspects, energy conditions, and anisotropic measurements are mainly addressed. Our calculation revealed that, for the positive value of parameter n of the model $f(G)$, all the six stars behave normally., Comment: Some changes have been made.

This study focuses on the impact of the cosmological constant on hyperbolically symmetric matter configurations in static background. We extend the work of Herrera \cite{herrera2021hyperbolically} and describe the influences of such repulsive character on a few realistic features of hyperbolical anisotropic fluids. After describing Einstein-$\Lambda$ equations of motion, we elaborated the corresponding mass function along with its conservation laws. In our study, besides observing negative energy density, we notice the formation of Minkowskian core as matter content is compelled itself not to follow inward motion near the axis of symmetry. Three families of solution are found in $\Lambda$-dominated epoch. First is calculated by keeping zero value to Weyl scalar, while the second solution maintains zero complexity in the subsequent changes of the hyperbolical compact object. However, the last model encompasses stiff fluid within the self-gravitating system. Such type of theoretical setup suggests its direct link to study a few particular quantum scenarios where negative behavior of energy density is noticed at $\Lambda$ dominated regime., Comment: 14 pages, 4 figures, version accepted for publications in Universe

In this paper, the quasi static-approximation on the hydrodynamics of compact objects is proposed in $f(R, T)$ gravity, where $R$ is the scalar curvature and $T$ is the trace of stress-energy tensor, by exploring the axial and reflection symmetric space time stuffed with anisotropic and dissipative matter contents. The set of invariant-velocities is defined to comprehend the concept of quasi static-approximation. As a consequence, the evolution of compact objects is shown by analyzing the corresponding modified field, dynamical and scalar equations in this approximation to evoke all the feasible outcomes. Furthermore, the significance of kinematical quantities, modified heat-fluxes and scalar variables are found through the proposed approximation., Comment: 26 pages, version accepted for publication in General Relativity and Gravitation

This paper aims to analyze the generalization of Lema\^{\i}tre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) spacetime for dissipative dust under the influence of Palatini $f(R)$ gravity. We explore the modified field equations, kinematical variables, and mass function in this scenario. We construct Bianchi identities using conservation and differential equations for shear, expansion, and curvature scalar in the background of Palatini $f(R)$ gravity. We calculated the scalar functions coming from the orthogonal decomposition of the Riemann tensor in this framework. These scalar functions known as structure scalars have been explored for LTB spacetime using modified field equations. The symmetric properties of LTB spacetime have been discussed using two subcases. We found that generalized LTB spacetime has properties comparable with LTB and obtained structure scalars in both cases which have a similar dependence on a material profile even in Palatini gravity., Comment: 21 pages

The basic objective of this investigation is to explore the impact of a novel gravitational modification, specifically, the $f(\mathcal{G}, \mathbf{T}^2)$ (where $\mathbf{T}^2 \equiv T_{\alpha\beta}T^{\alpha\beta}$, $T^{\alpha\beta}$ denotes the stress-energy tensor) model of gravitation, upon the complexity of time-dependent dissipative as well as non-dissipative spherically symmetric celestial structures. To find the complexity factor $(\mathbb{C}_{\mathbf{F}})$ from the generic version of the structural variables, we performed Herrera's scheme for the orthogonal cracking of Riemann tensor. In this endeavor, we are mainly concerned with the issue of relativistic gravitational collapse of the dynamically relativistic spheres fulfilling the presumption of minimal $\mathbb{C}_{\mathbf{F}}$. The incorporation of a less restrictive condition termed as quasi-homologous $(\mathbb{Q}_{\mathbf{H}})$ condition together with the zero $\mathbb{C}_{\mathbf{F}}$, allows us to formulate a range of exact solutions for a particular choice of $f(\mathcal{G}, \mathbf{T}^2)$ model. We find that some of the given exact solutions relax the Darmois junction conditions and describe thin shells by satisfying the Israel conditions, while some exhibit voids by fulfilling the Darmois constraints on both boundary surfaces. Eventually, few expected applications of the provided solutions in the era of modern cosmology are debated., Comment: Revision submitted to Physics of the Dark Universe

Flax fibre reinforced composites are becoming popular in the automotive and civil industries due to their environmentally friendly nature in terms of production and recycling and for their good specific strength. Textile structures undergo transverse compaction during composite manufacturing which changes the fabric thickness and ultimately fibre volume fraction of composites. Here, different flax fibre structures were investigated for compaction behaviour during composite forming to study the thickness changes of these fabrics under pressures between 1 and 10 bars. A range of composite manufacturing processes including vacuum infusion, autoclave curing and resin transfer moulding were utilised. These fabrics were studied in single and multi layer states, in dry and wet states, under different loading cycles and in different orientations of the fabric plies (00/00 and 00/900). Nesting of the layers has been calculated for single plies and for multi-layer stacks of dry fabrics. It was observed that under transverse compression, the structure of the preform plays a vital role in determining the thickness of the preform. The compressibility pattern of these various structures was also dissimilar for single layer and multi-layer stack which was attributed to the different nesting behaviours of these flax fibre structures., Comment: 37 pages, 24 figures

All-polymer syntactic foams are studied under large strain cyclic and monotonic tensile loading in order to reveal their tensile stress-strain behaviour, recoverability, tensile strength, and elongation at break. The syntactic foam under study here consists of hollow thermoplastic microspheres (HTMs) of two distinct grades (551 and 920), with distributions of mean-wall thicknesses and diameters, embedded inside a polyurethane matrix in various volume fractions. Cyclic loading-unloading curves are recorded, revealing the level of viscoelasticity exhibited by the materials (which becomes a stronger effect with increasing volume fractions of HTMs) and indicating the level of repeatability of loading under large strain. Samples are also subjected to monotonic tensile loading in order to study their elongation at break. Higher volume fractions of HTMs increase the stiffness of the material and whilst it is observed that the materials are highly elastic over a wide range of tensile strains, damage arises at lower levels of strain for more highly filled materials. The HTM syntactic foams thus exhibit lower breaking strains compared to the neat matrix, which is attributed to matrix-microsphere interfacial debonding. Furthermore, by employing optimization techniques, linear elastic properties of the microspheres and an average shell thickness of the 551 grade are inferred by comparing experimental results to predictions from the Generalized Self-Consistent Method, incorporating polydispersity data on the size distribution of the microspheres. These results complement previous work which involved direct experimental measurements of the 920 grade shell thickness. Results also indicate that the characterization of microsphere properties is not critically dependent on access to high resolution microsphere diameter distribution data, provided that an accurate representative mean diameter is known., Comment: 31 pages, 14 figures

This manuscript copes with the issue of analyzing the conditions to check the stability of the pressure isotropy condition by taking into account a spherically symmetric dissipative astrophysical configuration with the Palatini $f(R)$ gravity theory. We work out a differential equation in terms of the Weyl scalar that has a crucial part in the analysis of the evolution of the considered system. Using this equation, we devise another stellar equation that characterizes the evolution of anisotropic factor. Later, we assume an axially symmetric configuration and extended our analysis for that particular symmetry. It is worth observing that the physical factors responsible for compelling an initially isotropic object to trigger pressure anisotropy incorporate energy density, dissipative flux, and shear in fluid flow., Comment: 23 pages, no figure

We pursue a coherent analysis of hyperbolically symmetric static sources by extending the work of Herrera \cite{26} to the case of electromagnetic field. We deeply analyze the impact of such a force on the physical characteristics of the hyperbolically symmetric spacetime under consideration. Setting off the Einstein's gravitational equations, we particularize the stress-energy tensor by keeping in mind the constituents of tetrad field in Minkowski coordinate system. Hyperbolically symmetric source has a vacuole in the vicinity of its center, i.e., such a distribution is unable to fill the central zone of symmetry. In all the stellar expressions, the energy density of the source comes out to be negative which demonstrates that quantum effects must be involved along with certain extreme restrictions to explicate any physical application of such a hyperbolically symmetric source. Various explicit exact solutions along with their corresponding generating functions are also worked out., Comment: 23 pages, version accepted for publication in European Physical Journal Plus

In this paper, we analyze a few physical characteristics of gravastar with cylindrical geometry in $f(R,T)$ theory, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $T$ is the trace of energy-momentum tensor. The gravastar is generally considered to be a substitute of a black hole with three different regions. In the present work, we examine the formulation of gravastar-like cylindrical structures in $f(R,T)$ theory. By using Darmois and Israel matching conditions, we formulate a mass function of a thin shell. We calculate the different physical characteristics of gravastar, in particular, entropy within the thin shell, proper length of the intermediate thin shell as well as energy of the shell., Comment: 16 pages, 4 figures, version accepted for publication in International Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics

The utmost concern of this article is the construction of modified scalar functions (structure scalars) by taking Palatini $f(R)$ gravitational theory into account. At first, a general formalism is established in which we assess gravitational stellar equations by putting into use the Palatini's technique. Later, from the perspective of tilted observer, we Lorentz boosted the components of energy-momentum tensor using relative velocity $\omega$. To examine the physical as well as mathematical aspects of the fluid source, we carry out a detailed analysis of kinematical variables by evaluating shear tensor and scalar, four-acceleration and expansion scalar. For the fluid content inside our spherical star, we inferred the mass function (geometric mass) and the active gravitational mass. Raychaudhuri equation, Bianchi identities in addition to few other equations are worked out to discern the structure formation and analyze the object's evolutionary stages. The Riemann tensor is then broken up orthogonally to set up few scalar functions connected with fundamental physical characteristics of the fluid source like energy density, effects of tidal forces and anisotropic stresses etc., Comment: 33 pages, version accepted for publications in Chinese Journal of Physics

This paper is aimed to study the influence of electromagnetic field and tilted congruences on the dynamical features of self-gravitating system. We shall explore the stability of homogeneous energy density in the background of Maxwell-Palatini $f(R)$ gravity. In this respect, we have considered an irrotational non-static planar geometry which is assumed to have two different types of gravitating sources. The role of tilted congruences and the geodesic motion of an evolving system is studied through the divergence of the entropy vector field. The condition for the emergence of Minskoskian cavity is also explored. In order to connect tilted and non-tilted reference frames with inflationary and inverse Ricci scalar corrections in the charged medium, few well-consistent relations are presented. It is concluded that effective electric charge is trying to increase the stability of regular energy density of the planar system., Comment: 26 pages, 2 figures

The aim of this paper is to explore the complexity factor (CF) for those self-gravitating relativistic spheres whose evolution proceeds non-dynamically. We are adopting the definition of CF mentioned in \cite{PhysRevD.97.044010}, modifying it to the static spherically symmetric case, within the framework of a modified gravity theory (the Palatini $f(R)$ theory). In this respect, we have considered radial dependent anisotropic matter content coupled with spherical geometry and determined the complexity factor involved in the patterns of radial evolution. We shall explore the field and a well-known Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations. After introducing structure scalars from the orthogonal decomposition of the Riemann tensor, we shall calculate complexity factor. An exact analytical model is presented by considering firstly ansatz provided by Gokhroo and Mehra. The role of matter variables and $f(R)$ terms are analyzed in the structure formation as well as their evolution through a complexity factor., Comment: 20 pages, 0 figures, version published in Physica Scripta

The aim of this paper is to generalize the definition of complexity for the static self-gravitating structure in $f(R,T,Q)$ gravitational theory, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar, $T$ is the trace part of energy momentum tensor and $Q\equiv R_{\alpha\beta}T^{\alpha\beta}$. In this context, we have considered locally anisotropic spherical matter distribution and calculated field equations and conservation laws. After the orthogonal splitting of the Riemann curvature tensor, we found the corresponding complexity factor with the help of structure scalars. It is seen that the system may have zero complexity factor if the effects of energy density inhomogeneity and pressure anisotropy cancel the effects of each other. All of our results reduce to general relativity on assuming $f(R,T,Q)=R$ condition., Comment: Accepted by MNRAS

In this paper, we have continued the work of Herrera \emph{et al.} \cite{herrera2012dynamical} in $f(G)$ gravitational theory. For this purpose, a spherically symmetric fluid exhibiting locally anisotropic pressure along with the energy density, is taken under consideration. The perturbation scheme is imposed on modified field equations and the dynamical equations. The collapse equation is devised from these perturbed equations which stimulates to disclose the instability zone under both Newtonian and post-Newtonian constraints. It is wrapped up by concluding that dynamical instability is interpreted by the adiabatic index $\Gamma$ which relies on the anisotropic pressure, energy density and the dark source terms due to $f(G)$ gravity., Comment: 25 pages, no figure, version accepted for publication in Physical Review D

In this paper, we investigate irregularities in a cylindrical self-gravitating system which contains the properties of an imperfect matter and electromagnetic field. For $f(R,T,Q)$ theory, in which $R$ represents the Ricci scalar and $T$ shows the trace of matter stress-energy tensor while $Q\equiv R_{\gamma\delta}T^{\gamma\delta}$, the field equations containing electric charge, mass functions and Darmois junction conditions at the hypersurface are examined. We have adopted new definition of complexity introduced by Herrera \cite{herrera2018new}, generalized it for the static charged cylindrically symmetric case in $f(R,T,Q)$ theory by performing a detailed analysis on the orthogonal splitting of the Riemann curvature tensor. One of the effective scalars, $Y_{TF}$, has been recognized as a complexity factor. This factor is comprised of certain physical components of the fluid such as irregularity in energy density, locally pressure anisotropy and electric charge (arranged in a specific way). In addition, the effects of extra curvature terms of modified gravity are examined by making the relations among the complexity factor, Weyl scalar and Tolman mass., Comment: 29 pages, version accepted fr publication in Physics of the Dark Universe

In this paper, we discuss some feasible features of gravastar that were firstly demonstrated by Mazur and Mottola. It is already established that gravastar associates the de-Sitter spacetime in its inner sector with the Schwarzschild geometry at its exterior through the thin shell possessing the ultra-relativistic matter. We have explored the singularity free spherical model with a particular equation of state under the influence of $f(R,G)$ gravity, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $G$ is the Gauss-Bonnet term. The interior geometry is matched with a suitable exterior using Israel formalism. Also, we discussed a feasible solution of gravastar which describes the other physically sustainable factors under the influence of $f(R,G)$ gravity. Different realistic characteristics of the gravastar model are discussed, in particular, shell's length, entropy, and energy. A significant role of this particular gravity is examined for the sustainability of gravastar model., Comment: 21 pages, 4 figures

The aim of this paper is to present the definition of complexity for static self-gravitating anisotropic matter proposed in $f(G,T)$ theory, where $G$ is the Gauss-Bonnet term and $T$ is the trace of energy momentum tensor. We evaluate field equations, Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equation, mass functions and structure scalars. Among the calculated modified scalar variables that are obtained from the orthogonal splitting of Riemann tensor, a single scalar function has been identified as the complexity factor. After exploring the corresponding Tolmann mass function, it is seen that the complexity factor along with the $f(G,T)$ terms have greatly influenced its formulation and its role in the subsequent radial phases of the spherical system. We have also used couple of ansatz in order to discuss possible solutions of equations of motion in the study of the structure of compact object., Comment: 24 pages, version accepted for publication in New Astronomy

This paper is devoted to present new definition of complexity factor for static cylindrically symmetric matter configurations in $f(R,T,R_{\mu\nu}T^{\mu\nu})$ gravity. For this purpose, we have considered irrotational static cylindrical spacetime coupled with a locally anisotropic relativistic fluid. After formulating gravitational field and conservation equations, we have performed orthogonal splitting of the Riemann curvature tensor. Unlike GR (for spherical case) the one of the structure scalars $X_{TF}$, has been identified to be a complexity factor. This factor contains effective forms of the energy density, and anisotropic pressure components. Few peculiar relations among complexity factor, Tolman mass and Weyl scalar are also analyzed with the modified $f(R,T,R_{\mu\nu}T^{\mu\nu})$ corrections., Comment: 26 pages

This work is devoted to study the analytical and regular solutions of a particular self-gravitating object (i.e., gravastar) in a particular theory of gravity. We derive the corresponding field equations in the presence of effective energy momentum tensor associated with the perfect fluid configuration of a spherical system. We then describe the mathematical formulations of the three respective regions i.e., inner, shell and exterior of a gravastar separately. Additionally, the significance and physical characteristics along with the graphical representation of gravastars are discussed in detail. It is seen that under some specific constraints, $f(R,T,R_{\mu\nu}T^{\mu\nu})$ gravity is likely to host gravastars., Comment: 28 pages, 4 figures, version accepted for publication in Physics of the Dark Universe

In this work, we extend the work of gravastars to analyze the role of electromagnetic field in $f(R,T)$ gravity. We consider the irrotational cylindrically symmetric geometry and established the $f(R,T)$ field equations and conservation laws. After considering charged exterior geometry, the mathematical quantities for evaluating Israel junction conditions are being calculated. The mass of the gravastar-like cylindrical structure is calculated through the equations of motion at the hypersurface in the presence of an electromagnetic field. The behavior of electric charge on the length of the thin shell, energy content, and entropy of gravastar is being studied graphically. We concluded that charge has an important role in the length of the thin shell, energy content, and entropy of gravastar., Comment: 18 pages, 4 figures, version accepted for publication in Physics of the Dark Universe

This work is devoted to explore the effects of $f(G,T)$ terms on the study of structure scalars and their influences in the formulations of the Raychaudhuri, shear and Weyl scalar equations. For this purpose, we have assumed non-static spherically symmetric geometry coupled with shearing viscous locally anisotropic dissipative matter content. We have developed relations among the Misner-Sharp mass, Weyl scalar, matter and structure variables. We have also formulated set of $f(G,T)$ structure scalars after orthogonally breaking down of the Riemann curvature tensor. The influences of these scalar functions in the modeling of relativistic radiating spheres are also studied. The factor involved in the emergence of inhomogeneities is also explored for the constant and varying modified curvature corrections. We inferred that $f(G,T)$ structure scalars could lead provide an effective tool to study Penrose-Hawking singularity theorems and Newman-Penrose formalism., Comment: 18 pages

In this paper, we investigate the effects of electromagnetic field on the isotropic spherical gravastar models in metric $f(R,T)$ gravity. For this purpose, we have explored singularity-free exact models of relativistic spheres with a specific equation of state. After considering Reissner Nordstr\"{o}m spacetime as an exterior region, the interior charged manifold is matched at the junction interface. Several viable realistic characteristics of the spherical gravastar model are studied in the presence of electromagnetic field through graphical representations. It is concluded that the electric charge has a substantial role in the modeling of proper length, energy contents, entropy and equation of state parameter of the stellar system. We have also explored the stable regions of the charged gravastar structures., Comment: 23 pages, 6 figures, final version to appear in Physical Review D

We discuss the gravitational collapse of spherical compact objects in the background of $f(R,T,Q)$ theory, where $R$ represent the Ricci scalar, $T$ is the trace of energy momentum tensor while $Q\equiv R_{\mu\nu}T^{\mu\nu}$, and investigate the influence of anisotropy and heat dissipation in this scenario. We provide an analysis on the role of distinct material terms considered while studying the dynamical equation. The dynamical equation is coupled with a heat transport equation and discussed in the background of $f(R,T,Q)$ theory of gravity. The reduction element in the density of inertial mass, is re-acquired which is based on the internal position of thermodynamics. In collation with the equivalence relation, the reduction quantity in density is similar as appeared with gravitational force. We formulate the connection of Weyl tensor with different matter variables to see the non-identical outcomes. The inhomogeneous nature of energy density is also analyzed in the framework of modified gravity., Comment: 19 pages, no figure, version accepted for publication in JCAP

Syntactic foams are composite materials frequently used in applications requiring the properties of low density and high damage tolerance. In the present work, polymer-based syntactic foams were studied under cyclic compression in order to investigate their compressibility, recoverability, energy dissipation and damage tolerance. These syntactic foams were manufactured by adding hollow polymer microspheres of various sizes and wall thicknesses into a polyurethane matrix. The associated loading and unloading curves during cyclic testing were recorded, revealing the viscoelastic nature of the materials. SEM images of the samples were obtained in order to study potential damage mechanisms during compression. It was observed that these syntactic foams exhibit high elastic recovery and energy dissipation over a wide range of compressional strains and the addition of polymer microspheres mitigate the damage under compressional loading., Comment: 25 pages, 13 figures

This paper studies the viable regions of some cosmic models in a higher derivative $f(R,\square R, T)$ theory with the help of energy conditions (where $R$ and $T$ are the Ricci scalar, and trace of energy momentum tensor, respectively). For this purpose, we assume a flat Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker metric which is assumed to be filled with perfect fluid configurations. We take two distinct realistic models, that might be helpful to explore stable regimes of cosmological solutions. After taking some numerical values of cosmic parameters, like crackle, snap, jerk (etc) as well as viable constraints from energy conditions, the viable zones for the under observed $f(R,\square R, T)$ models are examined., Comment: 11 pages, 8 figures, version accepted for publication in the Modern Physics Letters A

This paper explores the circular geodesics of neutral test particles on an equatorial plane around a rotating black hole. After using equations of motion of scalar-tensor-vector gravity with the circular geodesics of null-like particles, we find the equation of photon orbit. With the help of an effective potential form, we have examined the stable regimes of photons orbits. The Lyapunov exponent, as well as the effective force acting on photons, is also investigated. We examine the energy extraction from a black hole via Penrose process. Furthermore, we discuss the negative energy state and the efficiency of energy extraction. We have made compare our results with that obtained for some well known black holes models. We concluded that the efficiency of the energy extraction decreases with the increase of dimensionless parameter of theory and increases as spin parameter increases., Comment: 24 pages, 9 figures

In this paper, we study the effects of modification of gravity on the problem of dynamical instability of the spherical relativistic anisotropic interiors. We have considered non-zero influence of expansion scalar throughout during the evolutionary phases of spherical geometry that led to the use of fluid stiffness parameter. The modified hydrostatic equation for the stellar anisotropic matter distributions is constructed and then solved by using radial perturbation scheme. Such a differential equation can be further used to obtain instability constraints at both weak field and post-Newtonian approximations after considering a particular Harrison-Wheeler equation of state. This approach allows us to deal with the effects of usual and effective matter variables on the stability exotic stellar of self-gravitating structures., Comment: 24 pages, no figure, version accepted for publication in the European Physical Journal A

In this paper, we examined the viability bounds of a higher derivative $f(R,\Box R, T)$ theory through analyzing energy conditions (where $R$ and $T$ are the Ricci scalar and trace of energy momentum tensor, respectively). We take flat Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker spacetime coupled with ideal configurations of matter content. We consider three different realistic models of this gravity, that could be utilized to understand the stability of cosmological solutions. After constructing certain bounds mediated by energy conditions, more specifically weak energy condition, we discuss viable zones of the under considered modified models in an environment of recent estimated numerical choices of the cosmic parameters., Comment: 24 pages, 8 figures

The present paper is aimed to study thermodynamical properties of phase transition for regular charged black holes. In this context, we have considered two different forms of black hole metrics supplemented with exponential and logistic distribution functions and investigated the recent expansion of phase transition through grand canonical ensemble. After exploring the corresponding Ehrenfest's equation, we found the second order background of phase transition at critical points. In order to check the critical behavior of regular black holes, we have evaluated some corresponding explicit relations for the critical temperature, pressure and volume and draw certain graphs with constant values of Smarr's mass. We found that for the BH metric with exponential configuration function, the phase transition curves are divergent near the critical points, while glassy phase transition has been observed for the Ay\'{o}n-Beato-Garc\'{i}a-Bronnikov BH in $n=5$ dimensions., Comment: 26 pages, 11 figures

The present paper is devoted to investigate the possible emergence of relativistic compact stellar objects through modified $f(R,T)$ gravity. For anisotropic matter distribution, we used Krori and Barura solutions and two notable and viable $f(R,T)$ gravity formulations. By choosing particular observational data, we determine the values of constant in solutions for three relativistic compact star candidates. We have presented some physical behavior of these relativistic compact stellar objects and some aspects like energy density, radial as well as transverse pressure, their evolution, stability, measure of anisotropy and energy conditions., Comment: 27 pages, 13 figures, version accepted for publication in European Physical Journal C

This paper aims to explore some realistic configurations of anisotropic spherical structures in the background of metric $f(R)$ gravity, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar. The solutions obtained by Krori and Barua are used to examine the nature of particular compact stars with three different modified gravity models. The behavior of material variables is analyzed through plots and the physical viability of compact stars is investigated through energy conditions. We also discuss the behavior of different forces, equation of state parameter, measure of anisotropy and Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equation in the modeling of stellar structures. The comparison from our graphical representations may provide evidences for the realistic and viable $f(R)$ gravity models at both theoretical and astrophysical scale., Comment: 23 pages, 13 figures, version accepted for publication in European Physical Journal C

This work is aimed to explore the dark dynamical effects of $f(R,T)$ modified gravity theory on the dynamics of compact celestial star. We have taken the interior geometry as spherical star which is filled with imperfect fluid distribution. The modified field equations are explored by taking a particular form of $f(R,T)$ model, i.e., $f(R,T)=f_1(R)+f_2(R)f_3(T)$. These equations are then utilized to formulate the well-known structure scalars under the dark dynamical effects of this higher order gravity theory. Also, the evolution equations for expansion and shear are formulated with the help of these scalar variables. Further, all this analysis have been made under the condition of constant $R$ and $T$. We found a crucial significance of dark source terms and dynamical variables on the evolution and density inhomogeneity of compact objects., Comment: 18 pages, 4 figures, version accepted for publication in European Physical Journal C

The aim of this paper is to perform stability analysis of anisotropic dissipative cylindrical collapsing model in $f(R,T,R_{\mu\nu} T^{\mu\nu})$ gravity. In this context, the modified version of hydrodynamical equation is explored by means of dynamical equations and radial perturbation scheme. We examined the role of adiabatic index, dissipation as well as the particular cosmological model on the onset of dynamical instability of the evolving cylindrical system that was initially in hydrostatic equilibrium with Newtonian and post Newtonian approximations. It is pointed out that extra curvature terms of $f(R,T,R_{\mu\nu}T^{\mu\mu\nu})$ gravity tends to increase the stability, while that heat radiations push the system to enter into unstable window. Further, our results reveal the significance of adiabatic index in the stability analysis of cylindrical celestial model., Comment: 28 pages, no figure

In this paper, we have considered flat Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker metric in the framework of perfect fluid models and modified $f(G)$ gravity (where $G$ is the Gauss Bonnet invariant). Particularly, we have considered particular realistic $f(G)$ configurations that could be used to cure finite-time future singularities arising in the late-time cosmic accelerating epochs. We have then developed the viability bounds of these models induced by weak and null energy conditions, by using the recent estimated numerical figures of the deceleration, Hubble, snap and jerk parameters., Comment: 17 pages, 5 figures, version accepted for publication in General Relativity and Gravitation

The aim of this paper is to investigate the stable/unstable regimes of the non-static anisotropic filamentary stellar models in the framework of $f(R,T,R_{\mu\nu}T^{\mu\nu})$ gravity. We construct the field equations and conservation laws in the perspective of this gravity. The perturbation scheme is applied to analyze the behavior of a particular $f(R,T,R_{\mu\nu}T^{\mu\nu})$ cosmological model on the evolution of cylindrical system. The role of adiabatic index is also checked in the formulations of instability regions. We have explored the instability constraints at Newtonian and post-Newtonian limits. Our results reinforce the significance of adiabatic index and dark source terms in the stability analysis of celestial objects in modified gravity., Comment: 29 pages, no figure, version accepted for publication in European Physical Journal C

The study of perturbation of self-gravitating celestial cylindrical object have been carried out in this paper. We have designed a framework to construct the collapse equation by formulating the modified field equations with the background of $f(R,T)$ theory as well as dynamical equations from the contracted form of Bianchi identities with anisotropic matter configuration. We have encapsulated the radial perturbations on metric and material variables of the geometry with some known static profile at Newtonian and post-Newtonian regimes. We examined a strong dependence of unstable regions on stiffness parameter which measures the rigidity of the fluid. Also, the static profile and matter variables with $f(R,T)$ dark source terms control the instability of compact cylindrical system.
