The Bogomol’nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) multi-wall solutions are constructed in supersymmetric U(NC) gauge theories in five dimensions with NF(> NC) hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. Exact solutions are obtained with full generic moduli for infinite gauge coupling and with partial moduli for finite gauge coupling. The generic wall solutions require nontrivial configurations fo...

Dynamic modulus characterizes the viscoelastic behavior of asphalt materials and is the most important input parameter for design and rehabilitation of flexible pavements using Mechanistic–Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG). Laboratory determination of dynamic modulus is very expensive and time consuming. To overcome this challenge, several predictive models were developed to determine dyn...

OBJECTIVE Injury-predictive finite element (FE) models of the chest must reproduce the structural coupling behavior of the costal cartilage accurately. Gross heterogeneities (the perichondrium and calcifications) may cause models developed based on local material properties to erroneously predict the structural behavior of cartilage segments. This study sought to determine the pseudo-elastic ef...

We find a new class of metastable de Sitter solutions in compactifications of six-dimensional supergravity motivated by type IIB or heterotic string vacua. Two Fayet-Iliopoulos terms of a local U(1) symmetry are generated by magnetic flux and by the Green-Schwarz term canceling the gauge anomalies, respectively. The interplay between the induced D term, the moduli dependence of the effective ga...

For each algebraic number [Formula: see text], a result of Habegger [P. Habegger, Singular moduli that are units, Algebra Number Theory 9(7) (2015) 1515–1524] shows there only finitely many singular text] such is an unit. His uses Duke’s Equidistribution Theorem and thus not effective. In this paper, we give effective proof Habegger’s assuming modulus itself. We explicit bound, which depends on...

We construct a lepton flavour model based on two A4 modular symmetries. The are broken by bi-triplet field to the diagonal subgroup, resulting in an effective symmetry with moduli. employ these moduli as stabilisers, that preserve distinct residual symmetries, enabling us obtain Tri-Maximal 2 (TM2) mixing minimal content, flavonless at scale, below breaking single A4.

We consider twisted moduli contributions to supersymmetry breaking in effective type I string constructions involving intersecting D5i and D9-branes using Goldstino angles to parametrise the supersymmetry breaking. It is well known that twisted moduli enter at tree-level into the gauge kinetic functions, and can provide new sources of gaugino mass if they develop F-term vacuum expectation value...

The N = 1 effective action for generic type IIA Calabi-Yau orientifolds in the presence of background fluxes is computed from a Kaluza-Klein reduction. The Kähler potential, the gauge kinetic functions and the flux-induced superpotential are determined in terms of geometrical data of the Calabi-Yau orientifold and the background fluxes. The moduli space is found to be a Kähler subspace of the N...

Elastic constants of rock materials are the basic parameters required for modeling response under mechanical loads. Experimental tests determining these properties expensive, time-consuming and suffer from a high uncertainty due to both experimental limitations heterogeneous nature materials. To avoid such difficulties, in this paper method is suggested elastic by their porosity modal compositi...

The Heavy Weight Deflectometer (HWD) test is one of the most widely used tests for assessing the structural integrity of airport pavements in a non-destructive manner. The elastic moduli of the individual pavement layers predicted from the HWD deflection measurements through inverse engineering analysis are effective indicators of pavement layer condition. The primary objective of this study wa...
