It may be due to a hard drive or hard drive failure since the panic references "AHCI".
In addition to the EtreCheck report suggested by @BDAqua you should also run DriveDx and post the report here using the "Additional Text" icon which looks like a piece of paper.

Not much I can tell from that report, others might though.
Have you blown the dust out of the intakes lately?
What temperatures does this App report? Especially the GPU.
This App can be used to speed up the fans, all my iMacs would be dead without it.
Never ever ever drop fan speeds below the speed that the Mac itself is calling for.

EtreCheck is a FREE simple little diagnostic tool to display the important details of your system configuration and allow you to copy that information to the Clipboard. It is meant to be used with Apple Support Communities to help people help you with your Mac. It will not display any personal info.
Pastebin is a good place to paste the whole report if you capture the URL while there…
Whew, they've changed pastebin & made it harder, but after pasting in, click Create new paste button, then Embed button, then copy the URL...

Workable but harder for me to work with...the Note tool on the bottom of this editor's toolbar, as shown in the image, to copy and paste the output from EtreCheck. In a Reply before you click post, look for this to add longer texts...
Hi, HWTech
Sorry for late reply, I've solved the issue cleaning the air intakes per BDAqua suggestion.Thanks for your time, however I pressed the button "This solved my question" in your reply by mistake.
Hi, BDAqua
Sorry for late reply, THANK YOU for your help.I've clean the intakes and no more restarts.
Hi, BDAqua
After posting a reply thanking you, and attempting to press "This solved my question" button regarding you, the page scrolled and hit HWTech reply instead.There is no way to change that?
Great to hear it fixed it, don't worry about the award, HWTech will owe me forever! :D
I think people will see the cure. :)
