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. …”

Shear behaviour of high-strength concrete beams by He, Lihua.

“…The rapidly increasing use of high strength concrete as an alternative to the more classical materials (normal strength concrete) requires knowledge by the design engineer of HSC behaviour in shear. The experimental investigation conducted in this project is important to evaluate the current design methods used for shear design of HSC beams, and the theoretical model proposed in this research for reinforced concrete element is capable of predicting not only the ultimate shear strength but also the load-deformation response of concrete elements subjected to in-plane shear and normal stresses.…”
