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. …”

Phononic real Chern insulator with protected corner modes in graphynes by Zhu, Jiaojiao, Wu, Weikang, Zhao, Jianzhou, Chen, Cong, Wang, Qianqian, Sheng, Xianlei, Zhang, Lifa, Zhao, Yuxin, Yang, Shengyuan A.

“…By using first-principle calculations and topology/symmetry analysis, we find that phonons in both graphdiyne and $\gamma$-graphyne exhibit a second-order topology, which belongs to the specific case known as real Chern insulator. We identify the nontrivial phononic band gaps, which are characterized by nontrivial real Chern numbers enabled by the spacetime inversion symmetry. …”

Truss-arch model for shear strength of shear-critical reinforced concrete columns by Pan, Zuanfeng., Li, Bing.

“…Experimental observations on 11 Reinforced Concrete (RC) columns tested at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), and existing experimental data of 79 shear-critical RC columns are presented. Significant arch action is found in columns of small shear span-to-depth ratio and high axial-load ratio under shear force. …”

"Partisan or party-shun?" : When fact-checking meets partisanship by Goh, Bryan Wei Ming

“…This experimental study aims to establish if the source of a fact check has an impact on its believability. Using a between-subjects design, 200 respondents were each presented with two mocked-up fake news Facebook posts that were manipulated by either a government or presumed non-government fact-checking effort. …”

Counter-checking uncertainty calculations in Bayesian operational modal analysis with EM techniques by Ma, Xinda, Au, Siu-Kui

“…While the existing semi-analytical approach is still preferred for Hessian calculations in applications for its high definitive accuracy and speed, the proposed Monte Carlo solution offers a convenient means for counter-checking during code development. Theoretical implications of the identity will be discussed and numerical examples will be given to illustrate implementation aspects.…”
