Abstract: Abstract. Battery analytics is emerging as a critical enabler for understanding, predicting, and optimizing the performance and safety of lithium-ion batteries. However, the development of robust analytics is complicated ...

Abstract: Three different concentrations of crumb rubber were mixed with two different asphalts by means of a wet process to investigate the effect of rubber particles on the fundamental internal structure of asphalt binders with ...

Abstract: Particle shape affects the mechanical behavior of soils, including packing density, stiffness, volume change during shear, and strength. Laboratory experiments conducted to study the mechanical response of sand mixtures ...

Abstract: This state-of-the-art review identifies and discusses the existing methods of predicting the high-cycle fatigue life, their limitations, and base-technology needs. The cycle stress-strain approach ...

Abstract: The capacity reduction of a solid-polymer-membrane-type fuel cell (PEFC) with a reformer by load leveling and by improving the efficiency of part-load operation of the reformer is considered. ...

Abstract: The energy supply method by distributed power supply is expected from the transportation loss of the power and a decrease in heat. The system using especially renewable energy and a fuel cell ...

Abstract: The power load pattern of an individual house is a set of loads that fluctuate rapidly. If it is controlled to follow a system at rapid load fluctuation, depending on the response characteristics ...

Abstract: In this paper, we present a one-dimensional (1D) melting, evaporating, and resolidifying model describing the interaction of a scanning laser beam with a metal surface wherein the continuous and ...
