Free vibration properties of beetle elytron plate: Composite material, stacked structure and boundary conditions by Song, Yiheng, Hao, Ning, Ruan, Sihan, He, Chaochao, Quanjin, Ma

“…The results indicate that 1) the ranking of structural parameters on the 1st order frequency from a strong to weak sequence is as follows: length-to-width ratio, core height-to-thickness ratio, foam density and skin thickness; for the 2nd order natural frequency: length-to-width ratio, skin thickness, foam density and core height-to-thickness ratio. 2) Generally, an increase in the length-to-width ratio will reduce the frequency of the BEP, and increases in the core height-to-thickness ratio and skin thickness will raise its frequency. …”

Non-Abelian adiabatic geometric transformations in a cold strontium gas by Leroux, Frederic, Miniatura, Christian, Grémaud, Benoît, Wilkowski, David, Rebhi, Riadh, Pandey, K., Chevy, F.

“…Topology, geometry, and gauge fields play key roles in quantum physics as exemplified by fundamental phenomena such as the Aharonov–Bohm effect, the integer quantum Hall effect, the spin Hall, and topological insulators. The concept of topological protection has also become a salient ingredient in many schemes for quantum information processing and fault-tolerant quantum computation. …”
