Repulsive Casimir effect in Chern insulators by Tiang, Bi Hong

“…In this work, we investigate the possibility of achieving the repulsive Casimir effect between two identical Chern insulators in two directions, i.e. (i) small finite (non- zero) temperature effect on Casimir–Lifshitz interaction between 2D Chern Insulators with Chern number C = 1 and (ii) the zero temperature Casimir interaction between 2D Chern Insulators with higher Chern number C = 3, 4, 8. …”

The significant effect of hydromagnetic on carbon nanotubes based nanofluids flow and heat transfer past a porous stretching/shrinking sheet by Abdul Samat, Nazrul Azlan, Bachok, Norfifah, Md Arifin, Norihan

“…The 2D steady flow model of carbon nanotubes-based nanofluids and heat transfer past a porous stretchable or shrinkable sheet is studied analytically and numerically. A mathematical model that is governed by a system of partial differential equations (PDEs) subjected to boundary conditions is transformed into a system of dimensionless ordinary equations (ODEs). …”

Argon-plasma-induced ultrathin thermal grafting of thermoresponsive pNIPAm coating for contractile patterned human SMC sheet engineering by Rayatpisheh, Shahrzad, Li, Peng, Chan-Park, Mary B.

“…This method is optimized for human primary SMC attachment and subsequent intact cell sheet detachment by lowering the temperature. The contractile gene expression of the cells showed that the contractile phenotype of the SMCs which is induced by aligning the cells through micropatterning is more preserved after thermoresponsive cell sheet detachment in contrast with enzymatic detachment. …”
