The Effect of Mechanical Fatigue on the Lifetimes of Membrane Electrode Assemblies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Long-term durability of the membrane electrode assembly (MEA) in proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells is one of the major technological barriers to the commercialization of fuel cell vehicles. ...
On the Use of Pressure-Loaded Blister Tests to Characterize the Strength and Durability of Proton Exchange Membranes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The use of pressurized blister specimens to characterize the biaxial strength and durability of proton exchange membranes (PEMs) is proposed, simulating the biaxial stress states that are induced ...
