Nowadays, with extending applications of bi-layer metallic sheets in different industrial sectors, accurate specification of each layer is very prominent to achieve desired properties. In order to predict behavior of sheets under different forming modes and determining rupture limit and necking, the concept of Forming Limit Diagram (FLD) is used. Optimization problem with objective functions an...

Two-layer metallic sheets have wide applications in various industries due to their superlative characteristics. This paper presents analytical model to investigate the formability of two-layer sheets based on Marciniak and Kuckzinsky (M-K) method using Barlat and Lian non-quadratic yield criterion. FEM simulation is also performed to calculate the forming limits based on bifurcation theory. Fo...

The mechanical behavior of a metallic sandwich sheet material composed of two flat face sheets and two bi-directionally corrugated core layers is analyzed in detail. The manufacturing of the sandwich material is simulated to obtain a detailed unit cell model which accounts for the non-uniform thickness distribution and residual stresses associated with the stamping of the core layers. Virtual e...

Abstract A bi-tunable hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)-based metasurface with bi-functional phonon-induced transparency (PIT) and nearly perfect resonant absorption features in the mid-infrared (MIR) range is proposed. The metasurface, that composed of axially symmetric hBN rings, separated from a uniform thin vanadium dioxide (VO 2 ) film SiO spacing layer integrated top graphene sheet. For insul...

Recently, topological insulators (Bi2Se3, Bi2Te3 and Sb2Te3) have attracted much attention because of their bulk band gap (0.3 eV) and spin-polarized surface states with conductive massless Dirac Fermions [1]. Interestingly, Bi2Se3 has rhombohedral crystal structure which consists of Se or Bi lattices in stacked manner with the sequence of Se-Bi-Se-Bi-Se. This forms a sheet-like structure in wh...

We synthesized Bi/Bi2O3 heterojunction nanoparticles at various substrate temperatures using the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique with a pulsed Nd:YAG laser. The Bi/Bi2O3 heterojunction nanoparticles consisted of Bi nanoparticles and Bi2O3 surface layers. The average diameter of the Bi nanoparticles and the thickness of the Bi2O3 surface layer are linearly proportional to the substrate t...

We study a two-dimensional superconductor in close proximity to a two-dimensional metallic sheet. The electrons in the superconducting sheet are coupled to those in the metallic sheet by the Coulomb interaction only. We obtain an effective phase-only action for the superconductor by integrating out all the electronic degrees of freedom in the problem. The Coulomb drag of the normal electrons in...

The longitudinal optical conductivity is the most important property for graphene-baseddevices. So investigating this property for spatially separated few-layer graphene systems analytically and numerically is the main purpose of our study. Each layer can be mono- or bi-layer graphene. The density-density correlation function has been screened by the dielectric function using the random p...
