Graphene can be turned into a semimetal with broken time-reversal symmetry by adding valley-dependent pseudo-scalar potential that shifts the Dirac point energies in opposite directions, as modified Haldane model. We consider bilayer obtained stacking two time-reversed copies of model, where conduction and valence bands cross to give rise nodal line each valleys. In AB stacking, interlayer hopp...

In this paper, a combination method has been developed by coupling Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithms (MOGA) and Finite Element Method (FEM). This method has been applied for determination of the optimal stacking sequence of laminated composite plate against buckling. The most important parameters in optimization of a laminated composite plate such as, angle, thickness, number, and material of ...

Stability of the π-π stacking interactions in the Ben||substituted-coronene and HFBen||substituted-coronene complexes was studied using the computational quantum chemistry methods (where Ben and HFBen are benzene and hexaflourobenzene, || denotes π-π stacking interaction, substituted-coronene is coronene molecule which substituted with four X groups, and X= NH2, CH3, OH, H, F, CF3, CN and NO). ...

There have been several reproductive technologies developed over the past several years. Although these technologies have great potential to improve productivity of beef and dairy operations, they have only been minimally used. The reproductive technologies that may offer great value include estrus synchronization, embryo transfer, in vitro fertilization (IVF), sex-sorted semen, and embryo spli...

Mg–Zn–Y ternary alloys containing the long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase exhibit superior mechanical properties. This is believed to be originating from LPSO acting as strengthening phase. However, we first clarify that properties of matrix Mg solid solution in Mg/LPSO two-phase alloy are significantly different those pure Mg. The yield stress a Mg99.2Zn0.2Y0.6 single crystal (matrix sol...
