Abstract In this work, the Green–Naghdi type III (GN-III) and Three-Phase-Lag (TPL) thermo-elastic theories are used to investigate Rayleigh-type surface wave propagation in a transversely isotropic piezo-thermoelastic half-space. Phase velocity, attenuation, and specific loss may be thoroughly evaluated thanks to the derivation of secular equations for electrically open/shorted and thermally insulated/isothermal boundary conditions. The findings indicate that attenuation and loss show a substantial dependency on boundary restrictions and the chosen thermoelastic model, but phase velocity increases with inclination angle and stabilises for high wave numbers. The TPL framework predicts somewhat greater velocities and damping because of thermal relaxation effects, while electrically shorted isothermal surfaces produce the lowest dissipation. By explicitly incorporating governing equations into its loss function, a Physics-Informed Neural Network (PINN) is utilised to overcome the computational burden of solving difficult transcendental equations. The PINN provides an effective stand-in for optimisation and real-time diagnostics in SAW sensors, ultrasonic devices, and smart piezoelectric materials by precisely reconstructing dispersion trends from sparse analytical data.
